Phish hats

One thing that is rarely seen on lot are Phish-themed hats. We have shirts, posters, even underwear and jewelry, but rarely are there hats out there for phans to pick up.  That void has been filled with Bill Olshefski’s line of Phish hats.

The hats in this gallery come in two sizes, Small/Medium and Large/XLarge and sell for $25 each. Contact Bill at pompeiiprints@yahoo.com first to check on quantity and style of hat availability, and using Paypal send money to  wpo82@yahoo.com. The Slave hats are flat-brim style (think Bisco kidz) while all others are baseball caps.

Colors for the hats varies, with Harpua hats in black or tan, Slave hats in olive, black or gray, Ghost in black, and My Friend My Friend hats in maroon or brown. Bill has many more hats planned for the near future, so stay tuned for more designs!

The only hat reference we could think of comes from the rarest of Phish songs. Use your Pharmer’s Almanac or Phish Companion to figure out this song’s title:

“Keep The Swiss Miss Girl was disgusted
And she smacked him right in his face
Then she took his hat
And she stamped on that”

Steve Rogers Miami Print

Steve Rogers continues to create great Phish posters, this time for the upcoming Miami New Years Eve run of shows. These posters are printed digitally on 80 lb stock and measure 11 x 17. A smaller run of 50 prints, each signed and numbered means this poster will go fast and sell out quickly. The concept behind the vulture idea is that the Vulture from Albany is now in Miami waiting, and waiting, and waiting….

Steve gives credit to Marc Averette, a photographer who inspired his rendition of the American Airlines Arena. Steve created a mask over his image of the venue and ‘posterized‘ his image with a dry cut effect, then removed his image and the final design is what you see in the background of the poster.

Mock Show venue change

As you may have heard on the news recently, an investigation by county and state officials revealed that our original location – The EPIC Hotel – had recently installed a water filter powerful enough to remove chlorine from its city-supplied water – a move that unfortunately encouraged unbeknownst bacterial growth. Scientists have discovered an outbreak of a rare pneumonia causing bacteria known as Legionnaire’s Disease has been seemingly linked to the Epic Hotel.

While we believe that the hotel will re-open before Mock Show, our first and foremost concern is the safety and well being of our attendees and exhibitors. We acted immediately to procure a new location to assure the satisfaction of our guests.

Subsequently please note that the Mock Show will now take place at the Hyatt Regency Miami.

Hyatt Regency Miami
400 Southeast 2nd Avenue
Miami, FL 33131

Times and Date will remain the same.

The Mock Show will be held in the Jasmine and Hibiscus ballrooms located on the Terrace Level of the Hyatt Regency Miami hotel.

There is a complimentary tram located in the Hyatt Regency that will get you to the American Airlines Arena, or, you if you want to soak in that beautiful Florida sun, you are still within walking distance of the venue.

We have taken great strides to minimize the inconvience to all Mock Show patrons. If you have any questions or concerns, please email us at info@amockshow.com.

Concert Creations by Jackie Maursky

Jackie Maursky from Queens, NY was going through her ticket stubs drawer one day when she decided to create something that everyone could see, and the end result was similar to what you see below.

Her first foray into organizing her concert stubs and other music memorabilia in a creative way eventually led to concertcreations.net

These wholly unique creations are a great conversation starter and are very affordable when it comes to preserving memories. An 8*10 Frame costs $39.95, with other sizes and custom framing/pricing available at concertcreations.net, where paypal is accepted for payment

Top 10 best lot items on tour this fall!

10. Keep Trey Sober sticker – there have been a few things in poor taste relating to Trey’s sobriety. This is not one of them. It’s a good idea. A group effort is needed in all recovery from addiction. Keep that in mind. IMG_5762 9. Ph1-N1 shirt – Created by John Warner and Jduballstars; a nice nod to the flu that came and went faster than it takes to play the song this shirt is themed after. ph1-n1-front ph1-n1-back 8. Andrew Abis MSG – This poster tells a ton of stories about the band playing MSG. This is GREAT art! Pick it up by emailing Andrew at   prints@onephanstrash.com – $35 with free shipping!

7. Phenster’s pins – unique as hell, and not the rip-offs of the logo that a few people had the cojones to parade around (you know who you are). Noah keeps coming up with hits, and the pins look to be a regular top 10 feature, if these are any indication! phishpins.blogspot.com

6. Albany Lot Shirts – created by two hometown fans for two hometown shows.

albany phish shirt 5. Jiggs’ Ghost shirt – An Instant Classic. Up there with Glide/Tide in the Phish Lot pantheon of shirts. mailgooglecom3367390 4. Steve Rogers Syracuse Poster – Orange and Proud of it! Sick hometown show too! Syracuse Complete 3. God Says Jerry’s Fine Indio Church shirt – yes, we know, its from Indio, but everyone on lot who saw this wanted one. We still want to know where to get one even! If you made it, or know who made it, get us in touch with the creator! IMG950334

2. AJ Masthay Atlas MSG – Sold out the day it went on sale, with an iconic image and Masthay’s 8 color linoleum block print. A highly sought after poster. So when does he get to start making the official posters? MSG_Atlas

1. Bobbleheads – these have been the hottest item throughout Phish land, and equally so, a reported pain to the Phish management. Technically, they arent legit, since they bear the resemblance of the members of the band, but at the same time, they are so amazingly put together and designed.  You cannot deny that, and as much as you want one, you probably cant afford one, since they are going for over $100 on ebay at any given time.

For the record, no, we don’t know where to get them, as we have been looking for the creator and that has been to no avail. Please, don’t ask. This mystery man/woman has chosen to remain unknown. Let’s respect that.
