Nicasio Feels Lucky To Be Alive - RealGM Wiretap Rockies pitcher Juan Nicasio fractured his neck when he was struck by a line drive on Aug. 5. He knows his injuries could have been much worse and also knows that he wants to get back on the mound. "I'm lucky. The ball hit me right there Womens Allen Iverson Jersey ," he said, pointing to his right temple. "A lot of people who have that injury don't live." Doctors inserted two pins into the cracked C-1 vertebra to help it heal in one piece. A small metal plate was attached to the back of his neck to provide additional stability. "I just want to thank everybody from the bottom of my heart," Nicasio said. "I feel they saved me from being paralyzed or dying by making sure I wouldn't move." 锘? Phish is what music would sound like if there was no music business.

They are extremely creative, talented and fan friendly. While it may sound overtly sentimental, its safe to say that Phish is like four of your friends playing music on stage (and playing it very well).

Thats why in 1998, Rolling Stone said Phish has become the most important band of the Nineties.

Phish is comprised of Trey Anastasio (guitar), Mike Gordon (bass), Jon Fishman (drums) and Page McConnell (keyboards).

They began their career on the campus of the University of Vermont in 1983, and minus an over one year break Womens Alex English Jersey , stayed together until 2004. Phish has recently announced a reunion tour for the summer of 2009.

Phish will play a hand full of dates starting with three sold out shows at the Hampton Coliseum in Hampton, Virginia from March 6th to 8th. And they will continue to play shows all through June.

Rumor has it Phish will join the line up at the Bonnaroo Festival sometime between June 11th and 14th.

Even Phish fans,who go by the name of phans, phriends, phamily, or Phishheads, claim the studio fails to capture the excitement they bring to the stage.

Their superior live performances and their cult like following have garnered them comparisons to the Grateful Dead.

Both bands have legions of dedicated and loyal fans who often tour with the band by following them from city to city and show to show. They were going on tour with the band. Their shows would attract all kinds of people and things to buy and do. It was as if they were traveling circuses or fairs where a small city would be set up at each new show location. Both bands would often times play numerous nights in a row at a given location.

Both bands had liberal policies when it came to fans recording their concerts.

And both bands concentrated on performing live rather than studio recordings and commercial appearances. Attending a live Dead or Phish show was like no other experience.

However, the bands differed in their musical approach. The Grateful Deads sound was centered in folk, rock and blues Authentic Wilson Chandler Jersey , while Phishs music followed a jazz aesthetic.

In this era, where recorded music is nearly worthless, their live shows are well worth the price of a Phish ticket. Not only does one get to see and hear masterful musicians perfecting their craft, they are also treated to a show like no other.

Here are some highlights from past Phish shows:

Late 1990, in an attempt to increase audience participation within their shows, Phish had the crowd verbally react to certain musical cues. For instance, if Anastasio played The Simpsons theme song, the audience would yell, D oh!.

In 1992 Authentic Kenneth Faried Jersey , Phish increased its collaboration with the audience with an experiment called the Big Ball Jam. Each member would throw a large beach ball into the crowd and play a note each time his ball was struck by fans.

Other experiments followed, like The Rotation Jam. In this jam, each member would switch instruments with the guy on his left. For select performances of You Enjoy Myself, Gordon and Anastasio would perform synchronized maneuvers on mini trampolines.

For Halloween, 1993, Phish began a tradition of playing an entire album from another band at a live show. The first album, selected by fans, was the Beatles White Album. Phish has also performed The Who s Quadrophenia, The Velvet Undergrounds Loaded and Pink Floyd s The Dark Side of the Moon.

During a tour in 1995 Authentic Jusuf Nurkic Jersey , Phish challenged their audience to two games of chess. Each show consisted of a pair of moves. Phish and their audience split the two games.

Phishs first two day festival, called The Clifford Ball, was held at a decommissioned Air Force base in Plattsburgh, New York. Between 70,000 and 80,000 people flocked to Phish s own makeshift city. Organizers added an amusement park, restaurants, a post office, playgrounds Authentic JJ Hickson Jersey , arcades, and a ................... theater to the grounds. Phish rode a flatbed truck through the campground and serenaded the audience through the night and early morning.

In 1997, at the festival called the Great Went, Phish and their audience collaborated on a large work of art. At the end of the festival, the mammoth piece of art was burned to the ground.

For the Millennium Celebration, Phish had the largest paid attendance of any concert on the globe. To conclude the festival, Phish played an extended seven and a half hour set that began at midnight and ended at sunrise.

In a move reminiscent of the Beatles final performance, Phish performed seven songs atop the Ed Sullivan Theater during The Late Show with David Letterman.

Creative, funny Authentic Gary Harris Jersey , inventive and downright awesome, Phish plays music the way its supposed to be played and the way its supposed to be heard live.
