Phish Reunite...

To the Haters:
Why are you even bothering to post in this thread? If you don't like the band that's fine, but why go into a thread specifically about said band to say you don;t like them?

I don't invade your uber-math polka threads to tell you your favorite bands stink.

Those are my thoughts, as well. Way spend your valuable time spewing hate?

I am pumped, even though it was only a performance for a private wedding of their manager, what it all comes down to is that Phish, not 3 of 4 members, not the 4 guys on stage with other groups, but Phish was on a stage playing their tunes for people this past weekend. When I first read this (actually, the first article I read was on glidemagazine.com) this morning it put a huge smile on my face; it was some of the best Monday morning news I've read in a while :D

Let's get down to the nitty-gritty, let's get this show on the road!

It's just us longtime Metallica fans getting even. See the similarity ?

No, I don't.

I know this is old news here, but I can't remember if this was linked here on TB. It's further evidence of the boys wanting to get back together, straight from the horse's mouth:

A Letter From Page (6/26/08)

Given the volume of speculation and rumors that have bubbled up recently, I have been asked to make a statement…Here goes.

For me, the last four years have been great. I’ve spent quality time with my family and have watched my daughter grow. I took great pleasure and pride in writing and recording an album. I’m living a healthy lifestyle. I travel as little as possible and I sleep in my own bed. It took a couple of years after the break up to begin talking to my old band mates, but once the conversations began to flow it wasn’t long before the friendships were rekindled. And I can honestly say that I’m closer with all of them now then I’ve ever been in our 20-year relationship.

Recently the conversations have turned toward the possibility of spending some time together. Currently many of us have plans and projects already in the works, most notably Mike, who made a great album and is about to hit the road in support of it. Given that I might not even see some of the guys for the next six months, I would say that the announcement of a reunion is premature. However, later this year we hope to spend some time together and take a look at what possible futures we might enjoy. In fact the only real decision that has been made is that when we do get together, it will only be the four of us, hopefully with no distractions. I am really looking forward to that.

I want to say just a few more things. The prospect of Phish reuniting is something I consider very seriously, and I think about it a lot. And lastly, as always, there is plenty of misinformation floating around. Try not to focus too much on secondhand sources and random gossip. If there is anything real to announce, it will come from the four of us as a group.

Until then,
