    I love phish and this is f…ing funny! Now I know what my wife hears…

  • knotjammy

    Yes, it’s long. But I think that’s kind of the point. This is pure genius.

  • PhishExpert88

    haha Shit.. This is actually better than Phish.

  • Sahalcott

    i know. millions of listeners are sooo wrong. that’s why all the other bands have much more enthused and loyal crowds. phish is terrible. E. A. D.

    There should have been one of these for the Grateful Dead. The first and last time I went to a Dead show I was prepared for the Greatest Show on Earth. Instead I felt like (for good reason) the only person not high in a crowd of 10,000.

    I like Phish, but this is still hilarious

  • IhateTools

    I don’t get it. Is this supposed to be like what talent sounds like to untalented people? If it is then I suppose it makes sense. All it did was cut up pieces of music and make it sound retarded. This is not funny at all, maybe because I can appreciate music.

      Wow and you take yourself to seriously. Phish fans are so sensitive!

  • Gracioushobo

    I really like phish but i found this hilarious…everytime trey gives that dumb looking face and is like ehhh….

  • Truckguy

    This is what Phish sounds like when you’re not stoned. You need a bong hit just so you don’t lose your patience. Like, are they going to start playing something, or are they just going to tune up for 2 hours?

    I can’t believe there is actually an organization of fans who celebrates seeing concerts sober. Those people are masochists.

      sorry that you arent musically intelligent enough to understand it.  I really am sorry for you.  your are missing out on a lot.

      • guest

        I’m sorry you aren’t grammatically intelligent enough to understand the English language…  YOU’RE missing out as well.

        • Guest

          You’re a dick.

          You’re a dick.

          I honestly have a hard time understanding folks who’d rather listen to pre-packaged, repetitive pop music than something with substance, intelligence, and flow. I suppose this the same principle that created Cliff’s Notes when our society became too lazy to sit through the joy of the intended work.
