    "So I'm [onstage playing during a jam], and I'm like scanning all the time, you know - like what's Mike doing, what's Page doing, what's Mike doing, what's Fish doing. And sometimes what you find is that a band member is off in their own world. And you can tell. Right? That's... pretty rarely Page. It's really... I love that guy. He's always like RIGHT there."

    The bulk of all the shows I have seen, around 40, the best were in this era, My first show was 94, Incredibly complex and great stuff like Trey describes, and then the jams grew and grew. Favorite opener for me is " My Friend My Friend" back in these days.

    My takeaways: Treys favorite era is 92'-93'. In the lead up to 11/17/97: 1997 was the band's busiest year, they were practicing and recording everyday so when they went out on tour they were well rehearsed. In 1997 they started writing slower, groovier, less composed songs for Siket disc and Farmhouse which they carried with them on tour. They were listening to funk music on the bus from James Brown all the way to Colorado. King Gizzard is Trey's favorite band.

    I got pretty far into this before I realized Tom Marshall was doing this lol. This is the first time I've heard Trey get into detail and talking about phish music and phish tours from the era where me and many others got into them / mid and late 90s... it used to drive me crazy to have to sit at home and miss phish shows, and while I do feel like in many ways they are at the top of their game, as a good friend of mine says, there's nothing that they can do that I haven't seen them do so at this point I just check in and I'm like oh good my boys are still at it. And I still try to hit a show or two each year maybe I'll midlife crisis part 2 in a few years and try to do six of them like I did back in 14 LOL

    The whole episode I was waiting for them to ask Trey about where Phish is now growth-wise. Of course, it was answered with unpredictable Phish fashion - Phish are going to be a boyband now. Phish should open MSG with NYSNC "BYE BYE BYE" full dancing.

    Trey: “We had this incredibly tight…we used to practice from 11 in the AM until 6pm at night and it was all planned out. It was insane, and we had this massive song list already. Songs like Divided Sky and Maze, really original sounding music. There was a shift that happened sort of in the mid to late 90’s, would you agree with that? We were jammy and looser”
    Tom Marshall: “Yeah, around 93-94 really is when it started to shift. We talked about a show from the summer of ’95, Finger Lakes with the 50-minute Tweezer. I think people were confused…people who had seen shows in ’94 came back in ’95 and we’re like “where did this go”? I think that’s what you’re referring to, like 92-95.
    Trey: That’s what I’m referring to. You have to set up that 97 show with what was happening and what came before it. The Tweezer that was important for the four band members was the Bangor Tweezer, I think that was 94 (note: he’s referring to the 11/2/94 Tweezer from “A Live One”). We had these listening exercises, and we’d also been playing this incredibly intertwined, composed…all that early Phish from '92 was written with a pencil, you know what I mean? Where the bass, and the two hands of the piano and the guitar, and even some of the drum hits were composed and tongue-in-groove. Its very complex music. If you listen to “All Things Reconsidered”, or “Divided Sky”, or “YEM”, all that early stuff. Foam…Foam is completely composed, start to finish. So what that did was taught the band to be in a mindset where every bass note was harmonized, going by fast…if you stopped the music in the middle of Fluffhead, Mike is playing a four note chord at any time with the rules of counterpoint. So all this discipline that came before the jamming in 97, and sometime around 94-95, we started talking and said “ok, let jam the way a band that listens to each other when we jam, and not the band that one guy takes a solo”. That was a conscious choice that was happening sometime around 94-95. But I do remember old fans being like “you’re losing me here, I don’t understand what’s happening”

    It warms my heart to hear these people talk about some of the greatest music to ever exist. I do have to disagree with Trey about one thing and that is that KG is the greatest band alive. That title belongs to The Disco Biscuits (at least in my ears, mind, heart, and opinion). B4L

    So basically Trey admits he’s conflicted about how awesome the music was, because of the drugs and being away from his family.
    Which is like, a theory people have about why the music now is the opposite of what it was. Wild

      He's talking about the Miles Davis record
      en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jack_Johnson_(album)

    • @superjay42
      @superjay42 ปีที่แล้ว +10

      The Miles Davis album (aka "A Tribute to Jack Johnson") from 1971, not the singer-songwriter from Hawaii. The Miles record was named for (and written to accompany a documentary on) the famous boxer who came to prominence during the Jim Crow era and went on to be the first Black heavyweight champion in boxing. It's characterized by clearer rock and funk influences than Miles' previous work and pioneered a lot of the sound that would go on to become known as 'fusion' in the latter 70s. It featured some of the biggest names in jazz and fusion: Herbie Hancock, John McLaughlin, Chick Corea, Dave Holland, Jack DeJohnette, Benny Maupin, and Billy Cobham. It's a seminal Miles record and a huge influence on so much music that came after.
