    I cannot here anything at all?

  • Caitlin

    They actually are incredible musicians; maybe with some quirky lyrics and less than desirable vocals, but ultimately, they rock! This is insulting to all their yeas of practice, and expertise. I’d like to see you play guitar like Trey. Why would you do that?!

    • Cwguy5

      relax caitlin. yes they are very good. but this video is spot on and funny. get over it. you sound like the chicks screaming “JERRY!!!” at the top of their lungs at an old dead show.

    • Technobusx

      Because he who laughs, lasts. It’s insulting that you’re not willing to step out of your bus and see the guys from a different perspective. Grow up, already!

    • bobby

      i wouldnt know if they are incredible musicians with trey stepping all over everybody else and not letting anyone else take the lead, its tough to hear anyone other than the meglomaniac

        My husband is a die hard fan. I am not. He made sure I watched this. We both laughed really hard. That’s a real Phish fan – they make fun of themselves the hardest.

    • The Anti-Hippie

      For sure….stop whining. It is supposed to funny. Besides there are millions of music fans that have not and would not spend a dime this band. To each his own…and in my own opinion, Phish sux! They should have stayed broken up!!!
