okay, if phish throw the UIC run, i’ll buy drinks at the nearest bar for all bbers for an hour!
FEFY was probably first, unless you count Coil or Lawn Boy.
@ phoamhead*
*ting
light!~!!!
i dig tweezer in the second set ballad spot
@Phoam
Jak’s Tap on Jackson, a mere 0.25 mile form the front door of UIC, it is! This place has the best heady brews around.
light from the greek wins!
kfl FTW
RE: Grek Light.
“It purify’s our soul!”
just so we’re clear, I mean POWER ballads. Lawn Boy is lounge music (or an attempt at a jazz standard according to Trey). I mean like FEFY, Caspian, etc. that are ballad-y with a big guitar driven solo thingamabobber.
but yeah, I’ll take kFl’s choice too. 😆
Grek, the hipster way to pronounce Greek.
Fuck it….going Greek Hood…right now. Who’s with me?
Hitting play in …..3….2….1……..now
5-16-95 Reba = purity
yeah, caspian is a fav of mine . . .
Power and Balad
just seems like they should never be used together.
i’ll be there shortly, aqua
That’s a very good point @willowed!
Which is why TIII was using “power” with “ballad,” as those are occasionally used together.
I, for one, wouldn’t use “balad” with anything…
Lifeboy
Caspian (yeah, i said it, I like fuckerpants. Love the guitar outro)
ARRRGH
i’m an ass. upon closer inspection, the email i got back from “my guy” said
“Phish – will be a minute :)”
i thought it said will be IN a minute
sorry fellas
the reworked swept away>steep
Would Bug count as a power ballad? Great outro, ya know.
so last night’s Phish Review Club – Spring ’92 Edition was the tits. So surprised by how crazy and out there some of the jamming got, since i always have the knee-jerk reaction to that period as contained, precise, short versions. which they comparatively are when putting them up against late 90s stuff, but
4/21/92 Tweezer. Eureka is right! The recording is not ideal, as Fish’s snare has way too much echo (almost dub style), but damn that is a psychedelic freakin Tweez!
The 3/20/92 Paug is sick too.
And the 5/1/92 NICU is a great example of how they used to play it, with Trey and Mike (?) doing a falsetto vocal harmony in leiu of a Page solo. Great crispy SBD where Mike is turned way up and is super chunky.
G-cub new avatar?
@willowed
I’m shocked. as a fellow child of the 80s you should be well familiar with the genre.
Foreigner, Whitesnake, etc. etc. so many big hair band power ballads in our formative years.
