DMB in Europe, hint for a Phish tour ?

by Yome NetSan 20. October 2009

Although some phishheads keep saying that the Dave Matthews Band isn't a jam band and can't be compared to Phish, I'm a little interrested in the recent announcement of a European 2010 tour.

The main reason for my interrest is that both Phish and DMB are in the same management company, Red Light Management. While I'm not really sure the management company and the ticket selling are related, it's a fact that the bands also shared the same TicketMaster ticket selling system.

I will sure take a look at the ticket selling process with DMB to prepare for a hypothetic Phish tour. A big difference already is that DMB has a paying fan club (The Warehouse) where fans can purchase tickets before their public release. Phish doesn't have such a private selling website. I will also check if the tickets will be available through regular european markets.

I can see that there is a 4 mounths gap between the anouncement (20th oct. 2009) and the first show (13th feb. 2010). If the rumors are true, we can expect an announcement for a Phish European tour by december 2009. We can only wait...

-------------------------------------

On a side european note, I received a nice mail from a German based jam band radio show called Stash. Recent shows can be downloads as mp3 file and showcase bands like Phish, Grateful Dead or Cosmic Fingers.

One year ago today

by Yome NetSan 1. October 2009

tonight is the one year anniversary of the last time (hopefully) we will know a world with no phish. my life has changed so much since october 1, 2008. i was at an awful part of my life, stuck in a completely trainwrecked relationship, borderline failing out of school. then on october 1, 2008, i woke up to 7 texts and 3 missed calls. i hadn't been pt'ing too much at the time, so phish was at the way back of my mind. my initial reaction was that there had been a family emergency, but alas, it was friends and family telling my that my band was back together. i could not contain my excitement, i skipped class, reconnected with long lost phish friends, and since then, have completely turned my life around again.

it is stupid to say that phish's reunion helped me get my life back together, because that simply isnt true. but they did rekindle my passion for music, how much i enjoy playing it, and how it is the only thing that makes sense to me in the entire world. i started listening to my favorite albums again, like revolver, and started listening to phish again, and how fresh and new the world was. i have had a new, optimistic and music filled life since 10/1/08, and tonight is the anniversary of when i said goodbye to a sad existence.
