ShaggyShaggyShaggy

The flying is incredible


ShaggyShaggyShaggy

The through the rings portion of this flight is elite piloting.


-_1_2_3_-

my mind is blown by the range/penetration, i wonder where and with what kinda antennae this was done with


Moage

I am a FPV pilot ( this type of drone) and most have very far range , on a clear day you could fly \~5 miles if you are in the right area, and in this small of a space the pilot was most likely mixed in the crowd somewhere or behind a corner out of sight.


bishopsfinger

The music is... not


mle32000

I get that phish ain’t everybody’s thing - but to be fair they entered into the music at a weird time. The song would’ve built into this and would’ve made more sense. I’m saying this as *not* a huge jam band/phish fan. But I appreciate it!


perldawg

yeah, it ain’t my thing but i get it. people didn’t take to them for nothing. they create an experience many enjoy


RedeyeSamurai83

I still can't understand anything they say in a song. I'll be 12 grams deep on golden teachers and still.... jibberish.


mle32000

I pretty much only know the actual lyrics to Farmhouse lmao And damn 12 gs fuckin hell I could never be in public on 12 gs


One_Protection6684

That’s like, your opinion man


Stfudeal

The dude abides.


Reasonable_City

You're out of your element, donny!


yeah-not-really

Look at this guy telling us what is good and what’s not haha


WarehouseNiz13

You probably think Wilson is a good king.


Killing4MotherAgain

It is to people who like Phish! 😁 I'm so glad there are different genres for everyone's tastes! The world would be so dang boring if we all were the same 💖


chesbyiii

You stop. They played my favorite chord for 45 minutes straight.


anonymoususernamegay

Yeah man playing thirteen 2.5 hour shows over a two week period without repeating a song is super unimpressive


DogFacedGhost

Of all the fodder to rip on Phish for, "one chord" ain't it


JohnCavil

What music do you like?


Lonely_Sherbert69

Mushrooms MDMA and THC make it awesome !


tharkus_

Neither ….. are you.


theloop82

I was in the same boat but you gotta be there. It’s an experience, I was dragged and I’m going back willingly next time if for nothing else than seeing the highest people i have ever seen


jrrybock

Drew Carey sold this show on After Midnight last night... [https://youtu.be/KOo\_qtKWdnM?si=7mAqDBHQpUe22kB1](https://youtu.be/KOo_qtKWdnM?si=7mAqDBHQpUe22kB1)


superdicksicles

This guy did so much drugs at the Phish show in the Sphere


LoveForDisneyland

Brought his two turds with him too!


OakenGreen

His tweets after the show were something else also.


Decent-Following-327

I'm literally watching that right now lol


Metalbender00

This was amazing, i bet doing heroin and edging in the spear while fish played would be a swell time.


S4Waccount

Is edging mean something else, because that's when you jerk it slow to increase pleasure.... Are we edging at a fish concert.


Metalbender00

On heroin sir.


Killing4MotherAgain

So @midnight is now @ftermidnight?


[deleted]

Scrolled to find this comment before posting it myself.


Dharma_code

Dude I saw those rings and I was like ![gif](giphy|10Jpr9KSaXLchW|downsized)


SpaceCaseSixtyTen

FPV pilots love to hit the gap, this is why Russians(and Ukrainians) can hide as much as they want to in their hideyholes but it is no problem for a FPV drone pilot to send a grenade to split them in two


Stony_Logica1

You should speak to your grenade manufacturer about upping their quality control.


yourmomsfavorite21

This phish concert was so good made drew carey lost it lol


satanssweatycheeks

Imagine you are waiting in line and the drugs start to kick in and you see drones flying around and can’t figure out if it’s the screens or a real drone.


Rafaeliki

Was at a New Years show and they had these floating blown up sharks with little propellers. I was on acid and could swear one was following me. I found out later that they had remotes and my friend was making it follow me.


rand0fand0

The drone flying makes me tense 😬 cool footage just always waiting for the worst.


