For my project I will analyze the story of Gamehenge by Ernest "Trey" Anastasio from the band Phish. The story was written as Trey's senior thesis in college and is a story of a man who suddenly wakes up in this fantasy world called Gamehenge, a play on Stonehenge, full of talking Lizards that are suddenly taken over by an evil man named Wilson. Most of these songs he now incorporates in his repertoire today. The story is provided with musical background as the story is told. The paper is provided with an audio clip of Trey narrating the story while in between breaks, he plays a song relating to the story. He is also playing guitar while he is narrating, simply playing over his already recorded narration. It is very interesting how he provides the musical backdrop added to the storyline. It seems to blend in perfectly. I will analyze this piece of narration in detail for my project and include a sample of the audio/story.
