When I was a kid, GD music was omnipresent. It shaped who I was before Phish had a chance to shape who I was. Had my parents been Phishheads and not Deadheads, I surmise that my life would have been drastically different.

My parents were deadheads also, but then became phishheads as well. I still went  :phish:

You haven't lived until you've had a robot shart in your ear and followed along in the live setlist thread while it happens.

tough vote.  I love the  :syf: from '68-78 whereas I love  :phish: from '93-04(sans Vegas, except the Twist), 10 years each.  My favorite music from both bands are their forays into the "x" or unknown.  The Dead went through many transformations as did Phish but beyond those stylistic and artistic evolutions, its when both bands "hook up" and become 1 improvisationally is where I love them the most.  Still undecided...

When I was a kid, Beatles music was omnipresent. I voted for them over Phish and would have voted for them over the Dead. Still, I voted for Phish.
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

last round I voted the Beatles over Phish and Hendrix over the Dead, voting in this round is a regression really. :-D

Indeed.  I thought it would be a closer match.

:phish: beat out Miles, the Beatles, and  :syf:

if I didn't know any better, I would think this message board is devoted to  :phish:
"toss away stuff you don't need in the end
but keep what's important, and know who's your friend"
"It's a 106 miles to Chicago. We got a full tank of gas, half a pack of cigarettes, it's dark and we're wearing sunglasses."

WhatstheUse?

seemed pretty obvious to me that the  :syf: would get trumped by  :phish:

:phish: IS the main reason we are all here.
Bring in the dude!

Oh! That! No, no, no, you're not ready to step into The Court of the Crimson King. At this stage in your training an album like that could turn you into an evil scientist.
