Happy happy oh my friend! TWoL is one year old! Thank you to everyone for your continued support and encouragement, it means more than you know!
This week we have some old friends back to discuss the wrap up of leg 2 of Phish Summer Tour and the upcoming Fall 2010 Tour. Our guests are Scotty who runs YEMblog and also does work for Hidden Track on Glide Magazine, and an old favorite…Noob Laura! Although she might not be a Noob anymore, you’ll have to listen to find out the details.
Bringing some positivity to the Phish scene there was an announcement today that the Mockingbird Foundation and The Mimi Fishman Foundation has raised over $1 million dollars! Glad to see things like that a making some “mainstream” news instead of the JB jumper.
Also hot off the press are the results of the Phish Summer Tour Survey that our friend Parker (the same Parker of the now infamous SKYGATE2010 TWoL debate) created. We all agreed and were glad to see that Deer Creek was the winner for the best lot.
Next up we decide to open up the closet and listen to the very first pilot episode of TWoL, it’s only 2 minutes long but it brings back many a memory. We also discuss what are our favorite moments on TWoL during a recap of the previous years episodes.
Finally as always we listen to your voicemails and check out a photo submission we received from one fan. Thank you everyone for listening and submitting your voicemails, photo’s, and comments, we really appreciate it.

We really want to take TWoL to the next level and provide live streams and interviews broadcasting from the lot. If anyone enjoys what we’re doing and wants to donate toward the cost of equipment so we’re able to make this dream come true please visit our donation page.

TWoL 40: It’s Raining Men!

After missing last week, we had to make it up this week with an extra long episode for you with a packed house on the podcast. Our friends Andrew and Mike from GlowStickWars.com join us as well as our friend Eric from the now infamous SKYGATE2010 scandal.
Emilie is back from Telluride and Steve made it out of Jones Beach unscathed, even though it was raining men…I mean wooks. But in all seriousness we here at TWoL are glad the fan was ultimately not seriously injured, although we don’t encourage or condone this type of behavior.
So the big news is that Phish Fall Tour was finally announced today! Some rumors were true and as usual some were totally bunk. Our friend Scotty from YEMblog has a great rundown of the venues slated for this Fall as well as the capacities that each can hold. It looks like this tour Phish is keeping it short, small, and sweet with no venue holding more than 14,000 a night. Although the tickets are $10 more this year, we discuss the possible reasons for the higher rates and how this could affect lot economics. Are the days of 2 for 5 over? Say it ain’t so.
Furthermore, for the second year in a row fans will be treated to a Halloween show, will there be a cover this time and what album will they cover? You’ll have to listen to the podcast to hear our predictions. You can see all the dates and ticket info here.
This was the last week for picture contest entries, congratulations to our friend and long time listener Tyler for his winning photo he took. We would also like to give a big thank you again to Andrew and Mike for being the TWoL sponsor for second leg of Phish Summer Tour! You can see Tyler’s winning entry below.
Last but certainly never least we run through your voicemails. Thank you to everyone who submitted a lot report we received a TON of reports from fans the past 2 weeks, keep them coming! We would like to give a special shout out to Jessica F. the winner of our CID Entertainment travel package to Alpine Valley. She left one of the most thorough lot reports we’ve ever received and it sounds like CID Entertainment took care of business and she had a blast!
Don’t forget to keep the lot reports coming and we’ll see you next week on lot!

TWoL 39: “Hell U Ride”

The 2nd leg of Phish tour has started and it’s off with a bang! Emilie is absent this week as she was abducted by some wooks and forced to travel to Telluride, we make an attempt to contact her at the show but alas it was not to be. Apparently it was one hell of ride to get from the Greek to Telluride, she’ll be back next week to fill us in on experience.
Nick just got back from 3 nights at the Greek theater and runs through the “lot” scene or lack there of, as well as a talk about the beauty of the venue both in location and the sound. There was plenty of wooks around, I mean it’s Berkeley, CA but for the most part he managed to ignore the spunions and have a pretty good time. Take a listen to the podcast to get the whole story.
We also run a ticket check to see what Deer Creek, Alpine Valley, and Jones Beach tickets are running, not surprisingly seems like they hovering around face for lawns and slightly above for pavilions. If anybody has an extra Tuesday they are looking to unload Steve is still on the hunt.
This week we had our friend Spike on and he runs through a lot report for the Big Up Festival held in Ghent, NY. This festival combined different types of music and art, from the untz to jambands. All in all it sounds like a good time, you’ll have to take a listen to the podcast to hear full details.
As always we run through your voicemails to hear what’s going on in your lot. Thank you everyone who left a message, keep them coming!
Last but not least we run through the photos for our contest to win free glow sticks, from GlowStickWars.com. This week’s winner is Noob Laura for her picture of spunions wearing glowsticks and staring at flames. Keep your photo submissions coming and remember to put GSW in the subject line of your email so we don’t miss it. Once again that email address is info@thisweekonlot.com hit us up!
See you next week on lot!

