Good looks! Ty, sir.

It was a shared drive that dropped in late 00s with easy download access to basically every Phish show ever.

I have similar memories of when “the spreadsheet” dropped for Phish. All of a sudden, everything was available. Simpler times!

My entire commentary here is basically: put out Dave’s Picks on streaming or Nugs!

Yeah, you’re most definitely correct. My naive take is those things should be able to coexist. I find it hard to believe that the hardcore collectors of physical media would suddenly stop buying if a streaming service rolled out.

But the risk probably isn’t worth it to your point.

Oh for sure, same here. The amount of readily available soundboards and pristine recordings will never cease to blow my mind.

It would definitely be more of a luxury with nearly every show on Relisten, to your point. But having readily available access to the best possible recordings of the hundreds of releases across Dave’s Picks, Box Sets, etc., would be pretty damn sweet.

They have all the Dick’s Picks, Euro72, and select box set releases on all the streamers, but I’m asking for a service with everything (Dave’s Picks, every box set release, etc.) a la Live Phish+.

I’d personally pay a handsome annual fee for that.

My favorite spot! If you never tried it, I HIGHLY recommend the red square with green olives.

F&F in Carroll Gardens?

Yep, we have mail-in / absentee voting + 9-days of early voting leading up to actual election day. People have very little reason not to vote.

It’s an absolute banger every single time.

I mean I totally get not wanting to play 75-80 shows a year if you don’t need to. If ~50 shows is the new sweet spot, hopefully we get far fewer festival appearances and one setters.

…and have only played 13 two set shows since 6/30 🫣

One of the best! He announced new full band album coming in the spring and then played one of the unreleased songs with his keyboardist.
