that said, I really like Billy Breaths.... their best and complete album.... a classic actually. Hoist, Junta, both have some gems, but that's about it in my realm.
I think Trey Anastasio is pretty unlikeable and kinda ruins the vibe of the band in general. A lot of people critic music or a band by how appealing the musicians themselves are to them..... so in that case, that's where the falling off happens for Phish. Also, they're general vibe is upbeat, happy and festive .... this doesn't bode well with the majority of folks who are appealed to the angst and attitude of more moody and aggressive music.... to reflect on their shitty attitudes.

I agree...but, I'm also one of those that can enjoy most things when I'm fucked up, depending on what I'm fucked up on. Certain pharmaceuticals can make me feel so great that it doesn't matter what I'm listening to to begin with, I'll just enjoy it because it's there and I don't have to think about it.
Drugs...they're a killer.
