In honor of the Fenway opener, I would like to discuss an element of Phish stage banter I actually enjoy. I am referring to when Trey, typically just before set break, announces the current score of a local professional sporting event. An excellent example is 8/14/93, where Trey announces the score of the Cardinals/Bears game during "Daniel". That was a great show, and I can only hope that Phish finishes up a strong first set with a nice update of the Sox/Tigers game. With any luck we could need a Celtics update as well, but well see about that tonight.
Also, it would be nice if during the set break we could get a live feed on the megatron of the Sox game, but that might be too much to ask. Also, I wonder whether or not there will be hot dog and peanut salesman patrolling the aisles? If so, they should be allowed to carry tasers or bear spray, lest they get mauled by some TV baby with a brain infection who just tried Ketamine for the first time.
Phish Phags have always claimed a Nostradamic ability to predict openers, set closers and encores. Setting lines for such predictions would be a great way to bilk the the Phish Community. Star Spangle Banner opener -110. Gamehendge +400 spend your money on crazy prop bets not knock off designer drugs. Bets, not hugs or drugs.
ReplyDeleteLook for me in the lot, i'll be the guy with the legal pad, betting slips, and massive pupils.
i will be there with a camera in hand, documenting the debauchery that phish fans believe is a special experience when in reality is just an excuse to get crunked. phish will be so happy to be making money off of your dead brain cells and the fact that they can not be worried abut flubbing. they will then run to their big houses and piles of pills to rest until they decide they hate playing (again). maybe the boston show can send them on their way? see ya never phish
ReplyDeleteI want Fenway updates and pictures of dirty hippies, NOW
