Hampton '09 Remembered

[Hicks]

Looks like newplanet7 was the first to earn his satin jacket!

I miss that guy, T is good peeps.

[barnesy305]

Ummm, your post is blank, dude. Is it too long, maybe more than a page, or something?

[rowjimmy]

Welcome back!
Previously on Hampton '09 Remembered:

Shit went down.

Now we return to Night Three during the setbreak where the ugly ain't gettin' any better.

Glad someone decided to -k me because they can't handle an opinion
that would differ from theirs.

my cock
//suck it

yeah, I happen to disagree with you (didn't smite you) and I got a smite for it too.

I plan on getting at least another 5 smites tonight though.

bvaz, don't ever change.

Well newplanet, I got your K back up 1.  You are entitled!

* kellerb goes to walk dog during setbreak

About a 7 min tube= weak sauce

depends...12/7/97 is under 7 min

Tube 8-13-96...also short...and lovely.

Thanks Moses for the smite for disagreeing with you.  Guess that's the theme of he night.


edit:couldn't have been Moses doesn't have a high enough post count, but to the douche that did thank a million. :roll:

+k to Moses for my F'up

Sleeping Monkey encore
..Fee to open set II ?


ps. someone is smiting everyone... don't lose sleep over it

I'm gonna smite everyone that posted the word "smite" in this second set as I go through it.

Or not.

I think we will need to give it some time before the monster jams reappear.  Let  get comfy again and things will grow out of these straight rocking versions.  Just like the early nineties, what followed were many years of jams that continually got better and better.

So... How's that workin out for ya?

I agree. I don't think that these guys are quite ready to become a nostalgia act just yet...

Glad someone decided to -k me because they can't handle an opinion
that would differ from theirs.

my cock
//suck it

Smiting means absolutely nothing.  And telling someone to suck your dick because you got a smite is real classy.

Thanks champ.
I was actually telling someone that because they can't handle someone elses opinion.
AND FROM WHAT I HAVE BEEN READING THROUGH AROUND HERE IN LURK MODE
YOU HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO CLASS

Rich, lol.

I'm sure I will piss people off, but whatever.

if we had 2 nights of no extended jams and it seems fairly obvious there won;t be any tonight, why do the people that don't like it follow the setlist here?

why come on a thread to hate when it is obvious it won't please you?

everyone is entitled to be here but if it is just going to make you complain can you all start another thread to complain?

smite away

K+ ...that' blew up in yer face didn't it?

-K!

Also, let's all remember what was fueling some of those jams and that is not something I want the band to get back into again.  I like where they have started and I am excited to see where it leads.

It's  3.0 bitches!

Don't fight.. Phish is playing tonight.

Ton of us onsite a few didn't make it in.

I've never smitten anyone.

I believe it's smote.   :wink:  :-P

Smotten?

Smötten

YOU HAVE A UMLAT BUTTON!!!


totally jealous.

I had to chill on my phone bat is the set over and what happened to stir up the unlove

Set's over:

Hampton Coliseum Hampton, VA

I: Sanity; Wilson; Foam; Bathtub Gin; Undermind; AC/DC Bag; My Friend, My Friend; Scent of a Mule; All of These Dreams; Maze; She Still Thinks I Care; Tube; Cars, Trucks, Buses; Free; Frankenstein

Can't wait to see the second set list!!  Enjoy yourselves!!

I am calling a Hoist special- DWD, If I Could, Julius, DogFaced Boy.

Jibboo yet?  And a Twist.

Tweezer Reprise Encore.

Paste the setlist please

Dude... He JUST did 25 seconds ago. Pay attention.
(It sometimes took up to a minute to send a post from inside the show.)

BBFCFM for 27 minutes

Love this call.

I would give you a +k right now if I could, because you've hooked me up with so much excellent MMW in the past.

Cheers brother!

Glad to see you're into the MMW.
Didn't mean to come of as harsh people,
I am just not as much into the sets.

Expectations are definitely a strong factor.
Pretty much setting myself up for a let-down.
Was just hoping for something else.
Cheers.

Aww... Now that we're all friends again, how about one last Phish set?

Cheers all. Bring on Set 2!

Who the fuck is voopa, again?

sup dudes, kinda dramatic in here at the moment, eh?

~some bullshit I didn't copy~

Look at how many times I've been smitten.  Do you think I care?  Nope. I'd love to have karma removed altogether because it's just numbers to me.

Relax, bro.  It really means nothing.

-K! (f'real)

I can't wait for the set to begin so we can get back to talking about the music as it happens.

SER, more rock less beyotch please!

Rich I am not going to hash this out with you because right now you are
twisting things.

I never said people have to agree with me did I??
PROOF?

