They’re gonna end up learning at least one song backwards. I guarantee it. Don’t ever doubt them when they say they’re gonna do something 😂 it’s awesome to see them having fun together. It’s one of the things I love most about them is that even after almost 40 years they still have as much fun as couple of goofy college guys
I've always loved what a fun "take making music seriously but don't take ourselves seriously" vibe Phish has. They're so self aware but not self serious, and as someone who likes everything from Throbbing Gristle to MF DOOM to bluegrass to Slayer to Fela Kuti to random chillwave/vaporwave mixes I love how pure of music fans they are.
Yeah, one of my favorite things about Phish is how much of aficionados they are, above all else. They deeply love a wiiide variety of music, and reflect it in their work. How many shows can you go to and have a chance of seeing rock, bluegrass, barbershop, thrash, gospel, atonal noise, jazz standards, klezmir, or extended spoken word performance?
My last show (and first in a decade) was MSG this past April. Such a beautiful and mind bending experience. No history of music is complete without a deep dive into the music Phish has created
I bought Junta on cassette back in the late 90's and discovered due to a manufacturing defect the whole album played backwards. I wound up keeping it as something to play and make my friends trip out.
Seriously they better be playing a week-long festival for their Golden Jubilee in 2033. I don't care if their stage crew has to roll them out in hospital beds with their ventilators, I want to see how slow they can play Maze in 11 years dang nabbit.
Fishman can't play much longer. Body breaks down. Can't move the arms around like that after awhile. He will have to minimize his kit and restrict his motion.
Wow, I'm surprised Trey didnt recognize Free, backwards! I recognizrd it immediately. Then again, its one of my favorite songs of theirs and I listen to it often.
I think he means in his life- not in the life of the band. (Not exactly more cheerful, but more tongue in cheek, and not intended to signal a break-up.
Aw man I wish they’d done this before I saw them last week! It would’ve been such a trip to hear them do a song backwards and I guarantee they will now
I wish this was an hour long. Two of my heroes! I was able to recognize Free and DWD, the others were a bit harder. Maybe YEM I would've gotten with another few seconds - the big "WAHHHH.... Boy!" was kind of recognizable.
Having just discovered this video, I think the band should consider the challenge of playing a song in reverse. I recently came upon a performance by TMBG in which they had done that very thing! They played the song backwards at the end of the first set and then played a recording of it in reverse when they returned to prove that they had pulled it off.
Can we discuss how that segment of YEM backwards sounds like Morty from Rick & Morty saying "HELL?" followed by a bloodcurdling demonic scream? Incredible.
My guys :) Nice to see their dynamic offstage some. I thought YEM was Maze. Lotsa Maze talk these days...as long as they don't A) slow Bowie and B) don't slow a reversed tune Ill be grateful. SXM when they go backwards (dtnl) at Dick's ill be thinking of you and possibly cursing you. This was sweet though, such lovely guys.
He's not even playing the game, he's just gleaning inspiration and ideas for NYE Gag '23. And can't get over how much better everything sounds in reverse 😂
I would absolutely buy a best of HsihP., if it was a box set with them reacting to not just album versions, but the best ot he best or everything from s1984 to now. Like what do they think now of "In a Hole", one of my favorites, just because of how ridiculous it was, and "Dog Log", and maybe pre-95 Harry Hood. You'd know it from the beginning, but I loved the ending back in the 90s.
it's crazy to me that it's been 13 years since the Hampton shows. And thinking about the 40th coming up kind of scares me, just realizing that they can't play forever and that we're all so lucky that Trey got clean/sober.
4:01 I can' wait! Be a great Holloween Schtick. (I was at the Agora Ballroom, MSG NYE '95, Big Cypress, and countless others too numerus to mention, if I may brag . . .
I got 1 & 3 with no problem and trey was stumped….I think it’s the pressure of being on camera & its f’n with him, the deer in the headlights thing….he got the last one cuz he was maybe more comfortable with the game….I missed d with d, didn’t know no. 4, and I would’ve gotten 5 , i just needed a few seconds more, not that it matters how I did, lol, im just explaining, in a long-winded way, why I think trey was stumped on two really easy ones.

@@arcaears for sure. They're legitimately one of the most impressive modern bands from a purely music POV alone.
My last show (and first in a decade) was MSG this past April. Such a beautiful and mind bending experience. No history of music is complete without a deep dive into the music Phish has created
That's because they had the tutelage of Colonel Bruce Hampton
throbbing gristle!!! And let’s not forget the Durutti Column ! I wear my Happy Monday’s tee shirt (with symbol image of Dancing Bez) to Phish shows

wild
That cassette is probably worth a ton right now!
Ha! Wound up. I see what u did there.
Do you still have it?
Only a few more years? Don’t say stuff like that Trey!
Seriously they better be playing a week-long festival for their Golden Jubilee in 2033. I don't care if their stage crew has to roll them out in hospital beds with their ventilators, I want to see how slow they can play Maze in 11 years dang nabbit.

Hopefully everyone recognizes my sarcasm. I realize they won't play forever!
A few meaning 20
I will finally see Phish live this summer. I can't wait!!
Congratulations! You are in for a great time.
get ready, you're about to open pandora's shitbox...
I just saw them for the first time all four nights at Madison Square Garden totally worth it.
how was it dawg :)
Wow, I'm surprised Trey didnt recognize Free, backwards! I recognizrd it immediately. Then again, its one of my favorite songs of theirs and I listen to it often.
Excited for night 2 at The Mann! Last night was awesome and thank you for making my 130th show a blast as always
What did Trey just say?! A few years left?! Don’t do that!
I think he means in his life- not in the life of the band. (Not exactly more cheerful, but more tongue in cheek, and not intended to signal a break-up.
i was thinking the same thing 😭😭😭
@@tabdelno8678 My pessimistic side hope so
I love mike so much it hurts. We need more of this guy lol.

