Steve here everyone, and today I spoke with 2 of our “lot reporters” on the scene live at GOTV. 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!
After a few weeks on Phish tour and at High Sierra Music Festival the entire crew of TWoL is back for this episode! Emilie has been going nonstop since June 17th wooking it up with the best of them and has tales of tour from coast to coast.
We have a review of all the Phish lots we’ve been to since the last time we left our listeners at Merriweather. There were a lot of wooks, even more cops, some serious bust outs from the band, and Steve learns that luke warm wine from a bag doesn’t sell well on the lot. Just goes to show there’s always a lesson on the lot.
We received a TON of voicemails since our last full episode and we appreciate everyone leaving us amazing lot reports. There was so many we couldn’t get to all of them but we tried to bring you the best of the best. Looks like a lot of folks from Phish tour left us messages as well as some from Furthur. Keep them coming!
Last but not least we try out a new segment on the show reviewing a random search term people used to find our blog. We’re not exactly sure how the googles navigated people to our site from this term and even what the person really meant. You be the judge!
Thanks again to PhanArt for sponsoring us this month and to everyone who left voicemails. We’ll be announcing the random winner of the PhanArt package giveaway next week. Until then see you on the lot!

Hey guys, here is a special lot report, recorded in front of a live studio audience on the Hartford VIP lot, 6/18/2010. We talk all things lot, what was happening at Hartford, and what we suspect in SPAC. It’s funny, it’s informative, it’s TWoL.

Phish is back on tour!!! The first 4 shows have been a blast so far and the boys have been sounding great. Our old friend Noob Laura is back as a guest this week and explains to us the proper way to get someone to stop peeing in the bushes of a VIP area. You’ll have to listen to the podcast voicemails to hear all the details.
Steve made it to the Hershey as well as nTelos and has been spreading the love about TWoL. If you see him and his wine bar on lot, make sure to stop by and say hi. We’re also going to try to have a live setup going this Friday at the Hartford show where we’ll be recording live lot reports, so be on the lookout for that as well.

We welcome back Pete from PhanArt to discuss an upcoming art show and also to mention that he will be our sponsor for the first leg of tour. Listen to the episode to find out details on how you can win some uber h3tty posters and t-shirts from PhanArt.
First leg of Phish tour is right around the corner and we want to make sure that you are aware of ticket prices. We run through a quick ticket check of the first part of tour and let you know where prices stand. Surprisingly one of the smallest venues might not be as hard a ticket as previously thought.
Once again we want to say congratulations to Mr. Chris for winning the Alpine travel package from CID Entertainment. Keep those lot stories coming in people, we want to hear about anything and everything during this first leg of tour!
Congratulations to Mr. Chris who took 1st place and won the Alpine Valley travel package plus guest spot. Congrats to Jessica F. who took 2nd place and wins a guest spot on TWoL plus a beer on lot. Thanks to everyone who submitted a story. We truly appreciated your participation and enjoyed reading all your stories. Thanks for listening.

Emilie G. : Ground-score pro and lot mama of the group, she'll make sure you have a beer-in-hand at all times (koozie included). And she has lost a few pairs of shoes.
