man, you know... i don't know. I almost think they did it on purpose, because of the fact that they had to do it the last time they played the song at that venue.

cuz after the intro, EVERYONE is off... very blatantly. but then on the re-try, its all fine...

if it wasn't on purpose, I think that they all must have been thinking about it, and then laughing... or that Trey remembered it, and started laughing so hard that it threw everyone off.

i'm not sure.

Gordo gives it away.

i just listened to it again loudly, and he's all like plink, plunk, plunk, clank, plunk, plunk.
maybe the most off i've ever heard him.

and then they all kinda just fade out. to me the fade sounds like they were expecting to stop.
do you think Gordo woulda forgot how to play YEM at a show with that much importance?

they prolly practiced that tune just as much if not more than any others.

I think the reason the band was so off was because trey was clearly a half step off...the rest of the band was probably effing confused as to how he was going to mitigate that, and if they should stop. I think that if you think it was "intentional", you're reaching...

The YEM is pretty dirty actually, listened to it in my car en route to work today.

Best Bass and Drums evah.

This YEM isn't the shit, but it is the tits!

In the new issue of RS with the Phish article, elsewhere in the issue in the reviews sections states that the YEM botch was a joke. The second start was pretty weak though.

I love dem tits! Refering to post before, I would also agree that Gordy is rarely off.

You Enjoy Mypoll

THis sounds like a question for your girlfriend/and or partner... But other than that, NO I don't think it was intentional...

it's not a question, it's a statement.

besides, i use three fingers.

I'm surprised people even think this was intentional....

For me, there is no question that they just fucked it up.....it seemed like not all 4 of them were quite ready when Trey started to count it off, and all sort of came in at different times, besides... Trey seemed pretty embarrased when they had to stop and he adressed the crowd

nah dude cuz the intro to the first attempt is fine... its when they come in to start the Gm arpeggio that everything goes wack

Sounds to me like Page/Mike fuck up the very start and then Trey fucks up the Gm arp just as Page/Mike get on board... Anyways, I was there, as were a bunch of you, and I don't think it was intentional at all.

it was not intentional!

Trey started in the wrong key. If it was intentional, well, the joke was on those attending. :wink:

I saw a show in 1995 (11/22 crap centre) where they fucked up rift and just abandoned it midstream. Then trey blamed it on Fish!

I agree that the restart sounds worse than the original start on that YEM.

1. They always blame Fish, for everything.
2. That restart is in the proper key and sounds a hell of a lot better.
3. Cool avatar. :-)
