Wow great detail!

Great book about a band I love. So much incredible detail. Also gives a view of the band from 10,000 feet spanning their 30+ yr career

Amazing if you like Phish

I’m like a relatively late comer to Phish. In my defense, I was a small child during all of the “golden age” of Phish. I started seeing them in 2009. Id been a fan for a few years before. I’ll never forget when Hampton was announced I lost my shit. Saw them at Merriweather that summer. I’ve seen since then a bunch, and just caught three nights at the Sphere with my two dear friends. Which was incredible. And I realized there was still so much I didn’t know. This book is great. My only thing is like… it wraps in 2009. Phish has been on tour for another 15 incredible years. More albums have dropped. Lots has happened. I’d love a new version.

Great book unless you DON'T want all the details.

This was a great book. very informative. I'm not sure I wanted to know ALL the details, but couldn't not listen once started.

Great read and a must for any Phan

this book was fantastic. i have been a massive phan for over 25 years. 99% of the time i can listen to a 30 second clip of a live jam or Mike's/tweezer/Slave etc and tell you the show and date. and this book revealed alot i did not know about the band and history. cool stories, back stories on albums, concerts, studio time and antics. it is a MUST read for any phan.

Spectacular!

Absolutely loved the book. favorite part was to hear the true story of how Trey got busted. Especially from one addict to another I really like how he took hold of the situation and got help and built something out of it.
