Title: Helping Friendly Podcast (HFPod)
Post by: rowjimmy on April 14, 2015, 03:34:50 PM
I've mentioned this podcast a few times on here and I've been on a couple times in the past.
Brad and RJ (no relation) who run this thing are generally knowledgable and all around nice guys.

This week I'm back on to discuss one of my all-time favorite shows, 1989-05-28 Ian's House (not actually at Ian's House but what the fuck ever.) Set one this week, the rest of the show will go up next week.

If you listen to podcasts, I recommend subscribing to this one.

Listen via your favorite podcast app or directly from their website http://www.hfpod.com

This week's episode is here:

Episode 65 is up.
You guys might want to check this one out. George comes on with his "Just The Jams" mix and Brad interviews him. I'm quiet for the most part. Listening to George pontificate had me laughing such that I kept my mic on 'mute' a lot of the time.

And not because he was telling jokes.

Those other guys are a little younger. By the time they might've seena H.O.R.D.E. show, it would have featured Lenny Kravitz.
Honestly, though, as much as I'd have been embarrassed if I hadn't remembered, I was a little impressed with myself for pulling that out of my ass on the spot late at night after a couple...

I think I had a shitty lot shirt from the HORDE tour in 92 that actually spelled it out on the back. Perhaps that's why it's forever burned into my psyche.

They were fun shows besides having to listen to the Spin Doctors.  Blues Traveler headlined all the ones I saw, but I think they switched off nights with Phish.  The Phish sets I saw were just OK, but every night ARU brought the heat.  They were so good at that point in time, imo.

My review on Phish.net from the 20th anniversary of my first show:

QuoteIt was twenty years ago today...

The HORDE tour presented by Canada Dry and Maxell.

the Line-Up:

Col. Bruce Hampton (ret.) and the Aquarium Rescue Unit ->
Widespread Panic
Spin Doctors
Phish
Blues Traveler

It was not my first rock show (Rush in 1991)... but it was my first "jamband" show. Of course, nobody used the term "jamband" back then.

I was a huge Blues Traveler fan. I remember when their second album was released ("Travelers and Thieves") I went to Record Town at the Short Hills Mall and bought it that very day. Prominently displayed next to it was "A Picture of Nectar" which I did not buy on that day... soon...

Of course, Spin Doctors were just starting to blow up at this time, too. They had a single (Two Princes) climbing the charts... but in Jersey, we were already very familiar with those guys. We knew they were buddies with Blues Traveler, but I never really thought they were as good. For the record, I still love John Popper. Guy has tremendous talent as a song writer, singer, harp player, guitarist, and is a great guy ta-boot.

So, we head down to Garden State Arts Center on this fateful day 20 years ago... ARU is on stage first. I'm admittedly a little lost... trying to get my bearings around this hippie crowd. People are smoking weed... men are hugging other men... cute girls in flowing dresses are already spinning in circles...

Anyway, ARU is playing and slowly, one by one, these other musicians are joining them onstage. Then slowly, one by one, the members of ARU are leaving the stage. Before I know it, we are hearing Widespread Panic. Now, people know I'm not the biggest WSP fan, but I gotta admit, this transition was cool. It really set the stage for the rest of the day. This was no normal rock and roll show.

Once WSP finishes their set, there is a brief break in the music. I say brief because it was. This HORDE tour had a huge rotating stage. So, while WSP was playing, the roadies were setting up for Spin Dr.s behind them. So, it took about 10 minutes to rotate the stage and they were ready to go!

The Spin Doctors set was cool. I remember it really well. Their front man is a freak and chicks in the crowd were loving it. I remember looking around at the really hippie-looking folks in the crowd and seeing a lot of standing around with hands in pockets just sort of grooving in one spot.

Next up was Phish. I had heard some Phish tapes at a few basement parties over the previous few years, but I never really listened too closely. I was definitely unfamiliar and unprepared for this. I will say, the energy in the crowd went up a few notches once Phish hit the stage. Those hippie dudes no longer had their hands in their pockets - they were dancing.

What I remember of my first Phish show:

Seeing Trey and Mike looking like they were headbanging from the lawn. I mean, you'd have thought they were playing "Master of Puppets" by looking at them, but the music pouring out was Latin jazz.

I also remember my attitude towards front-man antics changed a lot that day once I saw a band where all 4 guys were serious musicians. It just made Chris Barron look like an idiot by comparison. It's funny, because I sing and I love to sing... and I had a few opportunities to sing with bands both in high school and my freshman year of college - but by the time I was in college I really felt like an idiot out front singing... I'm definitely not a "musician" so why would I be in a band.

I remember Runaway Jim... I remember Stash just because I loved the way it sounded from the very beginning. It was my first favorite Phish song.

I remember Cavern and the vacuum solo. I remember the trampolines and the whole John Popper prank. I was pretty geeked out to think that Popper was going to jam with Phish and a little bummed when he didn't, but the prank was hilarious.

I remember the vocal jam out of YEM and thinking "this must be for the people on acid... I bet this sounds great on acid."

