I think that Phish has been a band, we've all had- I've had a great life growing up and everybody in my band's had a really good life, none of us have got anything to complain about at all.

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.

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.

I think that you really don't have a choice, when you see that things are wrong the only choice you really have is to just do what you can to make it better.

But I do think that we approach music, in of itself, with a religious attitude.

Led Zeppelin was pretty much what made me pick up drum sticks.
