Mike Gordon has been confirmed as a performer for the Rothbury Music Festival in Rothbury, MI on July 3rd and the 18th Annual High Sierra Music Festival in Quincy, CA on July 5th.

He'll be bringing a new band with him, and will also have a new album coming out late summer. They're apparently deep in recording right now with special guests; some new friends, some old...

More to come as it develops

PhishOff!

My co-worker and I just engaged in a "Phish-Off!" to close out our Tuesday afternoon at JamBase HQ.

He started with a sick Slave to the Traffic Light from Portland 93, following by a dish of my favorite Harry Hood from 12/17/95 (tour closer, 5th gear from Trey!), back to him for Free from Brooklyn '04, my turn: Cavern > Wilson > Cavern from 7/13/94 Big Birch, he rocked an unknown Reba and finally I closed things out with a "best in the game" 5/14/94 Fluffhead.

Good times all around...

Comment Spam

I've disabled comments on this blog due to an overwhelming amount of Comment Spam. I get emailed every time someone comments, and all the comments are automated bots including 100s of links to their annoying wares.

If you're looking for a place to talk and chat, you can check out the JamBase Phish Forum and go to town. Also see who's playing in your town while you're there.

While we're on the subject, did you know that the term "Phishing" was co-opted by the media to describe people sending out emails with false links tricking people into clicking through to their site which would steal their credit card information?

Crazy.
