Tom and Trey periodically spend weekends writing songs, and this is about a house in Vermont they stayed in to do some writing. Upon arrival, there was a note from the housekeeper. "Welcome. This is a farmhouse. We have clusterflies this time of year. There is little we can do." Or something like that, you get the idea.After that they started playing Mike's Song, but then went to comercial.

Jesse Mann's Personal Conan Experience On Friday afternoon, November 7th, the 280 person crowd gathered for the taping of Late Night with Conan O'Brien only had one thing in mind. "What is Phish going to play?" OK, I might be exaggerating a bit (there were about 25 people not there to see Phish) but overall this was a very Phish oriented crowd. Conan could barely get the "Phi -" sound out of his mouth before the crowd would go nuts. Rip Taylor, Karl Maulden and even recently re-elected Mayor Rudy Giuliani took second stage to the boys from Burlington, VT from the very beginning of the show. After what seemed like a wait longer than any set break I have witnessed, Conan announced to the studio audience that the next act would be the musical group "Phish". The commercial break ended, Max Weinberg and his "7" paused, and the stage was rolled out to the main stage space. Trey, Mike, Page and Fishman walked into plain view . . . and all 4 of them were fully bearded. Anyway, the typical requests were thrown out to the band as Conan was about to introduce them, and Trey smiled when he heard someone call out for "Mike's Groove". Anyway, Conan gave the cue and they started right up. The song would be . . . well at the time, I didn't know. By no means do I claim to be the "consummate" Phish fan but I'd have to say that after 30 shows and about 100 hours of their stuff on DAT I should be able to pick out what they were playing. However, I couldn't recognize the opening melody nor the lyrics that Trey was singing with Page backing him up. Lots of folks in the audience seemed to have the same reaction, so I assumed it was a new tune. I won't go into an analysis of the lyrics, etc 'cause by now everyone has heard the tune. But I can say that the song showed a lot of promise, particularly with the jam that Trey segued into towards the end. Overall, a nice treat for the folks in the audience and obviously something special for the TV viewers at home later that evening. After Conan gave his thanks to the band, Trey dipped in to the opening notes of "Mike's Song" (probably to appease the guy who had screamed it before they started Farmhouse) . . . but alas, after about a minute or so the Stage Manager cut them off and away they went. Oh well, Fall Tour is right around the corner . . . and I can't wait for Hampton! |-) Peace -- JM
