A tale of
Phish
Colorful lights, smells of incense
and the distinct roi k and fusion in//
sounds of flush saturated the sold
out crowd Tuesday night it the
Hilton Ballroom.
The band, on the West (.oast ie <t
a U S tour to promote their tn.-vs
release, Hilt, once again pleased the
tie dse-i lad crowd with their ran
dom story-book lyric,s. hem it hulls
and i ontinuous guitar jams
While the four members played n
lot from the new release the crowd
danced to the familiar sounds of the
lust album, A Picture of S'n tar, and
the first cut, "Junta "
The hand also did a 15-niinute
version ol Talking Hood's "Psycho
killer" and a humorous no-music
version of "Amazing Crac e "
Fans said this diversity is one of
the aspec ts they like best about the
nmo-year-old hand
"IBs the only band I know that c tin
pins forever and play sue h different
stuff," said Jeff Smerek, a University
junior and avid Phish fan "They
play that hoaky country stuff ('Bath
tub Gin’) and then come out and
pla v that evil
sounding punk rift

of 'Twomm'I "

li must l»- .1 state law in Washington
that if you're a young Iwimt coming out r
ot Seattle, you have to rely on feed [
buck and violence in your musn
The SeallIn alternative scene is now \
the "grunge” mainstream scene, and
everybody has jumped on board. Not that
it's all that had. Violence seems to be a hot
commodit\ these days, and on its new- l.P. Pud
din , Bestkissersintheworld does a good ion a crans
ing out five songs that will engender head-poundlng
gyrations from anyone so inclined.
There's nothing new or innovative about
Host kissersin the world's style. We've heard it and fell
it all before — a bunch of longhnirs with violent ten
dencies pounding out old-fashioned, blow-the-roof
off-the-joint rook 'n' roll

They're not the new Jinn Hendrix. Erie Clapton or the
Beatles Hell, they're not even the Damn Yankees
Hut they don't give any pretense that they're trying
to be. They are just trying to play let's-get-rich-quick
music. Which, in a world of pretense anti ostenta
tious idiot acts like Ministry and lane's Addiction,
can actually be refreshing
