Definitely not an interview - but also not worth its own thread, so I put it here...

I've been coming to where I am from the get go
Find that I can groove with the beat when I let go
So put your worries on hold
Get up and groove with the rhythm in your soul

Thanks for posting, Dave.

I forgot about this thread, and I was just wanting to see the one--I think it's from Trey's sit down w/ Charlie Rose in 2004, or maybe the interviews in the IT fest movie?--where he talks about music as a direct, pre-verbal connection to the divine. A bunch of you must have seen this; he says something like "We're insignificant, but part of something larger, and music is a way of speaking right to that larger spirit." I spent an hour scanning youtube and came up w/ 12 minutes of the Charlie Rose thing, but no dice.

Anyone got a clue?

Pretty sure that's on the IT DVD.
Bring in the dude!

Yeah, me too. But it looks like that film was scrubbed off of youtube. Ah, well. I'll dig up my copy of the DVD and watch it when cold weather sets in.

It's a bit startling how rough Trey looks in those interviews. He's in a sad looking place.

Bump.

QuoteI had heard that Prince practices with his band, I don't know, seven hours a day, six days a week — even for years, every week. Even if there's no tour for two years he'll do that," Gordon says. "I was thinking, oh, that's cool.

Everything is connected, because it's all being created by this one consciousness. And we are tiny reflections of the mind that is creating the universe.

Gotta love the part about practicing five hours a day. I do believe ol' Red is gonna step up to the plate for these FTW shows.
Is this still Wombat?

Really curious about how his tone has changed with the rig work he's been doing.

But there's been a lot of those moments in soundchecks – so many that I sent an e-mail around recently to the three other guys saying we should put [them] out, you know like, "Let people hear some of these soundchecks." Because a lot of times we get to soundcheck, we just get onstage and we start jamming. Nobody's there, nobody's watching, everybody just woke up and kind of came stumbling off the bus. It's kind of a half-dream state.

I do recall hearing an interview w/ Brad Sands from 24Nov.98 New Haven w/ Phish soundchecking in the background, sounded pretty trippy.  definitely wouldn't mind hearing more Phish unhinged.
