They’ve been together since 1983, selling out stadiums and hosting festivals where they’re the only band on the bill, drawing tens of thousands. Last week, they won the fan vote for induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, with 330,000 votes, beating the runner-up, the rock supergroup Bad Company, by 50,000.Yet outside the US, Phish may be best known as the inspiration for Ben & Jerry’s Phish Food flavor.

4 w. ago ‘How did this ever get made?’ Gen Z is falling in love (and hate) with Glee

A decade after the finale, new fans are flocking to Glee, causing its songs to shoot up the charts. The internet’s ablaze with TikTok dance homages, Reddit threads – and tonnes of hate watchersThe year is 2009, and Glee has hit like a cultural earthquake.
