Don't call it a comeback!

Yeah that's Right L.L. Cool J, don't call it a comeback!

One of the most influential bands of the last 20 years is back after a few years hiatus. And I have to ask, "Where's the press?" Hmmmmm. Haven't seen any.

If this was Springsteen or Bono, my god, they'd be on 60 minutes or sitting down with Bob Costas just blabbing about it! (For the record I think Springsteen's overrated and the Rolling Stone giving U2 5 stars for their new album? Really. Did I miss something? Smells of a rubber stamping to me.)

Yeah, you guessed it, I'm talking about Phish. Heard of them? The band that will headline, not only one, but 2 nights of Bonnaroo, currently the biggest summer music festival this side of the Atlantic.

The band that I have the 75/95 rule for? Phish at 75% is better than 95% of the bands out there! Still haven't heard of them?

The band that flooded the major highway in Vermont with over 30 miles of traffic just to get to their last weekend "together"? Still not ringing a bell? How about now?

The band that Dave Matthews, Blues Traveler and Widespread Panic need to thank for putting them on the map! still no?

The best jam band since the Grateful Dead? Am I getting warmer Rolling Stone?

Well, they kick off their world domination this weekend. You've officially been put on notice!