I was upset because someone smitted me for expressing my opinion.

I only added that last post because the tampon pic made me lol.
Seriously. Look at it.
That's funny.

lets back back to business shall we gentlemen?

BACK BACK!

I'd put a modest amount of cash on 2001>DWD right now.

Set II:  Jennifer Dances -> Friday

On second night as well just finished the piper-> birds sick segue

I'm listening to the second night now, really dug the slightly extended GBOTT groovy stuff right there.

I didn't think I'd ever say this, but they somehow made B&R less effective in concert last night. 

I'll say it again, I really dug the Ghost>Piper>Birds, especially the transition between Piper and Birds

man...this seems like a long set break...

jesus fucking christ people.  Wow...  if i didn't know any better, I'd say some of you are bitter as all shit that you couldn't see any of the shows.

I can't believe the negativity about these shows.  No jamming?  How about you go check out some 80's Phish, or even shit up to 92, when Bowie was NORMALLY only 10 minutes. 

Goes to show what being there does to your perspective...  I couldn't fucking believe that Wolfman's was only like 8 minutes.  It was the perfect length, live. 


And this talk of no ferociousness or fire is just flat out wrong.  I'm sorry.  You're all looking in the wrong places.  GBOTT was DANK.  Trey tore that shit up real good.  Fucking Split Open and Melt drove that place into the ground, and Antelope made shit fucking explode. 


These shows are very, very odd, in my opinion.  They're messing things up that don't normally get messed up, yet they nail Asse Festival and Reba.  I have yet to listen to the shows, but I was quite clear-headed enough to accurately judge the music's execution.



Overall...  I have to say I am disappointed, because that NYTimes article was very misleading, in terms of being the hyper-practiced version of themselves.  They certainly aren't PH all over again, but they most certainly could be tighter.

HOWEVER, and this is the point I think pretty much all of you naysayers out there are completely missing, LOOK AT ALL THE FUCKING SONGS THEY RELEARNED!  Are you fucking kidding me?

Okay...  in 1995, they had been playing all of the most complicated shit like YEM, Bowie, Reba, Fluffhead, Divided Sky, Rift, etc etc etc practically NON-STOP for fucking like...  nearly 10 years.  Okay.  So for them to try to get back all this shit in like, what...  6 months?  I'd say they did a god-damn motherfucking good job.

Lets see you do it.  Yeah, they're Phish, and *cue sarcastic voice* "they're suppoooosed to do it," but they're fucking human, and fallible, just like you and me. 

So, combine having to relearn a life-time's worth of compli-fucking-cated music, the excitement of the situation, and then the pressure and nerves of having to actually execute all of this, then I'd say they're doing a goddamn good job.



No, I am not completely satisfied with the music.  I thought Piper was outright lame, Ghost was disappointing at first, Mike's was...  odd, and not great, and Reba was a fairly life-less jam, but if you could have seen them pretty much nail so many pieces of music, in time with the lights, then your attitude would be entirely different. 

But overall, I think they're trying too hard, and thats whats making them miss.  But thats a GOOD THING.  Can't you see that?  They're setting the bar impossibly high, SO THAT THEY'LL EVENTUALLY REACH IT. 



Would you seriously have rathered them drop a 20 minute Piper into a 30 minute Ghost, followed by a 30 minute Tweezer, play Bouncin, then play a 20 minute Gin, to take up as much time, but leave only a fraction of that time to actually composed music?  Thats what they did PH, and I thought you all hated it...



Sorry if this is all harsh, but you people really need to give them a fucking break, and consider the entirety of their situation.  They have lives.  They can't dedicate every waking second of their lives to making sure they were as tight as Fall '95. 




and Page is the leader of the band right now.  Fish has been the weakest.

Gumbo'd

Set 6
Dwd

ah...there it is!

I didn't think I'd ever say this, but they somehow made B&R less effective in concert last night. 

I have to completely disagree.  It was sick.  I hate B&R, but RJ totally made me realize what its for...  Trey's gutiar work was sick, and Fish made it feel like a trippy Pink Floyd adventure.  I actually loved it.

I wish I knew what I said to him...

gumbo in the house!

excited to see if this DWD is a 7minute ripper or a 20 minute experimentation!

Maybe dwd->2001

It almost seems desperate the way they cling to these calls.

Get ready fellas for the 30 min Jenny Dances!

:?

DWD -> Roses are Free  perhaps =P

Phish.com says fans were throwing roses to the band before Disease. 

Yeah. This was cool. The whole vibe in the shows was fairly special in a manner unlike any other run I've attended.

I still think it's going to close the set with a Julius.

Page hasn't only been on tonite he has been the star in my book for most of the weekend

Truth.

