Just saw this. Be careful out there folks. http://www.boston.com/news/local/maine/articles/2009/11/30/43_phish_fans_charged_at_maine_concert/
ok that sucks and is slightly terrifying it makes me think idk, could forums like this talkn abuot goin to specific shows and having specific drugs have any affect on that or is that just getting too way inside my paranoia? i mean i feel like while the drug cites are awesome it could do more harm in terms of legality than we think... any thoughts? {should this be a new thread? [if its that importabt]}
NO, sites like this need to exist or the myths and lies will be the only thing you kids hear. Hiding never solved anything nor did it ever facilitate change. Just be more cautious when you go to shows where the band has a reputation for certain types of followers. Some bands attract drinkers, some attract violence and some attract psychedelic users. I personaly think the attitude to these shows as being kind of like a flea market for drugs isn't the most intelligent one to have though. I often question the wisdom of posts that say just go to such an such show and you'll pick up a sheet. It is a public forum, so your paranoia isn't without merit, but I wouldn't stress over it. Just be smart and safe. :cheers2:
yeah i mean i agree with what you've said...spreading awareness and smashing rumors is crucial and forums like these may help all that...but for example the thread about the LSD bust in cali and someone said not to worry people are working on it and named a specific city....i just think some shit needs to be said more vaguely. I can see sites helping the movement but also worsening the struggle with the law..i just hope other people realize this and are a bit smarter with their posts...i am a very paranoid person when it comes to all this though, just sayin
Yes, but I take most of the posts where someone is claiming to have all this inside info and are well connected with a large dose of skepticism. I tend to doubt that anybody actually involved with the upper workings in the manufacture and distribution of LSD frequents these forums and really doubt they would post that type of info. In short I think a lot of those type of posts are BS by someone who wants to try to impress. Usually that type of info came from the friend of a friend of a friend of a friend who overheard someone talking on the subway.
fair enough so FURTHUR i decided i got the best seats ever...i've been to the venue a few times and i usually wind up in this section anyway (when its not reserved seating) so i am stoked
Arrests like that happen at just about every show. Phish's venues have been about 7 times larger than Further's will be. In the end, so long as you are not selling drugs in the lot, you're likely to be fine. NEVER allow a cop to search your car. The only way you can get popped is if they have a dog within 15 minutes of where you were pulled over. My boy got pulled leaving this show for a 'loud muffler'. They had a dog and ran it, but the dog was apparently having a bad day. It didn't hit on anything.
Hah, wow. this is a little bit ridiculous... It seems ATL has lots of love for lucy unfortunately that doesn't seem to be congruent with my findings...
well heres a streaming version of their first show this year! http://www.archive.org/details/furthur2009-09-18.dsbd.ekoostikal.fix-101687.102426.flac16 anyone know where to find any other setlists? i don't think all of their shows are listed on archive.org
If anyone hasn't gotten their tickets they are still available on TM I just pulled 4 for the Charlotte Show!
i wonder if it would be a good investment to get extra tickets. i assume they will definitely sell out eventually.
About 10 if the venues hold 3000 or less. They will all sell out. The rest of teh venues are larger, so only the weekend shows will sell out. All NYC shows will also sell out.