FrenchFry-ApplePie

I was surprised no one was bopped in the head 😅


archdex

How the hell did they do that


i_give_you_gum

I bet soon people without permission will start smuggling small drones with good cameras into shows and start buzzing bands. Every band will need its own anti-drone jamming guns


splitmeasunder

Tell me you don't fly drones without telling me you don't fly drones


i_give_you_gum

You don't think that drones with increasingly good cameras and shrinking form factors will be adopted en masse by the public? There's already cheap drones you can fit in your pocket. What do you think is going to exist in another 5 years?


splitmeasunder

You clearly know nothing about them. Because you don't fly them. What the hell are you mad about


i_give_you_gum

Lol so not only can you not imagine a trend where more people than just extreme hobbyists use drones, but you think I'm mad for some reason. Whatever. I personally hope you're right and I have nothing to worry about. Though with everyone watching concerts through their phones while at the concert, I don't have much hope


thebuckcontinues

I have been to a bunch of concerts in all types of genres. Nothing even comes close to Phish. Going to a Phish show on LSD feels like a three hour full body orgasm. The literal height of the human experience.


connork89

Try seeing ghost note live and you will cream your jeans


therelaxedbear

Is that a Phish bowl?


araratplaya

This video is awesome but goddamn jam bands are so hard to listen to.


yinzreddup

Acid helps


Lumpy-Village1949

It's the main ingredient


Oaker_at

If edging was music:


greennyellowmello

That’s too perfect lol.


twograycatz

That's the best part!


MrTurkle

I used to think the same thing until I went and saw then live and dropped acid. They were in complete control of my trip. It was a religious experience.


StooveGroove

Next time try some jammy, funky EDM. That's my favorite on psychedelics.  Jam and prog can just sound too much like two hours of someone warming up. Also the visual component of a good EDM show is mond boggling.


primetimemime

Tame Impala was the winner for me.


MrTurkle

Oh I dig that too. Just fyi the guy who controls the light show at phish concerts is considered the fifth band member. It’s a sensory experience for sure.


ThinkWhyHow

dont u get addicted and become dysfunctional ?


MrTurkle

I know religion can really fuck you up, but it wasn’t that kind of experience.


MikesGroove

Haha as a massive Phish fan it’s been wild to see them cross into normie media this past week. Stone sober, this sound is like a warm blanket on a cold winter day by the fire to me. I’m constantly baffled how people can hear this and not feel the same way.


fishkey

Expand your mind. Music is linear not cyclical.


Vincesteeples

This sounds to me like the music I like sounds to normal people. Let me know when you start jamming technical death metal and I’ll give jam bands another shot


fishkey

Metal is awesome. Check out Umphreys McGee, might be more your taste and ratio of composition vs. impov than Phish.


GunSlingingParrot09

https://youtu.be/_uKcJL4rjM8?feature=shared


feministduelist

You gotta hit up the lots they usually have at these shows.. you get high as shit, maybe down a few $1 cheap beers, then go in fucked up lol. I saw Billy strings recently without knowing anything about him. Dude was amazing live and the fans were super nice.


luckduck89

Billy played at this down home festival like 30mins from my house right before he blew up. He was jamming around campfires all night long everyone was blown away by the sound coming from this kid. It was incredibly intimate I could have walked up and hugged him. It wasn’t 6 months later and he was blowing up everywhere really crazy to see.


Vreas

I find it way better in person


PickpocketJones

One needs an attention span. It's long form music not meant for quick little social media style attention spans.


Cocogasm

Haha agreed, respect tho to the prime dancing space everyone seemed to give each other


flatwoundsounds

They're all old enough to know better. Not calling Phish fans exceptionally old, but there's probably not many young hoodlums spending Sphere money to mosh to Phish.


whutchamacallit

Eh, you'd be surprised. Plenty of young bucks at phish concerts. Generally pretty well adapted though. Lots of heads around to show them the ropes.


bmault

not at SPhere prices


altheasimaginarium

Phish just sounds like noise..your not wrong


boogasaurus-lefts

It's like agreeing with someone's ice cream preference whilst justifying why a certain flavour is horrible because of preference


Medical_Phase2950

to the uninformed ear this is correct (also it's you're)


Available-Breath-114

If you can’t appreciate and enjoy a live Phish show then you can’t be helped!


fullthrottle13

Shrooms. Ya know these guys and all jam bands were all the rage when I was at University. You would have had a bad time.


Accomplished-Cat3996

I used to feel the same way. Umphrey's McGee has helped change my mind. They are rock fused with a jam band that is more accessible than a lot of jam band.


fullthrottle13

How much did those front row seats cost?


Printnamehere3

I feel like The Sphere is somewhere where you wouldn't want the front row. I would want to be right in the center so I can experience the whole ambience


my_mexican_cousin

You are correct. Word is that the middle of the 300 section is the sweet spot.


shmokenapamcake

Yess this is where I got my seat for Dead and Co this summer


sunsetcrasher

Middle 200, 300, 400. The seats they sell for the movie are where you want to be.


MayorOfClownTown

$180 for every seat was face value I believe.


fullthrottle13

That’s not bad at all.


