This was a great interview! I feel like Tom's journey is almost identical to mine. I got into Phish my freshman year, which was in 94 and saw them for the first time in the fall of 95 in Madison and I was HOOKED. Saw as many shows as I could until the hiatus. I was at the 02 show at MSG and saw them throughout 03 and 04. Once the breakup happened, I kind of lost my interest in Phish and got into other music. I got back into them when they came back, but then started having kids and once again, fell out with them for a few years. Starting in 2015, I started to really get back into them and started listening to phishtracks.com and going to shows again. Now, I'm hooked again and am so excited for the years to come....
