LYRICS

We’re playing Aces high but you’re wild like me
So we’ll dynamite the gates of heaven
And our orbits touch but they’re just out of reach
So let’s dynamite the gates of heaven

Prodigal son of a bitch
Couldn’t help but love me
I’m a disc written over too many times
now I’ve gone just a little bit fuzzy
I’m grinding,I’m grinding my teeth in my sleep
I’m feeling the stress down into my dreams

And trust me everything I am is yours
Just say the word
All my Russian nesting dolls of sadness
Or so I’ve heard

We keep the fire alive, Through trying times
Through the slow decay and the rapid decline

We’re playing aces high but you’re wild like me
So we’ll dynamite the gates of heaven
And our orbits touch but they’re just out of reach
So we’ll dynamite the gates of heaven

Just keep pulling the string
Watch it as it unwinds
I got a buzz for freedom
Trying to find some peace inside

I’ve taken, I’ve taken all that I can take
Oh, Just one more poem to kill the pain

We keep the fire alive, Through trying times
Through the slow decay and the rapid decline

We’re playing aces high but you’re wild like me
So we’ll dynamite the gates of heaven
And our orbits touch but they’re just out of reach
So we’ll dynamite the gates of heaven
So let’s dynamite the gates of heaven

We're playing Aces High (Aces High)
We're playing Aces High (Aces High)

Oh we dreams to crush, got lives to live
But don’t stress if you forget my love
It’s right where you left it

We’re playing aces high but you’re wild like me
So we’ll dynamite the gates of heaven
And our orbits touch but they’re just out of reach
So we’ll dynamite the gates of heaven
So let’s dynamite the gates of heaven

We keep the fire alive, Through trying times
Through the slow decay and the rapid decline
We're playing Aces High (Aces High)
We're playing Aces High (Aces High)

My First Phish Show in 1994 to Photographing Them in Richmond

1 Share

In 1994, while in NOVA for high school, a friend who had grown up in Vermont introduced me to a band named Phish around the release of their fifth album, Hoist, and I became obsessed. As a classical-metal-progressive rock music fan, I loved it.

My first show was in 1994 at the George Mason Patriot Center. I got a ticket the day of the show. They were not a sellout band just yet. I was able to move seats to sit with my friends.

I caught a few more shows in the 1990s around the DMV venues and got to see a couple more in the 21st century. I pored over the physical CDs with art and photographs of Phish’s A Live One and Hampton Comes Alive so many times when in photo and film school at VCU. I loved the concert and studio photography tradition used on album covers, all inspiring me to develop my drag-shutter expressionistic style.

First filming and photographing high school friends’ bands, then college friends’ bands, with now over two decades in the Richmond music scene, I always dreamt of getting to photograph a Phish show. And this week, for night one at the Allianz Amphitheater in Richmond, Virginia, I was awake, present, and taking pictures.

On show day, while teaching current students about Stanley Kubrick’s photography career, his friendship with Weegee, and the importance of photographers being able to enter and document so many different scenes of human expression, I got a notice to fill out some paperwork to be considered for a photo pass.

I quickly managed protocol, and a few hours later found myself with many camera colleagues in the photo pit for the first 15 minutes or three songs, whichever came first. In our case, we got two songs before we went our separate ways: “Buried Alive” > “Free”.

Knowing my colleagues and other lens people would get many crystal-clear and gorgeous photos of the incredible Phish light rig, with stunning portraits of Page, Mike, Trey, and Jon with their instruments, I did what I do, trying different settings combinations to generate and capture my expressionistic and distinct style of photography.

I still can’t believe it. A night full of amazing songs, many of my old favorites, including the nod to Kubrick’s 2001: A Space Odyssey, the funky version of “Also Sprach Zarathustra” that is featured in Hal Ashby’s Being There.

Joyfully running into other RVA Phish fan friends in the audience, as is sung in their song “Joy”:

We want you to be happy
Don’t live inside the gloom
We want you to be happy
Come step outside your room
We want you to be happy

For a night on the Richmond riverfront, I was able to see a lifetime favorite band and have the chance to take their picture. And I was glad I was able to leave my room doing something that brings me joy, photographing live music in Richmond.

Seed Shanty

3 Shares

Song birds sing a sea shanty aboard a schooner boat loaded to the deck with bags of seed: “Seed, Seed, Seed! All the seed we need!” Captain Robin Cornwallis has seen something through his spyglass which causes him grave concern, even as the singing continues (“On this we are agreed…”) Spyglass view: A pirate ship approaches. At every level of the ship, it is crawling with scurvy, rascally squirrels, each with their eyes aimed at the bird’s ship. “Seed, seed, seed!” the momentarily-oblivious crew of The Feeder continues.

The post Seed Shanty appeared first on The Perry Bible Fellowship.
