I just wanted to say one more thing: I also think that when you go to play music, you're there to play music.

For me from a pretty young age up until about 21 years old hallucinogenics had a huge place in my life.

Phish has never had anything to do with any trends at all in America.

I think it's like music for the sake of music, and a lot of the words stem from liking music a lot, wanting to be a good band and having a good sense of humour, and living in a situation where we're free to pretty much do what we want.

I mean people have compared us to like the Grateful Dead and all these like psychedelic sixties bands.

Where were living we have a certain amount of our profit every year its like a percentage 5 or 7% or something like that that we set aside specifically for charity things.

Nirvana was like that- Nirvana was like the only band to come out of that- it was like the same thing, Seattle was like this whole scene and it was like this big scene that was thrust upon America.
