Noun

Phish "phans " compile set lists, take notes on performances and tape-record everything from a section designated for them at each show.

But none were as crazy as this one -- when Phish's tie-dyed "Phans " danced in the aisles, sang along to the music and generally created a scene that recalled the Grateful Dead's glory daze.

It was the type of evening -- an entirely mesmerizing and moving two-set concert filled with superb musicianship and incredible improvisation -- that made the undying devotion of the "phans " seem quite logical.
