A playoff intensity surrounds the infamous Phish lottery, and October only magnifies that tenfold. The criss crossing of phone calls to every possible outlet, friend, friend of friend, parent, uncle, cousins twice removed is often interrupted by scores of texts exclaiming “Boy Man God Shit” and “Its All Hamptoning”. Parents are re-instructed on the dos and don’ts of the process and yes Mom…If we get them I will take my sister. Each opponent brings their cunning and community into the battle and even though the spirit of camaraderie is high…it is truly every hippie for themselves. The Battle for October begins.
On behalf of everyone at Hidden Track I would like to congratulate Phish on their return to touring and congratulate Big Red for getting through what will probably be the most trying period of time in his life. Thanks for the memories. See you in Hampton.
