I smell Phish

Men, stop shaving your face. Women, stop shaving your armpits (and legs). Children, stay away from mom and dad's brownies...Phish is coming to town. The countdown is on. Less than 2 weeks before grown men and women reeking of patchouli oil and butt sweat, congregate in hippie towns across the U.S.. They will be dancing as though their arms are 2 foot long pasta noodles, eyes closed and a grin that says "this bandana is way too tight, and so are my clothes, I need to be naked".

It's amazing that a band all about peace and love can generate such hostility from non-followers. Their cult like following is the target of so many sarcastic comments, like mine above and the poster below...













There are some bands that everyone must see once in their lifetime, and Phish is one of those bands. Whether you like the music or just want to see people of all ages and occupations lose their minds (and often pride) for one day, it will be well worth the price of admission. Mushrooms, weed and laser light shows are the winning combination for some of the best people watching you'll see in your lifetime.
















Some other things you're sure to see at a Phish show are; signs requesting songs, white guys that can jam but can't dance, and JAY-Z rapping with the band?? Jay-Z has 99 problems but a Phish ain't one.

So gas up the Volkswagen van and head for Berkeley. The first show is less than 2 weeks away. If you don't get a chance to shower between now and then, no worries, this year's Phish tour will be sponsored by Lever 2000 and Febreze.
