Random dmb thoughts that don't need their own thread

Fluffed is a classic Phish song. It's a big, 15-minute, fully-composed suite that wends its way through a bunch of different sections before a returning to the original theme in grand fashion. It was a staple of early Phish sets, and performed correctly, it's a huge moment. But as the years went on, it faded from Phish sets. And when it did appear, the performances tended to be sloppy, as the band was moving away from tight, precise compositions of their early years. So when they opened their reunion show in 09 with a well-played Fluffhead, it was sort of a statement that 'the old Phish is back.'

I would say playing a full-length Blue Water would be the closest thing DMB could have to a Fluffhead moment. A fantastic song from the early years that disappeared and has never returned in its full glory.

I can see why someone might say Monkey Man fits the bill, but that song was never played to begin with. So while playing it would be huge, it wouldn't make the same statement as a big Blue Water would.

Thank you for the explanation!

I think the closest we’ve come to a Fluffhead type moment was when Crazy Easy was liberated

God, I love Crazy Easy.

Sledgehammer sucks.

I’m not totally against all covers, but it’s time to shelve this one.

I like Sledgehammer, but it’s certainly been played out.

Looks like this Juneteenth festival is getting streamed. Anyone planning to catch DMB’s set later? Assuming their set will be streamed. Does anyone know if this will be a headlining festival set or just like a few quick songs?

[Gunz]

Set time is an hour and fifteen minutes per the almanac

[hopewelljones]

Rashawn's solo on #41 (in place of Boyd's) is so fuckin good.

Just watching the something in the water festival and saw Dave’s yeti. Anyone know what brand of tea he drinks?

[DMB1JW]

Saw the official band pics from the Mansfield show on Facebook. The one of Dave working out in the gym trailer shows him with a tattoo on his right wrist. Looks like something he drew. Wonder the meaning of it?

So I'm no expert when it comes to mixing, but... I recently found the audio program Audacity. My 1st project was to see if I could make LT 16 sound reasonable to listen because the set is complete fire. Is there a way to upload 1 song for ants critiquing and then I can share my settings for everyone else who has the LT who wants to clean it up? I really only messed with the bass and treble but sounds light years better. Thanks to whoever reads this and gives me input.

I don’t know for sure, but if I were a betting man I would go with Throat Coat by Traditional Medicinals.

The stuff in the link below could be mixed in as well. I recall an old video (making the BTCS studio videos) where they show a case of this stuff. It’s a Chinese herbal formula that benefits the throat…

Does anyone know what Dave uses to clean his boots when he spills tea on them?

Asking for a friend.

You'll need to upload it to a file sharing client like Xcacel does for the Sirius pulls and then link it.

Yeti urine concentrate.

Watchtower should really be played midset more. Was listening to Holmdel 2018, it really fired up the crowd.

Also, underrated show overall. Maybe the best version of Cornbread ever.

[Dannyyankou]

Now that they're back to putting Boyd tracks back on Warehouse discs, they should really include Satellite from 6/7/16-

The whole point of those discs is to highlight unique performances of songs. This would be a great fit.

A moment of silence please for the New Album thread that finally got locked after almost 2 years.

Why was it locked now? Most of the conversations haven’t been related to album info for the past year or so, so not sure why they chose to lock it today

[RSSR]

With the New Album thread being locked, Crush is something in U2's wheelhouse that they could cover. I'd be interested in how they approach that song.

Love that it was locked a few days after 3 people said they had heard september/October for a release and the conflict with the label rumors which came months after not hearing anything of substance.

This is mainly why I’m baffled that it was locked. Any insight @Matt @Jen? Plus, it’s just an online message board where people are talking about random stuff all over the place. Why lock a thread just because discussion got slightly off topic?

[bmt322]

I suspect either superstition, like thinking “if I lock the thread maybe we’ll get news”, or they know news is coming this week and they want to see us all freak out for a few days before something is announced.

Looking at the last couple pages, it seems it went way off topic. Put it in the shed for a few days...

That Satellite needs to be released for sure. Here's another great Satellite, this one's from 2018 but features a guest (JH) so will likely not be released.

They've had guests on Warehouse discs before. A couple on the first WH disc with the Flecktones, Santana on Mother Father, Angel with Eric Krasno, Recently from Cville 2009, and I'm sure there are more

I feel like they haven't had a guest on there in years. Maybe that Spoon with Brandi from like 2013

[JboDaveGuyYNK]

Pine Knob is also next to a little ski area? That's cool (recently found out Alpine is as well)

To those going tmrw, enjoy.

Hey Hey, My My

Just wow

[TheLastStop123]

crazy take maybe, but the louisiana bayou jam is one of my favorite jams the band does.
