Thanks. I'm just copy/pasting from phish.net, and I could never figure out the number of shows without their help. So I left that one out, as well as the last Silent without The Horse (12/13/99, but I don't know the number of shows).
Set 1 AUD: http://www.sendspace.com/file/datn4h
Thanks for manning the LST. I crashed the mainframe at my hotel and just got the interweb running now. Sick Show.
Sssssssseptember Ssssssssssecond!!!!!!!!
So, 'S' huh? Looks like they may have written this setlist out in advance. No 'flying off the handle' here. I have no doubt that the energy in that place was off the charts as the night progressed and everyone realized what was happening.

Show was dedicated to the passing of a dear friend of one of our paugers. RIP Scottie.
Great show....really hit home for me...caught my first Sparks which I have been chasing for 300 shows, Sweet Virginia was a kick down and Sabotage re-broke my two fractured ribs..sick...couple that with the fact that the show was dedicated to one of my best friends and you have a show for the ages....can't wait to hear it again...
Crazy looking setlist!

All in all a good show. Obviously, saw a bunch of shit I haven't seen in a long while if ever. Stealing Time was great, thought the set would end there, but they kept on going. Felt the Split was better played than the Stash. Met up with Mr. and Mrs. Disco around Seven Below-ish, and rocked out with them the rest of the show. Sand was well played, great getting a "stand alone" Simple. Place went Ape with Sabotage. Looking forward to going back on Sunday night. Nice venue to see a show, wish the stands were a little closer to the stage, the first couple of sections on either side next to the stage were vitually empty due to the poor sightlines.
This is gonna be a hard one to top.
Maybe they'll jam tonight?
Between this show and the UIC run, I'm seriously wishing I had saved up some money and caught the end of this tour...

:roll:
I REALLY did not like this 1st set.. Probably the best Slave ive ever heard and Simple was amazeballs..
Tom Marshall posted this on the green board:
QuoteHey -- so first of all, why would they play Undermind in the middle of the Elements set? Well...they screwed up! Here's how. Fish was trying to signal a song to Trey...Trey heard it but was unwilling to play Undermind since it didn't match the theme of the evening...finally Fish was insistent and Trey buckled under and went into Undermind.
It turned out...Fish was signaling to play Timber! They sound the same drum-wise.
Secondly, the S set. What does it mean? Well, it's nice if people found a meaning for it...because frankly, it was just a funny idea. Trey first mentioned it to me right after the UIC Chicago shows. We have been in touch a lot planning a writing trip later this month. I said it sounded absolutely perfect.
Then right before he flew to Colorado, we talked and he mentioned it again -- but this time he said that sometimes his "planned gags" don't go well, and things are better when they're completely spontaneous -- like the set lists all are these days. He mentioned as an example the "bunt cake" joke -- which seemed funny backstage, but apparently went over like a lead balloon in reality. I missed that so I don't know what show it was.
So I was certain they would NOT do it -- but I made a point to tell Trey that I would be watching the show from home last night, and that if they DID do it, it would be perfect.
Well.......the rest is history.
Holy assballs!
Meh.
This one wasn't really that tight.
Good thing they had a gimmick to roll with!
Yeah, it's too bad "jam" doesn't start with S.

holy wow.
Who cares about the playing anyway. Phish is back. Doing Phish things. Phish sometimes fell flat doing Phish things, but they were always Phish things. Phish is doing Phish things. So shut the fuck up and love your life because Phish is actually back as Phish, the real Phish. Not the Phish playing Phish songs, but Phish doing Phish things by playing Phish songs.
There is a difference.
Now who died?

Pretty solid assessment Gumbo. I really like the fact that they played this set, that they are doing the "Phish things". It means a whole lot more to me. I have so much more fun. If the jamz aren't 1994, I can live with it. They are playing well though, and I love a lot of what I'm hearing. Who wouldn't love some '94 type jams? On the other hand, this is far and away from a lot of the extremely phoned in sets I've heard in 3.0 IMHO.
Dude, i don't give a shit what underwear Trey puts on anymore, because with them having tossed down the shit in UIC night 1, Trey could pick his nose with a broken plastic fork and put it on a platter, record the resonant frequency of said booger, and then reproduce via his Boomerang and I would tip him for having done so, even if my eggs were quite undercooked.
So, the point is: we have our band back.

Listening to set 2 in the car yesterday and, as I'm singing along to Sanity, my 3y/old son announces, "This is my favorite song."

I dont have the energy to the debate the tightness of this show, but let's get one thing straight: it wasn't a gimmick, it was a tribute...

I get that and I can appreciate it.
Aside from that aspect, the show didn't do anything for me.

Fun Sand.
So glad I got that Sweet Virginia. I had been chasing sloth and sanity all summer and finally got both of them! I had a blast during this show I kept saying to my gf the whole time "This S thing is really fucking with me" Very glad they played the stand alone simple instead of our normal 3.0 M>S>W like I am used to hearing. When the second set started off the place exploded! -7>Suzy>Scents was the fucking :rawk:
During this show I loved every minute of it, I have yet to relisten and it may stay that way.
SSSSSSSSSSSS
cant believe they chose CO1 to bust this type of show out. The energy in my group was high but the people around us seemed to be oblivious to what was going on. I still loved this show. Was so stoked that did a letter show though. The Sally is hot stuff! Then the Sand > Simple is some sweet. Soul Shakedown > slave is so awesome, some of my fav :phish:.
This second set was by far my favorite set of the run. Sand, Simple, and Steam were great IMO. Mike was fuckin killin it! :rawk: SPARKS :rawk: Seven Below. Suzy. Sanity. Two stones covers. SSSSSHhhhhitE!
Seven Below was pretty cool; they played the actual song incredibly well. The jam started out cool, and did a few interesting things, but didn't quite grab me as a whole. I guess Albany spoiled Seven Below for me forever, haha.
But Suzy was fucking great, that jam was really good with Trey pushing Page to get schizo-i-er. And Trey's first lead break during the verses featured a real sweet little Treyshred moment.
the beginning of Scents was fucking AWESOME too. I loved how Trey took charge and Fishman led the follow-in after the chord changes. Very cool. Also, no chord fuckups from Trey, at all!!! Even in 03 he would butcher this. Just listen to the big version of 7/30/03; Trey performs the verses like he is Michael J. Fox trying to play Glide.
oh man this Scents jam!!!!!!!!!! YeahHH!!!!!! Chorus reprise -> SOLO!!!!! Fuck Yeah!!!!!!! weeeeeeeeeee
No mention of Marley's Running Away lyrics dropped in Sanity? Awesome.
I dig Suskind Hotel.

It's much improved from the SBIX shitshow, but it's still a far cry from the GRAB versions.