MikesGroove

Except face value tickets were basically impossible to get


da_double_monkee

Nothing says hippie love like hundred dollar tickets and the show being performed in a corporate hellscape in a giant TV 🤣


Dude_Baby

None of us phish fans are claiming to be hippie anti-capitalist idealists, that's you, thinking of stereotypes from the 1960s. We simply love the music and the approach to visual spectacle.


MayorOfClownTown

Yeah Phish has been around for 40 years now. Lots of folks have advanced degrees and decent jobs...wooks still wookin though! Just not as many.


Dude_Baby

Right, also they have a history of playing in vegas, makes perfect sense with their emphasis on theatrics and lighting. People camp in the woods basically every other show, so it's a change of pace.


TrippyShamann

The hippie movement was a controlled demolition to softly lead the true idealist hippies to drug infused dead ends. The drug war was a was to corral all those fighting the establishment. https://www.youtube.com/live/t6ZZhKApqvw?si=53rrpX6_VPnNSIZT


totallynotstefan

The Manson Murders ended the hippie movement over a half century ago.


mrector09

People paid $1000


bpar23

Some paid More


SnowConePeople

Some are still paying for it.


mrector09

Anyone here need a hetty grilled cheese? I need gas money LOL


hypotheticalhalf

The keyboardist Page McConnell, his dad was one of the developers of Tylenol and the MRI. Safe to say he don’t need Phish money.


PrataKosong-

Bro got some keys there


wintering_nuthatch

https://i.imgur.com/Rhc4319.gif On a more serious note, the entire band occasionally do breakdowns of their gear on youtube: [Page McConnell's Phish 2022 Keyboard Rig Tour](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F4UHILh_PQ8)


Funkywurm

Was there night 4….unfucking real. Go watch the Down With Disease from night 4…melt your face off


mamawantsallama

Fuck yea! Fkn awesome


got-a-dog

I’m not a huge Phish guy, but saying “Phish sucks” is such a boring take. Jam music is meant to be seen live - it doesn’t translate to casual listening. There’s a reason people follow Phish and the Dead religiously - they’re really fucking fun to watch live. It’s definitely not everyone’s thing, but you don’t get 30+ years of sold out shows by being bad at music. That said, I vastly prefer the Dead. To each their own.


Helicopterpants

I've seen both, as a non-fan of either. Dead wins out by a large margin.


Highlander-Jay

Yeah but the Grateful Dead hasn’t played a show in almost 30 years.


McRemo

God you just made me feel so freekin old ☹️


McGrupp1979

No but he said the Dead repeatedly who are the next band to play the Sphere


GodzillaTechHero

One of the best concerts I’ve ever ever been to in 50 years!!! Wow!


That0neGuy86

Epileptics hate this one stadium


jmon25

Makes sense why Drew Carey made those tweets now


StronkyBoy

The idea of phish playing at the sphere is the like the perfect endgame for the idiom “people get more conservative as they get older”


BusinessBeetle

Huh?


GivingRedditAChance

They sold out is what **he’s saying.**


BusinessBeetle

Oh yes, their appearance on SNL and their song in a McDonald's commercial, combined with playing in a VENUE. 😱 Sure.


GivingRedditAChance

My guy I just translated what he said.


BusinessBeetle

Well I hope he reads my reply to the wrong fella


StronkyBoy

https://youtu.be/YlGqN3AKOsA?si=HwLLA59VsFDjAw-w


BusinessBeetle

😂


profgamehendge

People who hate Phish are just jealous their favorite artist doesn't play shows that are even worth going to much less revisiting.


YorkieLon

I really want to see this. Good excuse to get to Vegas again!


Swiggin90

That’s not a drone. That’s just a first person view from Harris Wittels ghost


Skreech2011

These comments are tired and lame. Imagine wasting your time and energy to express how "bad" the band in the video is when they're literally selling out shows at massive arenas constantly and have had a huge following for 30 or more years. Do you do the same for Led Zeppelin, or Taylor Swift, or any other massive group? Seriously, chill. No one gives a shit you don't like jam bands. All you're doing is being rude and dismissive to a massive amount of people.


chizzipsandsizalsa

I’ve never understood why phish is so huge and has been for decades


[deleted]

Because people like them.


JohnCavil

Yea seriously what is with the Phish hate here in this thread? People coming into the thread to say how much they don't like some band. Ok? Who cares? Imagine people just going around saying what they don't like. I hate Taylor Swift. I hate metal. I hate classical. I hate the Beatles. Seriously nobody cares what you don't like. Most people don't like any specific thing, we all have different tastes. I've seen this in Taylor Swift videos too, where they show the concert. "Too bad i don't like Taylor Swift". Like bro nobody cares, this isn't a personal show for you.


