Phish Merriweather Post Tomorrow Night

Another year has gone by since I’ve seen Phish. I have to say that the show last year at Merriweather was disappointing, but I’m giving them another try hoping they break out some old school stuff. I reviewed the show in this post, “Summer Concert Review”.

Wish me luck!

Warren Haynes is Better with The Allman Brothers

Warren Haynes in my opinion is one of the best out there. I wrote about him earlier and posted a video of him playing with Trey from Phish. So I was really stoked to see Warren Haynes with Gov’t Mule last week. I have been watching him with The Allman Brothers Band [...]
