True, but I soldier on none the less.

"Maybe I would like Phish more if you didn't play them so much"   -   my wife

I feel your pain on this one...

[willsteele]

I guess I can't complain too much.  At least she likes them a little bit.....  but just a little bit.

"is this the same song??"

[Mr Minor]

"is this the same song??"

I hear it every time.  That's more annoying to me than Phish is to my wife...

I've made a believer out of my girlfriend.
When you listen to entire Tours straight through in your car, they can't escape it.
She loves Bouncing, Disease and Sample!
Sings along, too!

I catch her gettin into certain songs sometimes.  I'm prayin for the day when she busts out and says something I might say like....  that was the dopest jam I ever heard!  She really hates abnormal vocal jams, vaccuum solos and other forms of "screeching noise".

I do have to give her props though..  at least she knew of phish and actually had A Live One before I ever even knew they existed.  She loses points for Sparkle being her favorite song though.  ha

I'm afraid it's her or the Phish.

Heh.  My lady actually likes, and will listen to, Phish.  She isn't any full on phish head or anything, but she does own her own copies of Junta thru Billy Breathes and saw Phish a couple times in the early 90s, last in 96 I think.  She doesn't listen to shows unless I am, though, and as such I have noticed a distinct difference in her acceptance levels between SBDs and audience tapes (any muddiness and she is out - she prefers the stuff that "sounds good").  I can work with that, no problem.

The Grateful Dead was a hard sell, though.  After a couple of years of timing choice show pieces that I would think would grab ahold of, instead of repel or confuse, the novice... (even my assumption I'd held since college that all ladies are defenseless when faced with the awesome powers of JGB 3/18/78 proved not to be the case with her) I was starting to think it was never going to happen.  Then one spring day out in the garage, I caught her digging Help On The Way.... and then Franklins Tower...  my 1989 cassette re-release of Blues For Allah was the crack!  I didn't push it, but soon after I slyly put it on her ipod.  It was a week or so later she told me she was totally digging it.  I followed fast with American Beauty and we were in.  Now I can put on shows and not really have to think about it.  I can tell she is cooler with, say, 73-74, 77 than she is with the late 80s,90...  I can work with that, too.

^^Nice.

[mopper_smurf]

My girlfriend can handle Phish iin small doses. Undermind, Billly Breathes, Hoist - the "accessible" albums. I tried Farmhouse, but that one "lacks punch".

She loves "Waste" and has been caught singing it for my daughter.

[gah]

listening to my girlfriend give her number to some dude, with me standing right there, facing the other way talking to some other people....getting into a drunken argument with her afterwards....waking up hungover....

[G. Augusto]

OH SNAP!!!!!
I forgot to call her!!!!!
