Please Her
2003. A year of exploration, phish was back in the deep end of the water. A new sound and a new perspective on jamming. Instead of turning at the drop of a dime, phish focused on creating sections that would erupt into a orgasmic cresencdo. The days of virousity had passed, but the magic lingered like a warm memory on a cold winter day. 2003 also marked the debut of several new tunes, and the emergence of several shelfed tunes. 2003 was quite the illusion, much like the jams that year, we thought phish could take the music anywhere, and prosper for another twenty plus years; however, like the jams phish, faded into ambience and called a quits prior to their mini tour in June 2004.
