Rec.music.phish

The title of this article is incorrect because of technical limitations. The correct title is rec.music.phish.

rec.music.phish (often called simply "RMP") is a Usenet newsgroup originated for the discussion of the band Phish. It was begun on March 3,1992 by net-savvy Phish fans who already had been using the Internet for coordinated discussion about the band. Over the years, conversation has been variably more or less on-topic, although an objective view of RMP's content does see a slow general trend away from discussion of the band Phish and related topics. Whether or not all posts contain Phish-related content, RMP is an active newsgroup: Google Groups' archives show activity of up to 29,000 posts per month at its peak (August 2004), and Microsoft NetScan reports that RMP is generally the most active non-binaries music newsgroup in Usenet.
