The Baker's Dozen - 07/21 - 08/06/17

I normally don't reading failing newspapers, but when I do, I like the even better article, the interview with Trey under related coverage!

[mattstick]

I've read 4 or 5 of Ben Ratliff's jazz books, he's an exceptional author.  If you can accept that Phish isn't for everyone there is a lot to like in that review, ymmv.

Totally. Seems like that was just a quick phone interview.

That interview makes me more amazed at how they pulled this run off.

It did a good deal to completely squash the "its over" rumor/vibe in the mind of people who wanted to think that way.
Nothing he says here points in any direction other than up!

Not true. He said,

And so I'm standing there and I'm like, "Well, how do you follow that up?" But what went through my mind was, "You don't follow it up

It's over.  :cry:

I've read 4 or 5 of Ben Ratliff's jazz books, he's an exceptional author.  If you can accept that Phish isn't for everyone there is a lot to like in that review, ymmv.

I particularly appreciated his ability to make these two observations:

The burden on Phish, after 34 years, is to keep adding value, because their fans are also advanced-level consumers who know what it means to be satisfied.

But Phish, and their fans, don't wait around for absolute value. They create it. Nearly everything in the Phish universe is valuable on some level.

I will continue to lament, however, the fact that whenever someone who doesn't like Phish writes about Phish, they feel the need to go out of their way to make sure you know they don't like Phish.

the fact that they make their bias obvious helps put everything they say in perspective
