Hi everybody and welcome to this week’s episode of Attendance Bias. I am your host, Brian Weinstein. This week’s guest is Clay Bird, who is the host of the “We Are Everywhere” Phish podcast. As you’ll hear Clay explain, “We Are Everywhere” features Clay and a rotating lineup of guests talking about their Phish experiences, stories, and lives. “We Are Everywhere” and “Attendance Bias” share some of the same DNA, but they are very different shows.
Soon after Clay posted his first “We Are Everywhere” episode, I gave it a listen and enjoyed it very much. I immediately reached out to him to see if he would be down to have us guest on each other’s shows. He was down, and within weeks, I was a guest on episode four and we had an engaging, enlightening, and plain old fun long-form conversation about Phish. It was fun being the guest for once!
When it was time for Clay to come on Attendance Bias, he chose “Chalkdust Torture” from June 3, 2011 at the DTE Energy Music Center in Clarkstown, MI… a venue name that continually gives me fits when I try to say it. I don’t know why! During a year when very few shows and jams seem to stand out in the long run, Clay pulled a diamond in the rough and opened my eyes to this excellent version of Phish’s long-running jam vehicle.
So let’s join Clay to talk about Detroit geography, what this “Down with Disease” has in common with “Waves,” and where to find missing ticket stubs as we discuss Phish’s performance of “Down with Disease” from June 3, 2011 at the DTE Energy Music Center in Clarkston, Michigan.
