I can understand a Halloween show getting a bump and having @attendancebias.bsky.social vs the musical experience/relistenability of SPAC and 12/3.

I gotta go back to 1992-94 for that.
NEW EPISODE: The Haunt, 1990. Howard was in college in the early-90s in Ithaca. He saw Phish all 5 times in the legendary club, The Haunt. The Haunt is gone, but Howard recalls seeing Phish 5 times in 1990. Today’s episode is a look at those shows.

There's an update in the App Store for our iOS app that adds a sleep timer, the ability to view tracks played & add as many tracks to the play queue as you want, along with a back button & a handful of display & functional changes. Grab the update & take the app for a spin #phishjustjams #phish
New episode Wednesday! We remember The Haunt in #Ithaca w/ Howard Fuchs. Rather than focus on one show, Howard saw Phish at The Haunt 5 times in 1990. We memorialize the venue and those show. Boy it was fun to hear Phish when they were playing Main St. college bars.
This is glorious news. I just took advantage of this new feature to (re)listen to this quasi-show:

I like your pod and @attendancebias.bsky.social probs the most. Just comes across as relatable and genuine.
Love it when the weather map looks like a Grateful Dead t-shirt.
No. I would love that, but I think the BD blew out the motor when it comes to “residency themes.”
NEW EPISODE! We love 1997, we’ve done 1999, but ‘98 remains elusive. Phish was funky, with searing guitar rock and played unexpected covers. If we distilled 1998 into one show, it may be today’s: @solargarlicband.bsky.social takes a deep dive into 8/1/98 at Alpine.

The latest round from Lot Gossip on IG:
hot takes:
-pretty short for a summer tour
-5 MSG shows set up the 100th to be on NYE
-lots of people will be happy to go back to Dick’s.
New episode tomorrow! Matt Huber of the @solargarlicband.bsky.social reminds us of why 1998 was arguably the BEST year of 1.0 as we dive deep into 8/1/98 at Alpine Valley! Available tomorrow wherever you find podcasts!
Really fun to go on "Attendance Bias" to talk about one of the best shows I ever saw in person - 8/1/98. Listen up to hear how the Tweezer became my 'platonic ideal' of what I wanted a Phish jam to sound like for years after.
If you ever find yourself at the 8/1/98 show, do NOT eat the black gel tabs.

Matt from @solargarlicband.bsky.social joins me on Wednesday to talk about 8/1/98 at Alpine Valley! 1998 was—maybe?—the best year of 1.0. And it wasn’t all about the cover; crazy jams and fun improv galore! Available Wednesday wherever you get podcasts!
No, but I like the cut of yer jib.
NEW EPISODE: 6/9/09 at Asheville Civic Center with Derek Hill! The early summer of 2009 was mostly Phish getting back on their feet, but there were standouts (and some legitimate complaints?). Hear all about it wherever you get your podcasts!

My only non-Hampton show from that year and still probably the smallest capacity show I've seen. A fun show with a great Ghost that shouldn't be missed.
New episode Wednesday: 6/9/09 at the Asheville Civic Center w/Derek Hill! The summer of 2009 is remembered as Phish getting back on their feet. But on Wednesday, Derek tells why this early 3.0 show is overlooked and deserves its due. Available Wednesday where you get podcasts!
Hot take: I would rather see Phish at MSG in the summer than the winter.
Barrier Brewing webcast having the greatest time!
It’s today! Trivia at 5pm and webcast at 6. Hope to see you at Barrier Brewing in Long Beach, NY
Moma facts:
9 plays in 2025.
5 times in 2 spot.
7/22/25 Forest Hills and 7/12/25 North Charleston
6/20/25 Manchester
they opened with Moma
4/25/25 Hollywood it was in 3 spot.
Hope that helps.
Do you think #Phish is aware that they play "Moma" in the 2-spot every time? Is it planned? Or do you think they play the opener, and then Trey thinks: "Hm, what would be good next? OH! I KNOW! THE MOMA DANCE!" not consciously aware that it's played 2nd every time for the past ~12 years?
🚨SATURDAY NIGHT! NYC/LI area: Barrier Brewing in Long Beach is hosting a webcast, trivia, Phish Bingo, prizes, raffles, and lots of good good beer! Since the set times were released earlier this week, trivia begins at 5pm! Hope to see you there!
Snowed in? Take this time to STUDY UP for Phish webcast and trivia this coming Saturday at Barrier Brewing in Long Beach, NY! Trivia, raffles, bingo, prizes, beers, and more!
1998 at Great Woods when I was 14. Had no idea who Hot Tuna was and I was excited to hear Rusted Root. And no encore!
