We apologize for the delay in getting you an episode Steve was overcome with the wook flu last week and we were unable to get an episode up. However, I think this weeks episode definitely makes up for the delay.
Our guest this week is Andy Gadiel from Jambase.com and Andy Gadiel’s Phish Page. Andy gives us a rundown about how he got started with Jambase and the history of his personal Phish page. A word of advice, always volunteer at a music festival, it just might change your life.
Next up we talk about the shows we’ve attended in the last 2 weeks and what was happening in the lot scenes. All 3 of us made it to a recent show although some of the shows were better than others. Steve also chimes in about what’s “grinding his gears” wait till you hear how much he paid for a single beer.
Rumors, what would the intrawebz be without them? Phish is not so much “rumored” to be playing Telluride in Colorado as it’s been in the local news. Also heavily rumored is that Phish might be playing at Wrigley Field in Chicago on June 1st Andy certainly hopes so as he originally hails from the windy city and the rumored date is on the eve of his birthday.
The Disco Biscuits Camp Bisco has been announced and Steve is excited for the lineup. We find out that Andy actually attended the very first Camp Bisco and has some fond memories. Also make sure to check out Honest Tunes Radio Show , they’ll be interviewing Tea Leaf Green soon.
Speaking of history, yesterday was the one year anniversary of the return of Phish. This was also the same weekend that Nick first met Noob Laura in person. Happy Anniversary to Phish and Happy Anniversary to the This Week on Lot original crew.
Hope everyone enjoys this episode, we’re hoping to have Andy back on again soon to give us a live “lot” report from SXSW.
Next for Wrigley: Dave Matthews, Paul McCartney, Phish?
February 10, 2010 2:56 PM Wrigley Field will host three concerts for the second summer in a row if the local alderman gets his way.
Ald. Tom Tunney, who 44th ward includes the Wrigleyville neighborhood, introduced an ordinance at today’s City Council meeting to allow concerts on July 7 and Sept. 17-18 at the ballpark at the corner of Clark and Addison streets.
Though the ordinance does not mention bands, a source with knowledge of the situation said the July 7 date likely will be a return engagement by Elton John and Billy Joel, while the Dave Matthews Band, Paul McCartney and Phish are potential acts to play the two September dates. Just one performer will take the stage both nights in September, the source said.
Thanks for the Tea Leaf Green webcast link. That’s tonite (March 9). The ustream channel is on now. There will be pre-show on and off throughout the day. I just set up a permanent link back to This Week On Lot in my sidebar under the category Jam Music Podcasts. I’ll listen again. Andy Gadiel got me over here via his Twitter this week.

When I saw Wig Jam several years ago, they were discussing what to play and they said something like “let’s play _____ from Dick’s Picks __”. So they were learning the songs from the various live albums and just playing the jams as the Dead did.
