Show Notes

My guest on todays mini-episode of Attendance Bias is the founder and creator of Tour Stories, Lizzie Morelli.  Tour Stories is a website that provides reviews, features, and interviews to share "the stuff fans rarely get to know about."

For today's episode, Lizzie chose to discuss Phish's performance of "Makisupa Policeman" from 5/28/11. This was the second of three shows from the band's first, and only, visit to the upstate New York outdoor venue. While the shows are generally regarded as "average great" 2011 Phish, it is the memories of the venue and the vibe of the flawless weekend that sticks with most fans.

Lizzie chose this version of "Makisupa" because of all highlights that weekend, the comic relief and weird audio effects during the song followed her throughout the weekend. Hear her tell all about it, explain Tour Stories, and a breakdown of  this hilarious section of a dramatic three night run in today's mini-episode.
