Mr. Miner's Phish Thoughts

DOWNLOADS OF THE WEEKEND:

For this three-day weekend, I am featuring a standout three-night swing through the Carolinas in November of 1995.  Beginning in Charleston, SC and heading north along tobacco road with stops in Charlotte and Winston-Salem, Phish blazed a trail heading north for Thanksgiving.  The Charleston show took no time to rage with a “Dinner and a Movie” opener and an outstanding first set.  Phish came back and threw down a great second frame highlighted by a 30-minute “YEM” with a “Brickhouse” jam contained within.    Charlotte’s second set was a start-to-finish beast with a “Tweezer” centerpiece and glorious end of set “Hood.”  Winston-Salem’s second set “Bowie > Take Me to the River > Bowie” and “Mike’s” stood out among the rest on the band’s dark and final night in the south.

In order to prepare everyone for the Summer “No Spoilers” downloads (more on that later) and all of the upcoming summer show downloads- which will only be offered in torrent format, this weekend I am going to give everybody practice with torrent-only links.  With three days for people to ask questions and figure it out, I thought this would be a good time to start. (Here are links touTorrent and Vuze)   Remember to keep your torrent windows open when you are done downloading so other people can grab it from you- that is the point!

Happy Memorial Day!  Enjoy the barbeques, and may the Schwartz be with you!

FALL ’97 Mix-Up Pt. 2 – TIE BREAKER

Linked below is the tie breaking mix for George, Mark, and Robert.  Anyone else is free to listen to, or download, the mix, but it’s a bit different this time around.  This mix was made specifically for competition as a challenge our Fall ’97 ninjas, not necessarily “for your listening pleasure.”  The tie-breaker has just as many tracks in less than half the time, without any real focus on artistic merit.  13 jams in 33 minutes- we’ll see what happens!  Look for the results on Tuesday; the first post following this holiday weekend.  The winner gets their choice of a Fenway, Starlake or Knoxville ticket shipped directly to their door!

George, Mark, and Robert- your 13 track entries are due by Monday at 7 pm eastern / 4 pacific. Good luck!