I didn't think I'd ever say this, but they somehow made B&R less effective in concert last night. 

I have to completely disagree.  It was sick.  I hate B&R, but RJ totally made me realize what its for...  Trey's gutiar work was sick, and Fish made it feel like a trippy Pink Floyd adventure.  I actually loved it.

B&R is a great song, but last night's version was far from trippy, worst B&R evar!!!!

> Jam

:mrgreen: :banana: :mrgreen:

> orgasm

Gumbo, I couldn't focus to read that entire post, but the parts I did skim I would tend to agree with, folks gotta be patient.  They'll get there, the dedication is obvious, but they're not gonna just bust out with a jam like the 12/31/95 Weekapaug, or even the 7/30/03 Scents right out of the gate, they have to develop that a little after almost five years. 

I'd say these shows show that the potential is there for a very good Phish, but it's going to be a building type thing again. 

And yeah Fish does seem a bit behind and Page is ruling.  Mike isn't stepping up either, but I can kind of understand that since maybe he wants to give the other guys a chance before he starts pwning jams again. 

yeah, EXACTLY.  People who aren't at the shows are erroneously projecting the characteristics of whatever Phish they've been listening to lately onto 3.0, so OF COURSE they aren't going to measure up.  Its human nature though...  they haven't given themselves any room to create a new perspective on the band.  Their memories and past experiences are clouding their judgement.

The thing is, though, is that these jams are the PERFECT length.  Except Halley's and Gumbo.  That was pretty lame...  but regardless...  they're all perfect length.  GBOTT felt like it was going on FOREVER.  and to realize that Wolfmans was only fucking 8 minutes...  that was weird. 


I'm listening to Fluffhead now, and they pretty fucking nailed it. 

whoa, made perfect sense

Gumbo 2.0!

> Jam

I was just about to ask if I had missed anything since they started play DWD.

Exploratory dwd ight here

My favorite part of the weekend and one of the best jams of 3.0.

Pumped to hear it

> Jam

sweet

Exploratory dwd ight here

yeeeesssssss!

just got through the pallindrome in Divided Sky.  Wow, they were right on!!   The energy of being able to do it with their eyes closed wasn't necessarily there, but they navigated it successfully, and THAT is what fucking counts.

so RJ you'd consider the jam part of DWD?

Yes. Yes I would.

DWD is going on 19 minutes now

calling Twist.

7 below

This could have some promise.

Wow... there's your JAMBAND for you!

Good turn

so was there NO segue into 7 Below?

Let us not pick nits.

I remember DWD>7 below in vegas 03.

except it was DWD>7 Below>DWD

so was there NO segue into 7 Below?

I think there probably was, I'm just playing it safe.  We're shooting from the hip here, piecing it together from RJ's posts

im gonna bet there was a > -7

Horse

wish that read > Hose

Silent

Why didn't I just post Horse > Silent to begin with? Cos that would be the time they don't play Silent...

looks like that was a short seven below

F short 7 below, the dwd was awesome.

NICE  :banana:

Twist

HELLS YES

yayo!!!

Never touch the stuff.

so far all of the songs I told RJ that they would play are being played:  Gin, Bag, Twist, Disease

Phish.com still showing Seven Below. 

The name of this thread should be: rowjimmy - From Hampton ***SPOILER ALERT***
:-D

TWIST!!!    :banana:   

Roses is coming

I think the Stash from Friday is the perfect showcase for whats going to happen:  even having played it Wednesday during the dress rehearsal, they sound sooo much more confident on it than most of the other songs.

OMG! Epic Post Is Too Epic For The Paug To Render!

Continued Below.

[rowjimmy]

how about some new songs:

Pebbles

Scents

Walls

yeah I'm feeling P&M.

> 2001

oh snaps!

Gumbo,
what does that quote mean in your sig?
A little partaking in the party :evil:

from what ive heard, yes...

and just WHAT have you heard?  I'm very curious.  haha

nice set so far..   Slave to end it

2001!!!!

Heads are exploding right now. 

this set II has a dream setlist

Moma

schnikes!

jesus christ...  i can only imagine what its like there.  CK5 must be having himself a fucking BALL of a time.


you guys really dont know what you've missed, haha.  or maybe you do.  The lights were an absolute mindfuck.


And I'm only like a minute into the Stash jam, but this RULES.  I LOVE it.  Its all quiet and weird...  its like they're playing the Dead playing Dark Star in 1973.

Isn't this the kid who's currently blaming Kuroda for the state of Phish 3.0?

Question: how quickly after last night and friday's shows were the mp3s posted?

Within 3-4 hours

wow  :-o great news because im already dying to hear this set

No YEM to close?  with how that was the "if I have to play that for the rest of my life" song and then the I could play it 5 times a day it wouldn't shock me, Slave would be the expected though.

