Ten Tunes For Friday: Summer ’95
Jones Beach '95
When thinking of summer Phish, one usually recounts warm summer nights and blissful musical experiences. But in the Summer of ’95 , the band explored some of the darkest and most experimental music of their career. Routinely cranking out 20 minute jams of psyche-challenging madness, Phish ripped off numbing excursions nightly during a spectacular summer. If you liked exploration, Summer ’95 was for you. Nearly impossible to choose only ten jams for Friday, this playlist represents a small selection of what this tour has to offer. For more a more complete run through the abyss of this season, check out “Miner’s Picks: Summer ’95.” Enjoy your Friday!

“Down With Disease > Free” 6.26 II

“Runaway Jim > Makisupa” 7.2.II
7.4.2010 (W.Rogell)
A heavy and grinding, set-opening “Jim” finally gave way to smooth reggae rhythms at Sugarbush’s summer ending weekend.

3.5 hours to burlington. Go!
Just made it home from Trey. Better workout than the gym. Band sounded great. Fun meeting some of the fine folks from here. Safe travels all who are headed home.
BK, do you really need to know how magnets work?
In a nutshell, magnets work by something aligning either with or in opposite to the something else. Outside of a nutshell all that is contrary to what I just wrote.
🙂
Nice. I almost replied to some of the stupid questions I got last night with, “How do magnets work?” but I knew it would be lost on them.
oh my… I know some folks here are particular to China… but WTF??!!