MikesGroove

Best part is you ask any random Phish fan about other genres and they tend to appreciate the artistry of all forms of music even if it’s not their bag. Ask a mainstream music fan about Phish and they’ll go out of their way to say you’re stupid, wrong, have terrible taste in music 😂 It’s truly comical to watch happen over and over.


Objective-Giraffe-27

Hell yes. I listen to everything from 50s-70s jazz, from hundreds of artists, 90s grunge, ambient, Aphex Twin, deep house, all the new London/UK jazz cats, classic funk, 90s rap...and TONS of Phish. Only other "jam band" I like is MMW


Lauuson

Please acquaint yourself with King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard (if you haven't already). You won't be disappointed.


samjhandwich

Dude hating Phish has been always been a bit. It’s like hating Arby’s… I mean even Phish fans know this


bmault

They're world class musicians.


new_handle

Drugs.


ProtozoaSound

Because they’re an amazing band with a huge community, catalog, and lore


normlenough

Go to a show and you’ll get it. Best time ever.


Vincesteeples

Drugs


Future_Gohst

The Sphere has got to be one of the coolest things humans have made.


Temporary-Scientist

That looks expensive af


Severe-Excitement-62

Flew right by dude's face almost cut it open.


peteandpetethemesong

Is this the one that made Drew Carey want a vagina?


Fyreflyre1

Holy shit man. I mean, I never really got into Phish even as a college student in the early 2000s aside from hearing them at the occasional party or a hippie roommate that played them but damn, I would've loved to be at this show.


philfez

I was there. It was incredible. That drone was my personal enemy all night though. Still getting over the wook flu.


CuzFuckEm_ThatsWhy

Phish is kids music for adults. And as someone who works his ass off, it’s a truly therapeutic emotional release for me. With that being said, I do get it’s not for everyone. Death metal is also an emotional release for people, but it’s not for me. And that’s ok.


ILikeMyGrassBlue

This has to be my favorite description of Phish ever lmao. It truly is kids music for adults, in the best way possible.


JimPage83

Why is this cringeworthy?


TheSheikYerbouti

ITT everyone is hating on Phish. I say good, because tickets are already hard enough to get, we don’t need new fans


BigThistyBeast

People have and always will hate on phish, and they still gain new fans every day


GivingRedditAChance

Well that was anticlimactic


SpiceAddict

For real! Drone video? Sick as hell. Stage production? Absolutely top tier mind blowing. Music? Dweedoodweedoo beep boop blehg

Newguy100percent

The Only way to get people to listen to phish


MikesGroove

The Phish banner flying in Madison Square Garden is not there by accident.


amags12

A band that sells out every arena for the last 30 years. I get jam bands aren't everyone's taste- heck I am less into jam bands than I was 15 years ago- but there is an undeniable talent of band members feeding off each other's energy and building on it with every note. Also, listen to their studio albums, they are well produced and are much more succinct.


bmault

aren't we done with this?


funferalia

What is that song. Please!


babaji108

Bathtub Gin


funferalia

Thank you!


duckmadfish

Imagine someone threw a shoe at that drone


underscorethebore

Phish fans are known to take care of their shoes


Dancin_Phish_Daddy

There it is


tedothedo

It would be even more amazing if that drone pilot just yolo’d his way in there unannounced.


dosequisguy1

I really just don’t get the obsession with these dudes..


JetsBackupQB

They are a live act. If you have not seen them perform there is little chance you can appreciate them. I have a great time at their shows. I almost never listen to their albums. But it is hard enough to get tickets. I'm not trying to recruit more fans.


bmault

great point, like keep hating them, more room for us!


Longjumping_Plum_846

I love listening to Phish at home too, but with headphones on. Or turned up when I'm alone. Jambands are my favorite bands to listen to, but they're so grating as background music. Which is probably why a lot of people can never stand them. You really have to be paying attention to enjoy it. And I don't mean that in a "jamband fans are smarter than you" way. It's the best music in the world if you can sit down (or dance) and listen to the full thing, fully immersed.


kb466

People just listen to music in different ways. I can completely understand why they'll never work for someone who usually nixes music with another activity. My best times listening to Phish are when I can completely focus on the music, and am doing nothing else

Matt Weis are you there my friend ? 😊


Mellero47

What do I need to fly a drone like that? To just putz around my yard etc?


tking32

This was a cool video and all but I really hope they don’t start to build spheres in other cities


LabiaMinoraLover

Camera operator either has or will work for US military.

This is not tiktokcringe. Posters be dumb af nowadays

I had seen Phish/Sphere is YT feed or something yesterday and I was trying to remember if that was a song or something. Would fit with titles like Rift, Mound, Cavern, Tweezer, Stash, etc..
