# - last "Colonel Forbin's Ascent"
08/07/98
(143 shows) according to ZZYZX's Phish Stats; Trey takes
the time to thank the people who have supported them,
including the crew (the greatest crew in the history of
music) and to talk about the hiatus and how they'll use
it to write songs and recharge (so they can come back and
play another 17 years) after these next 6 shows before
talking about the strange dream he had last night that he
was sitting in the middle of a field on a beautiful day,
when suddenly he saw from the periphary of his vision
people walking towards him... an army of people
surrounding him before sitting down. One of them took an
apple and handed it to him and explained that they wanted
him to eat the apple as a gift, but he realized he had no
teeth... but then a giant tooth grew out of his upper gum.
But you can't eat an apple with one tooth. He began to
get nervous that people would wonder why he wasn't eating
the apple and he had a moment of panic. Luckily, at that
moment, the sun flew closer to the sun than it had ever
been in history, and as a result his first thought was
that the earth would burn up, but instead, the earth
acted in the way that a grape acts... it shrivled and
turned into a raisin version of the earth. The ground
wrinkled and became mountains and the people got crushed
together into a big pile. Only moments before he'd been
panicking, but being crushed together, he realized that
all of his senses became much more vivid in the way that
a raisin is more intense tasting than a grape... Sounds,
emotions, love... And just as the earth was becoming a
much more rich and vivid place, he found himself in this
pile of people. This pile of people became a groping pile
of love and goo and he realized that Gamehendge is a
state of mind and you don't have to get there physically.
He decided then that everyone needed to know how simple
it was to turn yourself into a seething pile of goo, so
he called upon the Famous Mockingbird to spread the word
about this...

(150 shows) according to ZZYZX's Phish Stats; song ended
with Trey setting up a delay loop before he and Mike
moved to the front of the stage and began a bizarre
synchonized duel involving them swinging their guitar and
bass at each other and around themselves while wandering
across the front of the stage and putting strange hats on
Page and Jon; at one point Trey and Mike put both the
guitar and bass down on the stage and kicked/stomped the
stage beside them to produce more feedback; in the end
Trey finally "defeated" Mike before the band
walked off stage
