TWoL 12: Don’t Let Carini Get Ya
Brahs and Sisbrahs! 4 out of 5 Naked Guys agree, This Week on Lot Phall Tour wrap up is just about as exciting as hugging Trey. It's over, kids. Phish Fall Tour came and went and in it's wake, it left a few balloons and a half eaten container of ganja icing. To recap the three amazing nights at the legendary Madison Square Garden, we're joined by our contest winner Chris! He celebrated his 20th Phish show in style by walking into MSG with his buddy and their free tickets...right past Steve and Laura who has their fingers in the air. We all discuss the scene outside of MSG this year, making comparisons to NYE 2002 and pointing out that non-heads really have no idea what to make of it when Phans invade their sidewalks. Maybe all the business men are just thankful the nitrous tanks came back!
We ponder the question of whether MSG really has a lot. Does a "lot" need to have cars? Or can it just be a bunch of heads standing around waiting for a show to start? The hosts are divided on our opinions, so what do you think?
After the break, we follow the lines going South to Charlottesville. The snow let up just in time for everyone to arrive at JPJ and rage the lot proper. There was a healthy shakedown with some of our favorite vendors, including our good friend Jiggs. He was selling his "A Laser Pointer Doesn't Make You Chris Kuroda" stickers...right across the way from a guy with a laser pointer. You can support Jiggs and his insanely truthy sticker by buying one and slapping it directly on Green Laser Pointer Guy's forehead next time you see him.
After a quick ticket price check on Miami Phish NYE, we actually talk about another band! Wow! Steve and Laura are heading down to check out Further this weekend and are thrilled to see another lot. We're looking for lot reports from those shows and are hoping to make some ticket money with the mobile wine bar. If you've been to a Further show this tour, let us know what you think!
Thanks to Chris for joining us on this episode of This Week on Lot! We're glad to hear that he had a great time at MSG and we hope to hear from him again as he rages more lots in the future.
Be Good!
P.S. Make sure you listen to the very end.
