OK, after fully re-reading that, allow me to rephrase: That article is a must-read for anyone that, with even a shred of sincerity, considers themself a fan of the phish.

Just read the article. Very interesting, and certainly should be read by all. I love how a "fierce" discussion between two people concerning preferences between such antithetical concepts as innovation and continuity results, after a soundcheck, in an agreement that they were saying the same thing, just from different perspectives. What a testiment to the music and the diversity of thoughts, emotions and beliefs that it causes to ultimately come together.
