The Phishing manual

Hailed by the media as the brilliant new heirs to the Grateful Dead's style of improvisational rock, Phish's popularity has snowballed in recent years and the trend shows no signs of letting up. Despite this massive and uniquely devoted following, until now there has been no comprehensive, one-stop source for the stories and information these fans demand - The Phishing Manual satisfies that demand and more. The Manual begins with a lively account of Phish's origins and history, starting with the band's initial meeting at the University of Vermont in 1983 and continuing through to 1996 as their concert sales reach an all-time high. Other chapters contain insights and trivia about Phish compositions - from "AC/DC Bag" "You Enjoy Myself" - as well as information about the band's favorite covers - from "All along the Watchtower" to "Won't You Come Home Bill Bailey." The Manual successfully recreates the unique Phish concert experience - explaining the phenomenon known as "Macaroni and Cheese Dinner" - as well as providing extensive tape concert recommendations and a fantastic library of set lists. For the die-hard Phish-head or the new initiate, for the veteran tape trader or the casual concert-goer, The Phishing Manual is the perfect companion to the Phish experience.
