PHISH - Commerce City, CO - September 3rd, 2011

Phish - Dicks Sporting Goods Park- Commerce City, CO 9/3/11

Well if you know who Phish is, you know they certainly don't need any PR as they have been around for decades and sell out almost every show. And when I say sell out, they aren't selling out 3 or 4,000 person venues. They sell out massive 20,000 person venues. Going to a Phish concert is really something that every person needs to experience at one point in time in their life. There is so much positive energy at a Phish show and you can't not be affected by the overall good mood that is being sent out throughout everyone in attendance. Besides the fact that Phish "phans" are thoroughly happy to be there, the guys of Phish put on an excellent show and do an amazing job at pleasing their fans each and every night. Phish fans are really one of a kind, and are so loyal to the band as well. Phish played in Commerce City, Colorado three nights in a row (for 4 hours each night!), and on the first night every single song they played started with an "S", which I thought was pretty cool and interesting. I attended the second night, a Saturday, and they ended their 3-day run on Sunday, September 4th. Check out two of the videos I took from Phish below the picture - remember to pause my music playlist!

At every single Phish show, there is what's called "Shakedown Street" where Phish fans set up all different kinds of food and merchandise to sell. My good friends Anna and Brittany who are huge Phish fans, have many posters from this guy named Tripp who makes really amazing Phish concert posters for every single show. These posters have such a unique look to them and you definitely know they are one of Tripp's when you see them. Check out the one he made for this 3-day Colorado run and the one he made for the first Phish show I went to last July. He's an awesome artist!

And now I wish I was telling you that I was going to see Bassnectar this Wednesday in Albuquerque, NM since Kevin and I DID have tickets for the show, but being graduated from college and in the real world now, it is just not financially possible or practical. :-( Fortunately Sound Tribe Sector 9 is this coming weekend, which is going to be awesome since the show I'm going to is at Red Rocks! (STS9 is playing 3 nights in Colorado, one show at The Ogden Theatre and two at Red Rocks, WITH Snoop Dogg)!

Talk to you soon!
