Phish 20th Anniversary Montage

Sorry it's been a few days since the last post here... so here's a BIG one to make up for it.. the Phish 20th Anniversary Montage! This was played during setbreak at the 12/2/03 concert in Boston, MA. The band left the stage, the lights went down, and the sounds of Fluffhead filled the arena. Could it be the return of Fluffhead? Noooooo. Just another shot of Phish humor as a huge screen was lit up above the stage with some really old footage of the band. A great video with timeless amazing shots followed. So not really live Phish today, but some awesome old Phish stuff for your enjoyment:

Old School 5/20/87 Wilson

We're kicking it old school Phish style tonight! This phideo (wow that hurts me just to write that... whatever.. it's staying) is from 5/20/87 at The Ranch in Shelburne, VT (South Burlington). Phish played with another local Vermont band of that time- The Joneses at what looks like the back of someone's house. At one point the cameraman is clearly distracted by some hippie chicks and you can get a glimpse of Trey's dog Marley. Sweetness. Great early Phish video- rock on dudes:

First Wilson Chant 12/30/94

Since it looks like my last few posts have all been from Madison Square Garden, I might as well continue the trend. Here's Wilson from 12/30/94, which is the version included on "A Live One". This was Phish's first appearance at MSG and from the looks of it, both the band and the crowd were pumped up. The Wilson chant had appeared weakly throughout 1994 but it was at this show, with Trey egging on the crowd, that it really took off into it's own. And with it, was the demise of Jon Fishman's little woodblock solo thing. But I think we're all better off with 20,000 fans chanting the name of the evil ruler of Gamehenge. A Live One came out before the next tour began, and sealed the Wilson chant as a permanent fixture in Phishtory.
