snucksally I agree with your comments snucksally, but I have to tell you that I find it categorically hilarious that a person could accuse a band like Phish of having a "lyrically weak" song. Not disagreeing with you per se, just pointing out that Tweezer, Fluffhead, etc. are not exactly written by Edgar Allen Poe or Shakespeare. Really??? Lyrically weak? That's really funny.

It's the zany, nonsensical lyrics of those songs that got me hooked on this dorky band back in junior high. And that's one reason I've had a tough time stomaching some of the more serious songs: it's just not their forte. It actually took me a long time to like some slower and more serious songs like Waste and If I Could. Perhaps someday I will come around on Show of Life as well. But they'd never end the show with the other two.
