This special episode was recorded live from Miami. We all traveled down to check out Phish for the 30th and NYE show and decided to put an episode together from the hotel room.
First up we talk about the lot scene at America Airlines Arena or lack thereof a lot. We found out that you make get closer than you want to with other phans in this particularly tiny lot.
We also talk about the iphone Phish apps Steve reviewed in our last episode. Steve and Laura managed to kill sometime on their long drive down to Florida using the app I Didn’t Know and we put the Phanatic app into good use last night to track all the bustouts from the show.
Speaking of bustouts last night was a great show and there were many bustouts throughout the night. We talk specifically about Tela and how one of our friends has been obsessed with this long-awaited song.
Often times we give travel tips, this time we talk about how our travels went getting to Miami and even managed to meet a Phan that came all the way from Germany. He runs a blog for all the Phans in Germany and Europe.
Even though we’re all in our late 20′s or older we discuss the age-old question of how much information do you give to your parents? Turns out some of us are still telling little white lies about where we go when we’re on tour.
The thing about Jennifer Dances was a bet Ian had with Andy Gadiel. Ian wanted Tela, while Andy is a Jennifer Dances fan. Ian won a free coffee from Andy. I think if there’s enough of a following, the band will play it. They’re definitely quite in tune to everything that is said on Twitter and the blogosphere.
@JLF_420 thinks the whole Rich/vacuum thing was setup like the Fishman/Sara thing.
Hi, I am the German guy you met at the BW breakfast. Actually the EU blog (www.bouncingaroundeuroom.eu) is owned by Guillaume (“Yome”) Carrillat from France and I only report for this site. It’s completely in English because there are probably more people from the US who might be interested in our view from a distance. The EU tour is definately not confirmed but part of our daily prayers and dreams
You can also check out my Phish Miami pics on Flickr (http://www.flickr.com/photos/treyanastasio/sets/72157623084195140/) Take care! It was such a great NYE run and worth every second of travelling and every Euro spent. Best, Holger
