Rumor: Van Halen & Phish to headline Bonnaroo 2012

Do the math.

Dude. Also, possible Radiohead set to open for Van Halen.

Phish Books: FALL 98

Fall 98

"Suspend your normal grooming habits and dash on the patrouli, it's time for Phish tour. Hit the road with Julian Jakos, a precarious 23-year-old, as he quits his job at a sock factory and hops in the Isuzu Trooper of Peter Grossinger, a kleptomaniac gas station attendant who also works the night shift. As they travel across America Fall 98 chronicles Julian's arresting adventures with sex, drugs, rock n' roll, rogue cops, raver-hippy hybrids, maniacal twirlers, and mile after mile of interstate. This extraordinary read is a non-stop coming-of-age tale that's as much comical as it is disparaging, a book so saturated with drug logic you'll think you're being dosed. Not just a novel for Phish fans, Fall 98 is a universally identifiable adventure in escapism."

Rumor: BETHEL MEMORIAL DAY CONFIRMED

BETHEL MEMORIAL DAY CONFIRMED
http://bit.ly/z7VVvA
via PTthreadofday

Town Clerk: Hello, how may I help you? 

Me: Hi, I was told you might be able to help me out. My wife and I live part time residents, and we are planning on having our daughter's wedding here in Bethel over Memorial Day weekend at our home. My wife was told yesterday that the town may be hosting some big "Rock & Roll Festival" over the holiday weekend. Needless to say, we are thinking that this may NOT be the ideal weekend to bring dozens of family and friends into town. 

Town Clerk: No, sir. Theres's no rock festival. It's the band Phish. They are playing at Bethel Woods. They were here last year, and they are coming back again. They have very nice fans, and they are not a rowdy crowd. I wouldn't alter your daughter's wedding plans. 

Me: Are you positive that this is taking place over Memorial Day Weekend? 

Town Clerk: "Yes"

Rumor: Phish to Play Bonnaroo 2012. Also, Kanye Still Sucks

The fiasco of 2008 is still a sore topic among the Bonnaroo crowd.

Maywa Denki Otamatone Music Instrument

This device is singlehandedly the most useful tool for composing music I have ever seen. Not only is the tone impeccable and unforgettable, but it also helps you improve your ear. Better snag a couple now before these babies become hard to find!

Product Features

• Three pitch levels and two volume levels.
• 1 octave plus a diminished 5th per pitch level.
• Dimension: 2.75" x 2.75" x 10.75"
• Straight from Japan!

Ok, so in theory, playing the Otamatone Electronic Instrument is unbelievably easy. You place your finger on the stem to select the pitch. To get vibrato (or any sort of wah-wah effects), you just squeeze the note's rubber cheeks repeatedly. This will open and close the little dude's mouth. Now, we did say easy in theory. That's because the strip on the stem has no pitch labels or frets, so you really have to have a good ear. That said, you can easily just slide between notes, both for ease of playing and for even more musical effect. The Otamatone Electronic Instrument is wacky, adorable, distinctive, and can be a great instrument for some unique electronic performances.

Fact: Phish Will Never Play Bonnaroo

The subject says it all.

Notes: Fluffhead contained an Auld Lang Syne tease from Trey. Prior to Steam, a steam kettle and hot plate went off on stage, with Trey acting like he was attempting to put out the steam. Shortly after the song began, steam also came from the floor near the soundboard area. An amp (with the steam kettle on it), a keytar, a bass, a vacuum, and a few lights were then lifted off the stage. A woman in the front of the stage tossed a “Steam” sign into the front row, then rose with a barricade and security guard before eventually being lifted up over the band. Several other aerialists (clothed in various casual attire, equipped with black backpacks emitting smoke and lights on their backs) subsequently rose up from the crowd and ascended and descended several times. The first aerialist counted down to midnight, at which point balloons were released from the ceiling. The aerialists later returned with lights in their hands for Down with Disease, which also featured Trey and Mike being raised up and back down a few times before finally rising several feet on hydraulic lifts. Disease was unfinished.

Happy new year.
