Can't wait, can't wait! Just returned from Phoenix with a hockey team that I coach and we had a great time. The weather definitely warmed up and it surely will be hot in May, on and off the stage. Looking forward to meeting some ants at Kelly's. My favorite time of year, the anticipation is so much a part of the fun. It will be a great night!

The mental picture of Stevie Nicks in the white witch outfit singing Crash is quite disturbing.

so i might go see phish at red rocks over the summer and i'm trying to decide which night of the 4 that they're playing there i should go. they're there from the 30th of july to the 2nd of august. that's thursday - sunday.

suggestions?

[canes101190]

judging from the hampton shows the first night had the best setlist by far but I thought they were playing a little tenatively obviously because they hadn't played together in a while...and then the 3rd night is when they were really firing musically...not as good of a set as N1 but better musically and better jams....I think with a band like Phish they have so many great songs that they'll absolutely tear it up all 4 nights there...if I had to guess which night you should go to I'd probably say 1 or 3...they won't be rusty by the time Red Rocks come along and will be looking to blow the imaginary roof off of that place

I'm not a Phish fan but, Red Rocks..I'd go just for the venue. Sorry that wasn't helpful.

cool thanks for the input. i was debating between 2 and 3 (friday and saturday). i'll probably go with saturday. good way to start a month! tickets are only 50 bucks the thing that'll be tricky financially will be gas (i plan on driving) and getting a room. this is not a for sure thing yet but i'm workin on it.

yeah i'm not a hardcore phishhead either but i've been wanting to see a jam band play at red rocks for a while now and this seems like my chance. i just recently got into phish so this show might make me into a hardcore fan

[canes101190]

yeah i'd go with 3...i think by the 4th night they might get tired and kinda slow jam their way through so i'd stay away from that night..but yeah you should make your reservations now..those Phans are more pumped about this than christmas

it was definitely necessary

Don't think I'll be going to the show in Phx this year. God I hate being in Scottsdale right now. Just wanted to drop in and say that the valley has got to be the shittiest city in America. Awful city with awful people. Thats all.

Just out of curiosity what are ticket prices like?

if you hate being here, that's not the city or the people's fault, it's yours.

I've been moving around and am temporarily here until my next city. I'll be here as little time as possible. The city sucks. Thats not my fault. Just saying. If you think the city and the people are cool...you need to get out more. And alos Cricket Pavillion is really weak. Just pointing out obvious facts here.

I'd say we'd miss you but it's not true. That's all.

Cricket isn't Alpine or SPAC, but it's in our backyard..and you should probably get out more if you are this uptight.

Phoenix is definitely not one of my favorite cities but i still love it and there's no reason to complain about it. that's where you are in this moment in time and you should make the most of it. there's something awesome about every city. and you're wrong about cricket. it's a great venue. and i've been to the gorge so you can't use the "you need to get out more" argument on me.

That's cool not bad pricing..lawn/reserved is wierd though. Irvine used to do that years ago too..

for a guy who has "live don't exsist" under his username shouldn't be coming in here saying the city sucks...you need to start living my friend and get out...cricket is a great time...all I've seen since I've been here is that when there is an opportunity to party, these people will make the most of it...I went to the FBR Open (the golf tournament) and even there people were all about having a good time...Cricket is great and alot of fun..if you can't appreciate that then well hell what do i care..I have a test to study for

i thought RR was all GA?...I don't think there are seats..I could be wrong though I'm just going off of the WOTR DVD that I've watched occasionally..just looks like one big lawn

Why would you miss me? You don't know me. What a weird comment.

Haha...uptight is one thing I'm not. That doesn't take away from the fact that the Phx area still blows.

Believe me, I make the most of it. I enjoy it for little spurts of time. But it is a bland, generic city with no diversity or culture. No distinct archictecture or food. And (generally) stuck up obnoxious people. Basically it lacks anything a good city has. If you disagree I feel sorry for you. Maybe you should travel a little more. Its not a bad city for a weekend, but thats about it. Whats so great about Phx? Cricket is great? Wow, you've been to the Gorge! Comparing the two is a joke. Cricket is average, not terrible I guess. Nothing special. Certainly not nearly on the level of the Gorge. I certainly hope you don't think that.

haha dude get the fuck out of this thread....we didn't really ask for you to come in here and trash cricket and basically everything else that's around you....we don't give a shit what you think and good thing you're not going to the show..we wouldn't want a ticket wasted by an ungrateful prick like yourself

[canes101190]

by the way I'm listening to the Phoenix show as I study if anyone wants to jump in with me here....bringing back some great memories...I remember when Dave played that opening chord I swore it was DDTW but then I remembered everything that had happened that week and knew it had to be Bartender..only fitting of course
