...Nothing meant more than Phish, the mother of all identity bands (and, as such, the daughter of the Grateful Dead). It suggested a lifestyle, a way to dress, a particular disposition toward certain experimental drugs. In high school, the boys who liked Phish would go around drawing the Phish symbol on library desks, bathroom walls, their hands--wherever they felt the need to mark their territory. Phish was a ready-made identity, offering a whole subculture to anyone who was prepared to shell out for CDs, let their hair grow out and have a good time. Back then I found...
...easy it has been to fool everyone, as they staged their dress rehearsals, gathered their props--the shotguns in their gym bags, the pipe bombs in the closet.

One of the clubs I used to hang out at was called Chickenwing...

Maybe it's a miracle that the global community is working at all. Even so, I'm still going to dress like a sea turtle. But I'm going to continue doing it in the privacy of my own home...
