9/3/22 @ Dick's w/Jordan from Venue Llama

Send us Fan MailHi everybody and welcome to this week’s episode of Attendance Bias. I am your host, Brian Weinstein. I think that all Phish fans, or fans of live music in general, would agree that the venue in which you see a show is inextricably linked to your experience at that show. It’s almost impossible, at least for me, to separate the setting from the experience. We go deep into that idea with today’s guest, Jordan, the founder and owner of the VenueLlama website as well as Fire on the Mountain Chicken Wings. Today, Jordan chose a segment from one of his favorite shows that he thinks expresses pretty much everything a Phish show can be: the second half of September 3, 2022 at Dick’s: the portion we discuss includes The Moma Dance, No Quarter, 2001, and Split Open and Melt. Dick’s may be the most-represented venues on this podcast and I’m thrilled that Jordan chose this section and this show, because it’s another gem to explore. A chicken wings restaurant speaks for itself, but a theme that runs throughout our conversation is our opinions, references, and general romanticizing of various concert venues for live music both domestic and international. Of course, a venue can provide the ultimate Attendance Bias, and I think Jordan and I did a good job investigating that aspect of the concert going experience, as well as how he hopes that VenueLlama can make the experience the best it can be.So let’s join Jordan to talk about chicken wings, Spanish architecture, and Freetown Christiana as we discuss the last segment of September 3, 2022 at Dick’s.Support the show
