Still Chasing

By: Osiris Media
  • Summary

  • Some addicts chase the dragon. Others chase the danger. These two addicts chase moments, provided by the band Phish. Stand-up comedian Mike Finoia (Impractical Jokers, Amigos Podcast) and author Mike Shields (Across the Margin) have been feverishly following the Vermont quartet for over half of their lives, and their desire has yet to diminish. Now they look back at a lifetime of adventure, experience, and gratitude for this singular band that has given their fans unlimited moments to chase. Includes never before heard interviews with Ken Kesey, Tom Marshall and other members of the live music community.

  • Prologue—Love & Understanding in Las Vegas
    Jan 15 2020

    Las Vegas. Summer 2019. Our host Mike Finoia is stationed in the steamy Las Vegas heat doing a stand up residency at the Comedy Cellar. Deep in a mental block on how to start this project, a convention of obsessed fans is dropped at his feet (actually the RIO check in desk) and a light goes on in the attic. Fanatics are everywhere, and regardless of the subject, deep down we are all the same.

  • Chapter 1: Obsession—Hook, Line, and Sinker
    Jan 15 2020

    Hosts Mike Finoia & Mike Shields set their sights back in time, reminiscing on their introduction to Phish. The guys look back on their infantile stages of fandom; getting acclimated to the world of improvisational music, their first exposure to the infamous "Lot", the mind-blowing moment of their first show, and the lengths they’d go to surround themselves with the culture they craved.


    Includes interviews with Tom Marshall, David Gans, Rebecca Adams and Andy Bernstein.

  • Chapter 2: Expedition—We Gotta Get On The Road
    Jan 15 2020

    Here’s where the rubber hits the road. The guys discuss setting out on tour, physically following their favorite band with their buddies that signed on for a lifetime of weirdness. We take a tour through the pop up phenomenon of Shakedown Street and how the parking lot went from intimidating to industrious. 


    From sitting in traffic to sleeping at rest stops to getting arrested, the obsession led to moments that will never be forgotten, and the guys share them here. 


    Includes an interview with Scott Marks.
