Hampton Countdown: To Aftershow or Not

Are you an aftershow person? I’m usually so beat after seeing Phish that the last thing I want to do is see another concert. Our pal Corky said it best, “seeing a show after Phish is like jerking off after the best sex of your life.” One of the the parts of the upcoming reunion shows I’m most looking forward to is decompressing, listening to SGordo’s recording and shooting the shit about what we’ve just seen with a group of my favorite Phish dorks.

That’s not to say that I don’t understand the allure of aftershows. I had a fuckin’ blast at Amfibian after the first night of SPAC back in ’04. All of my friends went with me and two members of Phish took the stage with Tom Marshall’s band. To each their own. Some folks are too amped up after the show to chill in a hotel room. How about you? Are you the aftershow type?
