When It Comes to The Phish, Music Censorship Is Not Enough In Alpharetta, Georgia, a torrential thunderstorm boils overhead as a rock band takes to an open air stage. Is the concert cancelled for the safety of all those present? No, a simple act of God is not enough to stop those in pursuit of profit and the profane. Schools in Bethel, New York are forced to close when a fanatical cult rolls into town. Concerned families know to protect their children first. Elsewhere, caravans of hippies in search of marijuana kicks and sexual debauchery push local police forces to the breaking point. It seems like only yesterday that parental organizations rose up to protest the explicit lyrics of performers like Frank Zappa and Quiet Riot. For The Phish, the graphic content of their songs is certainly worthy of regulatory attention. More than any other group today, The Phish makes an active effort to skirt federal censorship laws by going out in the field to recruit young people into their disturbing lifestyle.

TRYO Cabaret Sauvage [Concert] News - David Welker for Phish's 30th Anniversary Tour David Welker created a psychedelic version of Reading, Pennsylvania, for a stop on Phish's 30th anniversary tour. "Reading's landmark Pagoda is on the right, and there's a reference to the Reading Railroad of past and how it's a river town situated among the hills," explained the artist. "I included different characters, possibly from Phishlore: Rutherford as a young lad crossing the bridge with his skateboard under one arm (instead of jumping in and drowning as he's destined to); townspeople with a lasso around an octopus who wants to return to the river; an alligator dancing with a banjo player in the street; and some strange, bulbous creatures fishing with their extendable tongues." He conceived the design over the course of a month and executed the poster in two weeks. Welker also made a 4.25-by-6-inch, three-color screen print for Phish's newly released box set recorded live on December 7, 1995 in Niagara Falls.

The twenty best versions of Phish classics Phish just finished a stunning run of shows on the East Coast last week in which the band debuted new material. While the new tunes will no doubt inspire much debate, the band's already sprawling archive of performances provides endless fodder for discussions of which versions are the best. Admittedly, there are probably as many amazing renditions as there are individual opinions and preferences, based on everything from longest renditions to most exploratory. And obviously, there are multiple online communities that have spent years dedicated to haggling over this very thing. See also: Phish's twenty most interesting covers 20. 19. 18. 17. 16.