I sort of remember Suzy... then it was over.

By the time Blues Traveler hit the stage, the sun had set and the crowd energy had come down quite a bit. I enjoyed their set, which included Warren Haynes (then of the Allman Brothers) sitting in on Mountain Cry. But it was a let-down after Phish. Needless to say, I've seen Blues Traveler a couple dozen times since and enjoyed every show, but never have been blown away. I still love John Popper and always will.

Since that day I have seen Phish a total of 120 times including this past Sunday in Saratoga Springs, NY. I celebrated my 20 year Phishiversary on Sunday and the boys made it special for me. I caught my first La Grange. They encored with a monster YEM. I spent the weekend with Wendel and his brother (and a bunch of other great folks). Over half of my 120 shows (66 to be exact) I have seen with Wendel. It's just what we do whenever we can. I wouldn't have it any other way... Can't wait to do it again.

Finished this one on a flight this morning. Great stuff. Todd's right about the jam between coil and tweezer being the highlight. It was a jam that would not be out of place in 2015. Major key.  Trey chording more than soloing. Great stuff.

Also, it's worth mentioning that Dont get me wrong was written by Trey and John specifically so they had a tune that stayed in one single key the whole time so hi John could play harmonica without switching harps.


Great story about zzyzx at the end too.

New episode in which RJ, Brad & I discuss Fall tour, Summer tour, Lockn, & display our vast ignorance of Ween.
Also there's a killer August '93 set that we play and discuss.
Good times.

Good interview.  Joel's a good dude, as I've probably mentioned in other threads, and also he's like the general blabbermouth of Umphrey's.
Currently enjoying the huge jam from after the interview.

And now a new HFPod.
I missed this recording session but I'm sure it's a good one. Walter Holland (author of that 331/3 book on A Live One) joins to discuss a subject and certainly debatable list of "Turning Points In Phish History".
Dig it.

What if that guy was our own Caravan?

I can answer because I have the same one (partially based on RJs recommendation.)  For the price, they really can't be beat and sound better than a lot of USB mics at way higher price points.  Has been great for home recording too and a lot easier than setting up my xlr mic (which is a Rode that I love but....)  Anyway, this is it: https://www.amazon.com/Blue-Yeti-USB-Microphone-Silver/dp/B002VA464S

That said, my voice is only weird when I use this mic.  I sound like Mel Torme irl.....

ETA: You can get certain colors or find a sale when they are only $99....

Also, the book is amazing and it comes out next week.

Listened yesterday. Great interview. I want to get the whole unedited phish chapter.
One critique I have to offer.  when y'all were discussing "rumors", he mentioned there were albums he couldn't listen to. I would liked to have hear what they were. I think it was a missed opportunity for an interesting follow up question.

We have a new episode.
EP138 with Dawn Jenkins of Phemale-Centric, a Phish podcast from a woman's pov.
Dawn's show is great and she and RJ talk about her history as a fan.

The intro was fun to record and, before all of that is a special message from Tom Marshall in which he says my name.

Loved this episode. Though I've never met Dawn we share a lot in common, being the same age and having discovered phish in the Boston area in the mid 90s  we shared a lot of experiences. She tells a great story and I'm interested to hear more. It's great to see these ladies doing their thing. My wife has joined a few of these female only phish groups recently and she thinks they're the tops. Nice work bringing her on.
Also heard the name drop  from Marshall. Must feel pretty sweet.  :wtu:

Oh man... I just listened to the whole HCA album last week for the first time in years. It's sooooo good. That Simple is sublime.

Yeah, me too!  Father in Law just found a mint CD box at a garage sale for $2 and gave it to us.  So sick.  That set with the Simple was the best.  Actually that was my first ever show at Hampton.  I skipped the night before and years previous.

Listened this morning while cleaning the house.  I liked your spunk on this one RJ.

Made me go back to that golden age from N1 Hampton.   That's got my vote for jam of the tour.   So much deep weird space that i love, the shipwreck came outta nowhere in the perfect place.

Yeah, good episode.

I am def on your team RJ about not watching the lights.  I mean, the lights are cool, and like you, I love the pictures, but during a show I'm either watching the band or my eyes are closed, or looking at the ground or something.  It's not that I don't look at the lights on purpose, I just don't really notice them to be honest.

Nice episode.  I love that show.  Funny to me that you guys were somewhat lukewarm to it, but it sounds like you eventually all warmed up to it a little more.  Also, you guys were musing about why they would play Wipeout for the first time in 700 shows or whatever.  Well at that point, that's when the cat was starting to get out of the bag that the millennium show was going to be in Hawaii so that's why everyone in the place is going nuts.  This was before the Hawaii thing fell through and everything moved to Big Cypress.

Going to check that out.  I don't know a lot about Spring '94.  I think I only went to the Beacon which was just OK and I saw some great stuff in the summer and fall but '94 is one of my least seen years  as I had a crummy job after not working most of 93 and living on a credit card.  There are a ton of shows I have never even heard a note of.
