East Coast Phish Summer Tour Remix

I grew up listening to bands like the Pixies, Talking Heads, The Velvet Underground, Poi Dog Pondering and Hot House Flowers, just to name a few, but I will never forget in 1992 when my brother Kev came over to Luxembourg, Europe to visit and handed me a “Picture of Nectar,” by Phish.

I remember very vividly sitting back and listening to this band that my brother claimed was going to be the next big thing. I was 13 years old at the time and the music struck me as being totally different than anything I had ever heard before.

I kept on listening and caught my first show in 1993 and spent the entire afternoon hacky sacking, listening to Blues Traveler and witnessing all these cool cats skateboarding and smiling knowing what lay in store once the rock and roll boys from Vermont hit the stage.

The crowd before me boogied as the band laid into their first notes of the evening, convincing me that there was indeed a far out world to be discovered through live music. Phish seems to have always known this since the time that they began.

Phish seems to grasp the idea very well that music can indeed take you to places in your mind where your soul asks you so often to go. Through their funky blend of thoughtfully picked out cover songs, to trail-blazing original tunes, Phish is determined to keep the very precious soul of rock and roll, in all its good and bad, alive.

The summer of 2010 exemplifies this bands commitment to a progressive rock sound that has always been there to convey a message of the far off places that music can take you if you just close your eyes and listen… Visit Phish.com to purchase and download all of their summer 2010 shows.

Happy 4th of July everyone. Thank you all so much for listening and I plan on continuing to bust out mixes of the Phinest bands New England has to serve on up.
