Phish's 2018 Halloween show concept sounds very BoC OT-ish

Post by Opothecary »

I know that there's not usually much cross pollination between jambands and what we talk about here - as some background, Phish plays another well known band's album every Halloween as a musical "costume" - this year's is on deck in a couple of hours, and well, check it out, it's quite a different approach than the usual. Their own synopsis of it sounds like the Norwegian equivalent of a lost BoC album found in someone's attic:

Personally, I think it's just going to be an excuse for them to debut new material under the pretense of playing another band's lost album. This is literally all of the information out there about the album prior to tonight:

Take it or leave it, but I think it's a hilarious/great idea regardless of one's musical inclinations.

^ Upon further research, the above link from "2005" was actually recently planted - still loving the vibes that the invented backstory has though.

The 1970s/Nine Cubes/MKUltra/research bunker/200-500 copy pressing anecdotes is so scratching that late 90s BoC itch
