I want to send my deepest, most heartfelt congratulations to the Vermont band PHISH.


After touring strongly in the 90's, starting completely off the radar and ending up at the top of the music scene, the post Cypress era brought confusion for the band. They were need a stronger sense of purpose to drive the music; a new light inside that could shine out to the world.

I think, knowing that some will disagree, that Phish is back with a cleaner energy than they ever had before. The new album, Jo… Continue

The brown barn looked best in autumn
The warm colors framed it all too well

OK- We are approaching summer 2009. Phish is back with a vengeance.

I want to take a moment and try to quiet all the buzz. First of all, this is a band. Bands play music... if you think they should have ended it with Coventry and closed the book, you are putting too much energy in the past. If you were thinking about the reunion every waking hour since Coventry, you are putting too much energy in the future.

But most importantly, I want to address some negative comments that have been circulat… Continue