Whoever gets Phish songs in reverse night this tour is in for a treat!!!

I'm thinking a reverse vacuum solo would probably blow but going out to a movie and seeing a dinner sounds like it would be a cheaper date.
Fee would be found, safe amd alive, with his volleyball friend Spaulding.
Hahahahahahah! “Beyoncé wants to know me” 🏆😌❤️ I really dig the Allison Krause story too! 🔥
This brought tears of laughter to my soul. More please.
They will definitely write and perform a Palindrome song after this experience
the weird disonant bit in Divided Sky is apparently written as a palindrome.
Missed opportunity for Backwards Down the Number Line
Or "Embarrassed with failure, I try to reverse the course that my tread had already traversed"
The fact that I got all four right and they didn’t, terrifies me..
Can we discuss how that segment of YEM backwards sounds like Morty from Rick & Morty saying "HELL?" followed by a bloodcurdling demonic scream? Incredible.
Seriously the best musical partnership ever, in my world anyway...
That was great. Such nice guys.
I got DWD and YEM right…and also, 20 more years Phish!!
Got them all expect YEM, which was probably the easiest one !!
Have to love the phish “stories”
My guys :) Nice to see their dynamic offstage some. I thought YEM was Maze. Lotsa Maze talk these days...as long as they don't A) slow Bowie and B) don't slow a reversed tune Ill be grateful.

When it played the build up to "BOY!" it was unmistakable.
He's not even playing the game, he's just gleaning inspiration and ideas for NYE Gag '23. And can't get over how much better everything sounds in reverse 😂
i love you trey! i love you mike! this was fun ❤️
the next halloween album is shaping up nicely.
This is awesome! I got Harry & YEM right. I thought was Everything's right was Blaze on! Lol Backwards music is a good idea! Hmm Lol

More of this please!
I can’t believe I knew Harry Hood and they didn’t lol. I haven’t listened to these guys in over 20yrs.
Phish about to channel Dopapod 😂
Love those two guys. Mike still reppin’ VT properly. Essex again next year gentlemen...40th anny, just do the same ticket drop as you did in 2011. ✌️

I think Free backwards will be great this summer
They should start their next tour at the final venue and play the tour backwards and end at the starting venue.
Mike -"We should do a best of backwards"
I got them all but everything’s right.
Free sounds like R.E.M. backwards. Nice!
Beyonce Yonce... Can't wait!
I can’t even guess one of their songs going forward
I got 1 & 3 with no problem and trey was stumped….I think it’s the pressure of being on camera & its f’n with him, the deer in the headlights thing….he got the last one cuz he was maybe more comfortable with the game….I missed d with d, didn’t know no. 4, and I would’ve gotten 5 , i just needed a few seconds more, not that it matters how I did, lol, im just explaining, in a long-winded way, why I think trey was stumped on two really easy ones.
This was fun!
The Disco Biscuits play their songs backwards all the time. B4L
they debuted slow maze this year, what's next? backwards limb by limb?
"...backward is not the recommended direction of playback."
3:37 HELL *NAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAW*
They should have played First Tube. It's a musical palindrome, and one of the bands best covers, originally by The Mustangs.
Alison Krause voice of an angel...
I thought YEM was FOAM
Just keeps getting harder...
Beyonce wants to know yahtzee
love the japanese game show vibe
Reverse any song just leave "Maze" alone. 🙏🏼
Slow maze in reverse!!!
Only a few more years?! Say it ain’t so
I love this!
Has they might be Giants ever show? They literally do one of their songs backwards live.
Free backwards is Zero 🤯
I did ok! I got Yem, Free, and DWD.
I want Halloween at the Sphere next year
Wow that was a fun video! I got all of them after 1-3 listens except DwD somehow. Free does sound badass backwards they really should learn that lmao
LEGENDS!
damn that was entertaining.
Backwards down the number line
Huh? (same backwards and forwards)
Delightful.
Come to Australia, please.
the first song was so easy !
"we've only got a few years left"
:{
We only got a few years left what are you talking about Trey?
Free backwards!!
My only complaint is that Alison Krauss is from Illinois she doesn’t really have a southern accent lmao
Still a hilarious story though
Forward down the Numberline played backwards opener. Slow.
Should’ve played Backwards Down the Number Line backwards.
I adore alison krauss i have such a crush on her dont tell the wife her voice is butter i can listen to "Forget About It" on repeat
Sanity never came my way...
@3:03 release the drool trey
Dwd, free, yem... 3-2.
They were great at Deer Creek the other days at the 3 day show.
I made it to the Saturday show!!
@@Tumblenugget_ Saturday was probably the best if the 3 nights. Friday was pretty damn good too and Sunday had a bad ass sand>sigma oasis>sand
Ha! Loved it!!!
I listened to this video backwards and it was Fishman and Page telling camping stories....whats the deal???
I got Harry Hood off the rip but somehow didn’t get YEM 😭
Give us a surprise random second set Dead Set
I got Free and YEM right.
But CanYouPhish?
PHISH
D000dz! There's your Halloween cover album: _Rift_ in Reverse :) I can't wait!
Gamehendge in reverse. They haven't played it in 28 years, they'd definitely do something like that.
Wait I got harry hood after 1 month of listening to phish and they didn’t?
❤️🙏🏼😎
Free was easy 🙃
Shaggy dog 🐕 ❤️
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
These guys are the best!!
Lol it was so obviously hood wtf
Slow reverse maze
Shouldn’t this channel be MXSuiris?
Hilarious!
I am better than the band at this.