Of course if they play long there is always Coil and letting Page walk off.

dude. you need to catch up on some things...

umm....  YEM and Coil were Friday....

what the hell i took the drive home from my buddies house and missed a shit load.  I knew 2001 was on it's way :banana:

there are so many new people here on this thread....  and a few haven't even posted anything

Damned lurkers.

Slave has gotta close this one.

Wowwww what a 2nd set!!!!

Slave

There it is!!!   :banana:

daaaaaaaaaaaamn this looks heady

hahaha, I knew it.  i posted that Slave post like 40 seconds ago.  just took me THREE times to get the post to post cuz you fuckers keep posting posts while i'm trying to post a post.

It's not a call if you don't get it in before the update.

Slave

monster.

I've said "set's over" so many times this weekend and been wrong...

Slave has gotta close this one. 

THAT was a call.

So Tweeprize closer then?? :banana:

Cavern Tweeprise?

End set

Awsome set 2

Troof.

epic set on paper.

That it is.  Can't wait to hear it. 

EDIT: That was the first time tonight that I was able to post by hitting the post button only once!

These shows have been extremely short on bluegrass.  I guess Scent of a Mule counts, but that's about it, right?

Unreal weekend!

just got back from the show, what an amaaaazing weekend! 
I've only now seen 3 shows, but I feel like I've seen almost every song I could have wanted!

the crowd didn't seem as hyped tonight as saturday or friday, I guess many were tired, I know I was

Bathtub and DWD were the highlights for me....Bathtub was pretty straight to the point but rockin, and DWD had some very interesting jamming, but the end got dragged out a bit to long imo

I just hope by summer tour they can loosen up and start experimenting more

LOL... Now you pray for a DWD this good.

Also just got back. High points of the night were Maze jam and 2001. Surprised not to hear Lizards, Forbin, Mockingbird, and especially Curtain. Still an amazing first show.

maze was definitely pretty solid as well, the 2001 was short and it didn't feel like they got into a solid groove imo....

I kept waiting for trey to throw down the funky wah comping but it never happened....It seems trey has strayed away from using much FX like he did in later years

I don't remember hearing much of the boomerang either.....

also was disappointed that the tube jam turned right back into a trey shred fest, I was hoping for some tube funk all weekend but it wasnt quite there

the 2001 was short and it didn't feel like they got into a solid groove imo....

you'll be able to rethink that as you watch what i'm about to put on youtube. . .

2001 > Moma

11mins shot from right next to fishman's dad (the birthday boy!!! :-D)

Might as well get this out there also.

And that seems a perfect place to wrap shit up.
The thread went on for a while, weeks afterward, in fact, because we had not developed the Post-Show Discussion board. But here we are, 2+ years later... Are we better off?

Some will say "Yes".

Some will say "No".

Me?

I don't even care.

Hampton '09 was will always be special and you guys, whether at the shows or following along at home, are a part of it all.

I hope you've enjoyed this trip down memory lane.
We now return to your regularly scheduled circular debates.

The most interesting thing on the 'paug in months! Thank you, RJ.

yeah, well done RJ.  thanks for the work you put into this.  it was a fun read.

even not being at the shows, it was a fun weekend spending it on the LST with people here.  definitely a weekend I will always remember and the enthusiasm.

in closing, I have only one more thing to say
CRAIG, WHERE IS MY LINK!!!!!!!???

This!
Thank you RJ for recapping that.  I remember I was in Barbados during the 1st 2 nights and would check every once in awhile at the laptop in the lobby.  Even though I was soaking up the sun, I was envious of you MF'ers getting to rage the mothership.

Best thread (about a thread) ever!

Thanks again for putting it together (and for reminding everyone that I had a few choice calls there  :-D)

[Superfreakie]

Thanks RJ. I was not yet a member but was one of those lurking throughout the three days.

After reading through those posts I think it is safe to say that, without question, most here at the paug know music and have well developed critical listening skills, especially concerning the band we all know and love. Then again, this should come as no surprise seeing as most of us have seen hundreds of musical acts throughout the years while owning, to most, baffling music collections.   

[ytowndan]

Thanks, RJ!  This has been a blast to go back and read. 

You asked a couple times who "voopa" is, he is an old-school shnfamily member.  You were actually the hub's hero that weekend.  Everyone kept asking disco, bvaz and myself how we're getting our updates so much faster than phish.com.  We linked them to the thread and told them to watch for your updates.  I guess voopa decided to play along. 

[rowjimmy]

I'm glad you guys have enjoyed it.

Dan, thanks for clearing up the 'voopa' mystery. I was half joking and half curious.
