Get the phish mug.A "jam band" that have tripped so much, smoked so much, and gotten wasted so much that they can never remember how their songs go. So they make it up as they go along! C'mon, people! They're not REALLY jamming, they just can't remember how the song went! That's why ever time they play it it's different.
Unwashed Phanatic In Birkies: Oh mannn! I love this Phish song!
Some Dude with Hemorrhoids that Knows The Truth:
How can you tell what song it is? It's different everytime!

Get the phish mug.Plain and simple, Phish sucks. Just a bunch of drugged out hippies that write a bunch of metaphorical, lame ass lyrics that nobody can relate to unless your brother is the Wolfman or if you gotta jibboo. WTF? Of course the "music" sounds good to their fans, but not if they are not on acid!
