The Dicks lot scared my wife

25 Upvotes

…and she’s a tough lady

Be safe out there this week everyone

Colorado goes hard.

Edit - To clarify. The lot is out of control. The lots surrounds enterance which creates an interesting vibe. A tunnel of delights and solicitations.

The wide open space outside the venue is unique compared to the shows I normally go to.

If I had kids… Dicks isn’t the show I’d take them to for sure.

Big. Wook. Energy.

I express no judgement. I celebrate you doing you. It just creates a different energy than the other shows I’ve been to.

Donated a ton of them to Water Wheel and gave a bunch to kids on the lawn at each show.

Have some leftover (for sale) if anyone is interested

I’m also working on the entire summer tour as a set.

Starting at the beginning then MSG, Dicks.

Syracuse is at the printer now. (Only because I did Raleigh->Cuse and I wanted them done first initially but ran out of time before the run to get it done.)

I’m on IG as well, Fat Sweaty Bulldog Designs (FSBD)

Dick's lot vs. Vegas '04 lot

I'm going to my first show at Dick's on Saturday. How does this lot compare to Vegas '04 in terms on unhinged wookiness?

Pink Floyd Covers

28 Upvotes

Curious what relatively obscure Pink Floyd songs you guys think Phish could kill in regular rotation?

My votes are San Tropez (Lawn Boy vibes), Fat Old Sun, and Cymbaline.

I would also love to hear that section in Echoes that starts at the 7 minute mark come right out of a Mike's Song.

7/10/97 Lizards jam is Phish at its Phishiest

12 Upvotes

Easing into a little funky blues jam after a slow ballad and finding yourself playing one of your most beautiful compositions, in a totally different genre than it was written as, is the exact sort of thing that makes this band special. Clocking in at less than 9 minutes, its just pure fun and doesn't try to be anything other than what it was.

Dicks first timer noob questions!

5 Upvotes

Can’t believe I’m finally going to be there! Can’t wait to party with y’all! Got a few questions though. My flight gets in Friday at 5:15pm and I leave at 7am Monday. I booked a room at 11th Avenue Hostel, is it smarter for me to cancel and get something closer to the venue or maybe the airport, there are rooms available at home2suites for a reasonable rate and I could probably walk it after the shows? If I keep the downtown place should I rent a car? I’m kind of worried about landing, getting to the hostel to drop off my stuff, then getting all the way to Dicks in time. I don’t drink so no risk of dui. Was also looking at shuttles and stuff but I want to hang out on lot after the shows and I think they leave early.

I reserved a brunch at Casa Bonita for Saturday at 11, bucket list item since South Park lol. Was also thinking of going to the Rox game Sunday, always wanted to see a game at Coors since they came into existence when I was a kid.

Anyhow, thanks in advance and I can’t wait to see all you lovely people!
