Fishbone

They are playing here for Jazzfest on Sunday. I’m tempted, but not sure. Has anyone seen them before?
Friends of mine went 20 years ago and said it was awesome, but not sure how well they would have held up.

Need to know if it’s worth it… (25$) Cheap, I know.

Saw them open for beastie boys in 1987. Great set, I’d go again if I could and I think the price is worth it…

I’ve heard they’re the new greatful dead. Traveling jam band. Now instead of dead heads you got fish heads.

last time I saw them was almost ten years ago, but I must say it was one of the best gigs I ever attended, really.

Go for it. I missed them perform at my nick of the woods due to it being a 21+ venue and at the time I was under 21.

Great live band. Never got into the albums though. High energy.

I have seen Fishbone upwards of 20 times, and they never disappoint. I strongly urge you to check their live show out.

Phew. I was thinking that Fishbone couldn’t have turned into a jam band. But I didn’t make the Phish connection.

Fishbone are fucking outstanding…I’ve been to thousands of concerts and Fishbone was one of the funnest,high energy shows I’ve ever seen…seen them a bunch of times…it’s not the same as it was say 20 years ago but still worth checking out…

Everyone who is a fan of music should see the Fishbone documentary called Everyday Sunshine…don’t even have to be a fan of Fishbone,just a fan of music…funny,sad,inspirational…can’t say enough anout what an incredible unique band they are…an all time fave…

I was actually joking. I thought the “fishhead” referene was a dead give away.

Yeah I was pretty sure you were joking, just putting it out there for the record, not to correct ya or anything. So, they’ve been around a long, long time now. So by now most of their fans are roly-poly fishheads?
