that was excellent. can't wait to re listen to that melt.

Killer show! Had some amazing parts. There is some part of Fluffhead that is super sick. Just played the crosseyed twist.

Tela tease before Curtain?

Four shows of mixed results (ymmv) and now we've made it.
Excellent Phish concert.

PIE-GUY · July 23, 2018, 10:50:01 AM

That was a great phish show. No doubt. No low points at all, imo. They were listening. Each member had passages in the second set jams that I'd put amongst their most creative... and a lot of that has to do with Trey sitting back and letting them shine.

Cannot wait to relisten. This one may be on reapeat today.

Jumped in with set two and the C&P > Twist > Waves > Miss You is a terrific piece of work.

It is so satisfying to have contributed to our lexicon through my stupidity.

VA $l!m · July 23, 2018, 12:28:58 PM

Sick list . Would like to hear.

cactusfan · July 23, 2018, 01:20:52 PM

Only a couple of minutes into C&P--and noting that this must be the slowest version they've ever played.
Not that that's a bad thing...so far it sounds great...

mistercharlie · July 23, 2018, 05:32:27 PM

I listened to this show at work and thoroughly enjoyed it. I will have to revisit the second set once I can do some critical listening to fully appreciate it.

susep · July 23, 2018, 08:31:25 PM

Love the jams out of Crosseyed and Twist. Shades of BD. Finally a half decent Melt. The 3.5 minute dark ambient jam is superb. Paying homage to the 07/22/2003 juggernaut. Yin/yang set 2.

Caravan2001 · July 23, 2018, 10:01:24 PM

Wombat is so spicy. Best version ever?

Hicks · July 23, 2018, 10:28:10 PM

Great show, definitely the best show of the 3 overall, although I think Chalkdust and Golden Age were probably the two best jams of the weekend.

Had a solid paug crew with mr. and mrs. wtu, mr. and mrs. birdman and mr. and mrs. JP and mr. and mr. Hicks and of course it was awesome to see everyone.

Also, got me my first Tela, aw yeah.

Had a great time, went pretty big with emay on Saturday night so I was pretty spent by the end of this show. Still enjoyed it top to bottom with so many old school heavy hitters like Curtain With, Reba, Fluffhead, SOAM, they were all played well and definitely one of the better Splits of 3.0. Only regret was not getting another beer during Miss You.

Apparently we camped next to one of the guys from Nice Nice who are fairly well known Portland band that put out an album on Warp a few years ago. Ironically only found that out after we left though.

Except for the appearance of the song who shall remain nameless, all in all it was a pretty perfect weekend.

Hopefully we can all do it again soon.

That was everything I want in a Hicks review! Jealous of the West/East paug crossover event. That's a helluva a crew.
