Phish Friday | Late Edition (again)

Man, I’m actually doing a pretty shitty job of getting out these Phish Friday’s in a timely fashion. I might have to re-think the name of the category or something…

At any rate, I’m working out some plans to ensure that your friendly Editor gets the break he needs while also maintaining a consistent posting schedule. That’d be the shit going into the new year…

For this week’s selection of music from one of my favorite bands of all time — Phish — I’m dipping into the archive from a show I saw and heard with my own two eyes and ears, (respectively). It’s hard to feel so great about the band given last week’s news. Sure, is that me being slighly melodramatic? Yes. But I have to remember the good times, also. Night one of a two-night Alpine Valley run. “Julius” to open the show. “Buffalo Bill” out of nowhere. A wild “YEM > 2001″ to end the second set. An all-out laugh riot! (but not really).

    My first Phish show…

    I still remember thinking about the crazy trampolines and vocal jams and that one song from the movie 2001. Oh how I’ve learned since.

    I really enjoyed the Julius and Roses Are Free > ACDC Bag to open the show, probably two moments that I’ll remember the longest from that show.

    But overall, a pretty darn good lineup for a first show, sad though it may have been to be the last tour…

    06/25/04 (Fri) Alpine Valley – East Troy, WI

    Set 1:
    Julius
    Roses are Free >
    AC/DC Bag
    Glide
    Anything But Me
    David Bowie
    Wolfman’s Brother
    Golgi Apparatus

    Set 2:
    Seven Below >
    Buffalo Bill >
    Lawn Boy >
