08/02 - Red Rocks - Morrison, CO - Post-Show Discussion and Review

[Igbo]

Fuck calling openers:

Kreutzmann sit-in. You heard it here.

Also:

nugsnet Page just came in and asked for the lyrics to "Roses Are Free." I said "How bout Life On Mars?" and he said "That's a taller order."
about 1 hour ago

Someone's got 'an in'.  Good call man.  And this beats the hell out of calling any opener!

Nope. I just put 2+2 together...

Well, I left the livesetlist thread before it all finished...  good looking stuff, but no GD tune; okay, maybe Billy just said "play what you want, I'll find my way" or something like that.
  I had to go read up on it and then of course throw some +k around since it was thrown around after I left.  SF I gave you your 100!  I'm DLing it now from etree. 
Wish I had been there.  Hopefully, the boys are fully loosened up now and can just GET IT ON for another 10+ years and write some new face melters and leave some of the shwag on the cutting room floor.  I only heard a few bits on the stream, some of which was a sick sounding vocal jam out of YEM so that is promising...

Llama opener sometime before this tour ends... come on, Phish!  I would enjoy it if they did a repeat trick of the 6/26/94 show and did a full gamehendge and a full new album set, but I'm not gonna hold my breath for sure... okay, enough ramblings, I'll have to give this show a listen and give my armchair q-back review...  come on boys, set up a tour that includes Texas again!!!!

Does anyone else find it interesting that Billy sat in on 8/2 and not 8/1? Or would that have been too obvious?

[PIE-GUY]

just started in - on GBOTT right now. Won't get through the show before leaving for work, unfortunately.

Just woke up, and burned the second set to cd to listen to on my way to work. Taylorc was the man this weekend!!! the shows have been up by 3:30 most nights. If Taylor has a 'paug account, I'd like to pass him some +k.

I'm thinking Billy just wasn't in town.
He has a gig tonight in Boulder.

I was expecting them to have some kind of nod to Jerry on 8/01 - having Billy K 8/02 is better than a tease or cover.

Had to start on set two.
The Jam out of Boogie On is great.

That Jam is friggin' sweet. I drove to work lisening to it, and was unneeded there today so I came back home to listen to the rest of Set II. Then I'll get around to set I later tonight.

quick review:  sweet show... smooth set 1... set 2 was boogie on!  then it was brought to you by album undermind.

i think thats the only thing that billy knew... still fun though.

[rowjimmy]

Quick & dirty notes...
Really liked the second set from last night's show.
Boogie On went into a great rock jam.
YEM is simply a strong version.
Undermind is pretty cool with Billy.
> Drums: short & simple.
Seven Below is good with some cool jamming
2001 has some cool jamming but it's not stretched out too much
Waves is nice.
Zero rocks. hate on haters.
At the end of Zero, they did introduce Billy Kreutzmann, btw.

Encore is made better than "eh" with a good version of Slave.

Am I the only one that digs Undermind?

Am I the only one that digs Undermind?
