Karen T. Chomper with Mike Finoia

Jay is in disbelief that the great D'Angelo has passed on. | Mike Finoia returns to enlighten the gang about all the characters one encounters at a Phish show. A "wook" is a negative term for a hippie. A "chomper" is someone who talks during the show. There are also twirlers and hippie-crites in the mushroom forest. Mike raged out on a couple of chompers who dared to have a long chat during the happiest music on earth. During the same show, a stranger mentioned to Mike that he knew his therapist. This really sent Finoia into a tizzy.