As usual, the “tronz” messed with us again, and we had to call an audible at the last minute. Nick couldn’t stay online, so this week you got Emilie, Noob Laura and myself. At the top of the hour, we talk all things Greek and Phish tour. Mostly, we want everyone in a toga for Saturday. But beyond that, we kick down some tricks to make sure everyone has a good time.
Next, we talk about some recent Jam Cruise artist additions. Emilie wants on like you wouldn’t believe. Apparently, I have no idea who Taylor Hicks is. And Noob Laura realizes that you can get snacks all the time on a cruise ship. All in all, we definitely would like to see TWoL get on the boat. (Did someone say first podcast in international waters? 
Last but not least, we have some great lot reports this week. Everything from DMB to Glitter Fest 2010 (aka SCI). Keep the reports coming. Keep the glowstickwars.com photos coming (see here for info). And check us out on lot in a few days.
Be good,
Steve
PS. I think we mentioned Snooki too, but I’m not sure why.

Meredith and “Toonces” check in with us, and give a break down of the scene, bands they like, and all the fun happenings that is vibes. Both are veterans of GOTV, and have been raging 24/7 since they got there on Thursday. We appreciate them taking the time out to speak with TWoL so we can all get a glimpse of this major northeast festival.
All the details are in the episode, but I will give you this spoiler: “Go to the Vibes next year!”

This weeks episode was a whirlwind of good times and technical difficulties. We apologize for the mishaps, our internets were getting wook’d this week. Even though the interwooks tried to take us down we pressed on and managed to finish the episode. Props to the chat room folks who stayed with us through the mayhem!
This week is a Phish ticket check, and low and behold tickets for the Greek and Telluride are holding steady at well above face. With the first leg of tour having some major bustouts, no official Fall Tour announcement yet, these being the only shows on or near the West Coast, demand is through the roof! Speaking of the Greek, Nick is holding a Tweetup at the 5 Restaurant inside of Hotel Shattuck in Berkeley, CA. To RSVP and get more details click here.
Remember we still have our photo contest going on courtesy of our sponsor for Phish Summer Tour part II, Glowstickwars.com. Check out the pictures below and congratulations to this weeks winner! Don’t forgot to bring your camera and send your photo submissions to info@thisweekonlot.com and each week we will pick a winner and Glowstickwars.com will ship you some uber h3tty glowsticks for free!
As always don’t forget to hit us up with your voicemails, we expect to have a full mailbox of lot reports with all the shows going on these next few weeks!

Hey guys, this week we have a special report for ya, live from Camp Bisco 2010. This is a unique episode, as it will bring some firsts to the program. As usual, we hit you up with an episode discussing the scene. This week, the players are “Noob” Laura, PhanArt Pete, and myself (Steve). We review the camp grounds, our favorite sets of music, and all the “WHOMP” we ran in too (WHOMP is the new UNTZ). Next, I hit shakedown and scored interviews with vendors and artists. Finally, we add some updates during the rain delay that occurred on Saturday night, delaying the Biscuits final throw down.
In addition to the episode, I also have put together some photos and videos of the weekend. There is so much to do at Camp Bisco, it would be impossible to do it justice in the half hour broadcast. True to our mission, we are bringing you a snap shot of “the lot”, but I couldn’t help but throw in some band photos and coverage. This was my 5th Camp Bisco, and without hesitation, I can say it was for reals the best one. If you have never been, you have to go next year. I know I will be going.
Finally, I would like to apologize for the crappy audio on my mic during the first half of the episode. Laura and Pete sound good, but I had some weird shit going on. I hope this isn’t a deal breaker, the rest of the audio is great, but I wanted to acknowledge it. Also, big ups to Laura and Pete for joining in this episode. Thanks to the carenwest pr for having TWoL on the scene. Finally thanks to the Disco Biscuits for putting on one hell of a good time!

This week we have some very special guests/sponsors on the show all the way from Canada! Andrew and Mike join us from GlowStickWars.com and we discuss a little about their site and what they’re all about. They will also be giving away glowsticks to a few lucky listeners during the 2nd leg of Phish tour this summer. For details on how to win you’ll have to listen to the podcast.
With the first leg of Phish Summer Tour 2010 done and the 2nd part getting ready to start it’s about time some bunk Phish Fall Tour 2010 dates started to show up. This little gem was plucked from the intrawebz, besides Austin City Limits and the heavily rumored Vegas shows, TWoL is calling nanners on the rest of it. You think that if this was an official list they would at least be able to spell Gainesville right. Hopefully we have to eat our words and the whole thing comes true, but let’s just say we aren’t holding our breath.
In other news Steve is heading to Camp Bisco 9 this weekend where he will be attempting to get some h3tty interviews from the lot and festival scene while getting down with the untz. There’s a ton of amazing music lined up you can check out all the artists here, it all culminates with 3 shows by the Disco Biscuits. If you haven’t secured your tickets for this untz filled weekend, don’t worry tickets are still available at the gate. For more info on tickets for Camp Bisco 9 check out this link. Don’t forget your flatbrim people, it’s going to be one hell of a weekend!
Thank you again to everyone who left us voicemails, we play a few of them at the end of this episode and Nick nearly vomits when he hears where a wookette’s tongue has traveled. To hear the gruesome story you’ll to tune and take a listen. Peace everyone, we’ll see you next week on the lot!
