11/02/2009  |  No Comments

I have a friend who I consider a big Phish fan who paid little to no attention to all the Phish Festival 8 coverage this weekend. So I was thinking, maybe he's not the only one? If there are any Phish fans out there who didn't check out the Festival 8... more

Phish Friday: Download Live From the Archives No. 14

10/30/2009  |  3 Comments

I have to post this one, not just because of the obvious reason (that it's more great live Phish), but because it comes to us courtesy of Dan, the owner of Eppie's restaurant in downtown Charlottesville, where I actually used to live just a few months ago. Check it out: "Dan,... more

The Whigs: Fall Tour Dates and New Studio Track

10/19/2009  |  No Comments

If you've read this site for a while, you'll already know how much I dig the Whigs. They play pretty straight-forward, melodic garage rock, but something about their sound just grabs me. After nabbing a killer slot playing to huge crowds while opening for Kings of Leon this summer, Parker Gispert... more

Phish released a soundcheck jam from the August 14th show in Hartford, CT earlier this month and it's actually pretty interesting. The show notes say "Trey Anastasio on bass and Jon Fishman on drums" which is what makes it more interesting for me obviously. Right now they're offering... more
