BREAKING: PHISH PHANS PHIGHT BACK!!!!!! Erica's Husband To Lead Phish-a-Lution!

Sorry Erica, I'm doing this for your own good. I've changed your password and taken over the site.
Benjamin wouldn't agree to help me, but he said he wouldn't stop me either. Do not try to login...the current has changed and the Phish are swimming upstream.
I know that having a sense of humor is important, but at the end of the day, it's not right to trash people's beliefs. And that's what a love of Phish is to many different types of people around the four corners of the globe - I don't want to say it's a religion, because that tends to invoke imagery of the conventional "god" systems that have caused so much abuse around the world - but in it's purest form of meaning - that's exactly what being a phish head means.
We are a group of people who band together for one reason - it's not about drugs, or the clothes we wear, or the standard ideals we reject - it's about the music. When we come together under one roof, or preferably under the dark glow of a starry night sky, and the music begins to play, we travel to a land the likes of which can't be found in any conventional playlist. Especially yours, just look at this shit:

When the lights go down, and the crowd takes a deep breath, and the music plays - that's when we all go together. Everything vanishes - the snark, the bad vibes, the Bernie Madoffs, the sushi - everything subsides and together we adventure toward love.
None of this matters - what is this - what is FIPS? Making fun of people? Pretending you're bigger than people? Pretending you don't have the same insecurities and thoughts and softspots and dreams and worries as your fellow man? Pretending that you don't need to be loved?
Please don't try to put the site back. I'll be home when this is through - I'm not sure when that will be - it's up to the music. Go Erica, wherever the current drifts...

dear greg,
you've got to set the gearshift for the high gear of your soul. also, whatever you do, take care of your shoes.
sincerely yours,
shawn.
Erica, be careful, the only thing more unpleasant than stroller moms is an angry mob of joggers coming up to knock you down...
:)
Phish is back? who cares? isn't trey on heroin? or is he clean? Shouldn't these people be back in vermont doing yoga taking care of their children? wait a second i love phish, they are the best, like the grateful dead but without old people...
steal your face right off your head
Yes that play list is eye sodomizing but do two wrongs really make a right man? I'm gonna tell you the same thing I told those Dead Heads; don't tell me it's not about the drugs, cause we all know Jerry was just as much into a fucking eight ball as he was the music. That song about riddin' trains on cocain wasn't some sudden stroke of inspiration.
OMGWTFBBQ!!!
Holy phuckin' gooballs, Greg... PUT DOWN THE PHATTY VEGGIE BURRITO YOU BOUGHT IN THE PARKING LOT.
And Erica... Ja Rule? Really?
Now you guys are funny!
Thanks.
I think that the collective musical interests of this group are deplorable. People! You live in Brooklyn. Get some new music into those eardrums!
I mean, Phish? Are you in high school experimenting with "the pot" kicking a hackeysack around? I have really never understood the whole thing.
By the way, the new background is making my eyes bleed.
You've finally corssed the line...this is offensive...take this psychedelic shit off...and let Erica back in!!
I AM BOYCOTTING YOUR SITE UNTIL YOU LET ERICA BACK IN AND TAKE THIS PHISH CRAP DOWN!!!!!!!!!
i also have to say that the playlist is incredible. i've cried many times to something to believe in!!!!!!!!
Holy shit Adrienne and Maggie are tie-dye. Also, "Something to Believe In" - fucking LIVE nonetheless? LOLZ. This shit is bananas!
Erica-- sorry these numbnuts are treating you badly. Anyone who goes to Salon Harmony is cool in my book and this behavior is akin to being back in high school.
BUT-- I think it's purty!
WOW, I have only been following this blog for week now and it has already gone gay, talking about Phish! Jesus this is less relevent that how bad the indian food is in Park Slope.
Unless Phish and there dirt farming hippy following are coming to Prospect to perform, then who cares.
PHucked in Park Slope?
SHARING IN THE GROOVE! i've always said that even if you dont like the band, you have to respect the talent that they have as musicians and songwriters. there is a reason that i want to quit my job and go back on tour, and its bc my boys are back, and better than they have been since the mid 1990's.
relax, the world will spin beside itself and suck you in with threats and hopes beyond compare.
wow everyone needs to chill with the haterade
Hell yes, Greg!
I'm with you 100%, and pleased to see there are so many Park Slope Phish fans.
See you at all at Jones Beach!!!
If I'm in the bathtub, do I take a rubber duck? a fish? or a phish? I believe the phish would kill me. I'll go with the rubber duck.
You guys are crazy fun. But I would let Erica back in, she is the best writer on this blog. And Phish sucks big hairy balls.
I agree Erica is the best on this site...boycotting is inline...However, Harmony salon is not among her cool points, I don't like that place, partly because they were originally called Medusa's and changed their name to this oober gay Harmony bull shit.
Q: What did 1 Phish fan say to the other when they ran out of drugs?
A: Shit dude, this band sucks!
GIVE US OUR SITE BACK AND CRAWL INTO YOUR MUDPIT!!
I am so all about Team Erica. Lop off your locks Greg, hand the keys back to Erica and lets get back to business.
"I think that the collective musical interests of this group are deplorable. People! You live in Brooklyn. Get some new music into those eardrums!"
-This is hilarious. You moved to Brooklyn and made sure to weed out any of your musical tastes that weren't 'Brooklyn' to you. You're the true douche here. AND you're too cool for 'the pot'?
"I mean, Phish? Are you in high school experimenting with "the pot" kicking a hackeysack around?"
You: I don't listen to suburban music anymore or smoke 'the pot' like my buddies did in high school. That's so high school in Ohio.
Me: Stop, please. You're an embarrassment to people who moved to Brooklyn from the midwest. Get over yourself.
