I heard (RUMOR) that Phish is playing small venues under the name Acoustic
Hookah.  Anyone know anything about this?  Or if Acoustic Hookah (if
they're not Phish) is any good?  E-mail me if you've got any info please.
Sorry to put rumors on the net, but I've gotta know.  Please help!

They were planning on playing Sample, but Dave had heard Chalkdust on the 
radio, and asked them to play that instead.

Harry would have been incredible, but, like most people, I was expecting 
Sample or DwD or some such Hoistness.  Chalkdust was a big enough 
surprise for me...

allow to join the accolades of all who were at the show friday night - 
this was one of the best live shows ive ever seen...please please please 
do yourself the pleasure of seeing these musicians when they swing back 
around...o it was great to see trey, jon, and mike too. agreed, up front 
was the best spot to be...AK is an all 'round entertainer..not to mention 
that he and trey make nice dancing partners (not exactly the next fred 
and ginger though).
 again the request.......if anyone made tapes, id be happy to trade..

About those Italian phish bootlegs...
I've heard one that LOOKED really cool...a double disk set.
The problem was that it was $50 and I've heard better bootlegs from guys 
with pzm mics in the crowd.  Acutally, I think that's what these were, 
because the crowd noise (including people talking during the song) was as 
loud as the band.  It definitely was NOT a soundboard mix.  I guess if 
you're really jonesing for some live phish it may be worth $50 to you, 
but most people would have pity on you and just give you a copy of a 
show, wouldn't they?
Save your money.  Bootlegs are free, sanctioned, and just as good.

my .02.
Brian

Maybe the band decided Possum really didn't fit in with Gamehenge a took 
it out of the story. Like you said, it really didn't have much to do with 
the story anyway. 

I remember Trey saying in an interview that was posted on the net that 
Axilla II was part of Gamehenge. Llama is also part of Gamehenge. A lot 
of Phish songs can easily be related to Gamehenge just by saying they 
take place there. 

As Trey says at the end of one of the live versions, there is more to be 
added to the story. Until it is put down on a CD or possibly the 
interactive CD-ROM, Gamehenge is a story that is still undergoing 
changes. Some songs may be deleted some may be added.

As a story I think Gamehenge still needs a lot of work to make it flow
smoothly and to give it an ending. I like most of the songs but as a 
story it doesn't do much for me. I know it ain't easy to to make a story 
out of a group of songs. Tommy doesn't work at all for me. Pink Floyd did 
a good job with The Wall though.

Maybe I'll like the story of Gamehenge more when the movie comes out :)
Hmm, should it be live action or animated.

Eugene

P.S. There are no plans to my knowlege of a Gamehenge movie.

Yet another grovel, my 7/21/91 with the GCH is getting pretty bad, when I 
got it (my first Phish tape) it was already like a 10th gen SBD, but I 
love this tape so* much. I have about 15 shows to offer. Is there a kind 
soul that would trade this show for blanks or possibly another show? Thanks!

Well, 
I just got done listening to the Tweezer from the 11-2 show in Bangor, 
ME. Iknow much has been said about it, but since this was the first time 
I'd actually heard it, I wanted to say that I was magnificently blown 
away by it. Going and coming, I didn't know which way to turn...After 
going back into the Jam...Pop...Walk Away tease?...This Tweezer sent 
chills up my spine...And then Mango, just too much.

I liked this show so much that I must put up an offer for it. I will spin 
this show, you provide blanks and postage, to the first three people who 
can correctly tell me when the first Tweezer was (I know, it's not a 
tough one), date, city, and venue.

I would like to thank Andrew Cogan for this show and pass on that he is 
definately a great trader. If you can work out a trade with him, do so. 
Sorry Drew, I hope you don't get flooded. 

Finally, anyone with 11-9-91 Set II @ the Variety Playhouse in Atlanta,GA 
please get in touch with me, I will make it worth your while.

Thanks,
Lerm

Subject: *** A Message About/From Brad Kraft ***
Date: Tue, 14 Feb 1995 00:48:24

Hi Everyone, 

  If you are reading this post, then you are probably very aware of the 
situation surrounding the infamous Brad Kraft.  I had successfully traded with 
Brad in the past, and received very crisp tapes within a week.  So when he 
contacted me about a 12 tape trade, I agreed.  I sent out my 12 tapes, and I 
am still waiting for his.  I have waited for quite some time.
  So I called his house today to find out what was going on. I talked with his 
mother regarding the situation, and Brad subsequently called me this evening.
All information I have was shared by both Brad and his mother.  
  Apparently Brad has suffered a minor tragedy, the extent and details are 
unknown to me.  This, however, kept Brad away from his computer for several 
weeks.  During this time, Brad's account was FLOODED.  And the university 
cancelled his account due to the extraordinary amount of activity.  Thus Brad 
has not responded to any of our letters, because he has had no access to the 
net.  
  Brad committed to more trades than he could handle.  I am certain we have 
all (though not to such an extreme) done this.  Anyway, Brad is deligently 
working at taking care of his commitments.  His mom has assured me that she 
has personally taken  many packages to the post office.  Thus, I honestly 
believe that we will all receive our tapes eventually.
  To help Brad, please write him a SNAIL MAIL letter, and remind him of his 
commitment to you.  I will place his address at the end of this post.  Let him 
know the tapes he owes you: The show, tape type, Dolby preference, max points, 
etc.  You all know how it works.  This will slow the process, but it is the 
best way for Brad to handle this incredible burden he has taken on.  
  Additionally, please don't call his house.  I have been asked not to give 
out his number, and to discourage calls, since there have actually been 
THREATS to his family.  That's no way to handle this situation..... think 
about it.  I realize this is serious, but come on, that's no way to share in 
the groove.  This is effecting the entire family, and they are very 
considerate and concerned.  PLEASE encourage Brad, help him through this 
embarassing situation.  There is a lesson for all of us here.
  Also, I offered to have Brad return my tapes, send blanks, send a money 
order to pay for the tapes, etc.  There are alternative  ways to help Brad 
take care of his responsibility.  Be thoughtful here.  As it turned out, Brad 
has completed my tapes, because of my concerned Snail Mail.    
  Anyway, the net is a place to share ideas and common interests.  Let's not 
use it to destroy a person's name.  Brad is concerned and will complete his 
trades.  He has suffered a loss, he has missed a lot of school, and is still 
trying to function in society (maintain a job, etc.).  Think about the purpose 
of this group, and the people it attracts, we are all basically good people 
here......  
  If you feel you must flame ME, please do so privately.  I will happily 
respond to E-mail.  But let's end the bandwidth on this guy, and get on with 
our lives.  Spread some positive energy on the net, it feels much better, and 
makes everyone happier.

Best regards,
Sean McGhie
