Phish's second major-label release, A Picture of Nectar is in many ways their best and most accomplished album. Expanding on the musical explorations that dominated Lawn Boy, Nectar incorporates a remarkable mixture of styles, from country, jazz, and calypso to straight-up ock & roll. Lyrically, the band's trademark goofiness is intact, but the playing is more muscular and Trey Anastasio's arrangements have increased intensity and focus. In fact, it's a surprisingly tight record for a band that built its reputation on endless concert jams, although "Guelah Papyrus" and "Tweezer" should satisfy those who enjoy that facet of the band's personality. The album also boasts the classic "Chalk Dust Torture" and most of Phish's finest moments, which are hard to resist for even the most apprehensive listeners.
So, I don't hate math tests as much as I thought I did...I just pwnt one. w00t. Anyway, I have just acquired some new music, Phish, to be exact. I'm really a big fan, and I didn't think that I would be, but I like the experimental, spontaneous air about it. Really, invigorating and relaxing at the same time. I like it.-prog

Waiting to reap the west coast of its good weat...

While Phisheads recuperate from the band's reunion run in Hampton, thought I'd share a little AP story that just came my way. Over the course of the 3 night Hampton run that brought some 75,000 fans, some ticketless, to the mothership, the police estimated that $1.2 million in drugs were confiscated. Drug trade doesn't seem to be experiencing much of a recession, now does it?Of the $1.2 mil, ...
