Heartbreak by Tony Shull It s a show nearly everyone in Burlington has seen, though not heard: Phish Concert, a mural on the North Street side of Nunyuns Bakery & Café, epitomizes a long, strange trip. Motley pilgrims walk, crawl or ride a chicken on a magenta-hued road toward a distant stage. One of the phans is a creature whose backside is a set of stairs. A smiley-faced clock carrying a briefcase walks in the opposite direction. A huge, deific eye hovers in the sky. The wondrous landscape includes a rocket ship, a waterfall, a sky-bound ladder supported by nothing, a pair of snowmen, Santa with a red-and-white-striped (north?) pole, and a deep gulch whose occupants seem unfazed to be stuck there. In the lower right corner, a facsimile of Edvard Munch s screamer looks very fazed indeed.

He mentioned Vince had the idea for The Undertaker character for awhile and just needed a person to fill that role.
“That’s how he introduced the character to me,” Taker said. “He called me up, and I had no clue what it was. It wasn’t singing in the shower guy, it wasn’t egg man. Flew me up to Connecticut the next day, showed me the story boards and the original character is based on an old Western Undertaker.
