- Trey, Fish, and Mike reminisce during Gorge soundcheck about one of their earliest shows where everyone took LSD (but not Mike) and they scared away Jeff Holdsworth. This video was shot from the cliffs overlooking the Columbia River (incredible views) and recorded the conversation between Trey, Fish and Mike who were checking vocal mics with front of house sound engineer, Garry Brown.
Trey: (cough) My voice isn’t coming out of the speakers. Is that where my mouth was? It was too much. Page trying to talk and it didn’t work. We stood there for like, fifteen minutes, and then we realized that … if I played my guitar and some actual chords (inaudible) finally we just ran away and never played.
Fish: Actually, the other guitar player Jeff Holdsworth ran away and never came back.
Trey: He never came back. That was the last gig he ever played.
Mike: I remember he kept walking up to the mic and trying to sing and he couldn’t.
Trey: And Mike turned to me at one point … we were up there for at least ten minutes … it was the most awkward thing …. Mike turned to me and said, “Check everyone’s minds they’ve turned to egg yolks” which, meant so much to me.
(inaudible, bass tuning in background)
Trey: It was the most profound thing that anyone had ever said to me. We never played. That was it.
Fish: Didn’t Mike also say, “let’s go to G now” … I think he was playing a C …. And said “just play a G”
Trey/Fish: Just play a G chord.
Mike: You couldn’t figure out a G chord.
Trey: And what’s a chord? It’s so many wires, it’s so many frets.
(bass tuning)
Trey: Maybe we should try that tonight, what do you think Garry?

Thanks!!!
Oh thank you.
and then
Let’s do it.
Yup I’m game , let’s do it.
Did they just drop tabs on mic during sound check ? Does this mean trey is sober from opiates but still doses now and then?
@@SunnyHippies nah this story is years old. Probably like early 80’s
I love this
And what’s a chord? It’s so many wires, it’s so many frets.
HAHAHA
Awesome!
I remember standing outside the gates barely hearing this😂🤦🏼♂️
where do you find this stuff
Would anyone happen to have any clue what time period they are referring to? Wonder if there's any connection, whether directly or indirectly, to this:
"After a transformative journey to Alaska in the summer of 1986, Holdsworth settled in the Philadelphia area and decided to pursue purely acoustic music within a spiritual context."
The last show Holdsworth played was 5/17/86 at Goddard, but there are no recordings. So in this context, that would have been the show they are referring to.
Yes 1986
I think they're referring to the Goddard Haybarn show from October 1985. It was supposed to be a Halloween gig. They had dosed apple cider that they passed around while getting set up and then didn't/couldn't play. A few days later was the 10/30/85 Hunt's show and at some point Trey said it was good to be back on Earth or something like that.
No sound...?
Drooling in the FOUR green without weeds
Yeah,....that does not make you sound stupid at all.
