11/20/11 WALL OF PHIL ANYONE!

[Phil Lesh101]

Phil is the man.. nothing else to it

[The Stag]

thats sick!!!! i wish he did that when we saw him....but his private bass solo he played for us was pretty key also mmmmmmmmmmmmkayyyy

[Phil Lesh101]

Hahaha Yes his "Personal" Bass solo he gave us was... MINT

[Octal]

One for each string, or is he playing a six string there?

[strumminsix]

TFTGR on GD radio on XM had David Gans talking about how Phil switched sides of the stage so he could be much louder without comprimising stage volume.

[Phil Lesh101]

Hhaha^, and no he has used the 6 for a while! and he just stacked his speakers up, nothing fancy!
But I failed to notice The crew put a Stuffed "King Kong" monkey holding a barbie on the side climbing the tower!

Phil's Bass Man

[Rusty the Scoob]

That king kong is awesome!

IIRC those are the same 4 cabs he's been using, just stacked vertically. Must be a tight stage. I'm sure glad I'm not the guy who had to put that 4th cab up on top! 98 lbs each per Eden's website.

[Phil Lesh101]

He also moved to the right side of the stage scoob

[tigerstrat]

reminiscent of his 1979 vertical array:

I think this is cooler. Possibly Phil was having Flashbacks!

[RiverRat]

He also moved to the right side of the stage scoob

That's stage left by the way, left and right are from the perspective of the stage looking out towards the audience. Phil had been stage left for P&F as well using his Meyer custom array for years prior to switching to the Edens.

I love Phil. That old fuck can rock it with the best of em! Everytime I see him, I am just so happy and impressed. Bobby too. I love that Phil is 71 and is still like, "well of course I need this many cabinets...what the fuck? stack em the fuck up if you need to!"

[Phil Lesh101]

Thanks for correcting my point of view error

[ugly rumor]

Actually bass speakers project better if stacked. It would be even better if they were staggered, like Bag Ends, or were in a single line straight up. When placed side by side they can cancel frequencies. Two Meyer's stacked would be awesome.

[Phil Lesh101]

If im not mistaken this seems to be the look phil is going for because he is going with the stack everynight now! With the monkey and the barbie always somewere to be seen!
