I think Phish is definitely going in a new direction.  I for one love it! 

If by "new direction" you mean having a 6 minute Heavy Things being longer than Piper and an 8 minute KDF being longer than a 7 minute Ghost, then I hope you die a slow, long, painful death courtesy of 3 wasted wigger hippies forcefully giving you PCP and Viagra injections, tying you to a chair, and then making you listen to sloppy Disco Biscuit shows while being tended-to by an obese woman with severe gingivitis who was fed 2 triple-stacks of molly and told she had free reign to "go to town" on you.

It's quality, not quantity my man.  This is concise phish at it's greatest.  I love that the band is doing in 7 minutes what it used to take them 24 minutes to do.  I know it's an aquired taste like caviar that maybe not all have a refined enough palate to enjoy, but man, Phish was on their A game tonight.   Not a single wasted beat or note.

kudos phish!

Trey's a little late about his effect in that Tweezer.

Regardless of your take on the show; this post demands special mention.

If you usually just skip over what he writes, do yourself a favor and read this one.  It's short and totally worth it.

POTY candidate for sure.

I think he just gave us a new definition for "Spaceship boner'd".

Gumbo has seen the light.

That's how I hope to go, eventually.

Please update thread with hate.  Thanks!

[rowjimmy]

Happy to oblige.


This show is more weaksauce.

Tweezer is cool and was probably awesome to dance to for eleven minutes but they don't really do anything with it aside from the rawk groove. then Trey pops the energy bubbly and the drift into No Quarter which is also cool but not something that I think they need to do on the regular. Carini rounds out the part of this show worth seeking out for a deliberate listen. The jam on the end returns us to the same place that Tweezer had hovered but then Trey drops into Piper (which sucks) and then Trey kicks it over into Twist (also sucks) and then they slam into Ghost (horrible version.)

All i've listened too is the No Quarter, and at first i was like, Shit this is awesome!! But then upon second listen i realized. Trey's tone is too harsh for the song. It needs to be smooth. But either way, will report back more when done listening to the whole show.

I posted hate here last night, not sure what happened to it. Oh, well....

I don't know how anyone can compare this show with 5/28 - it's not even close.  I do agree that it' about quality over quantity, but where is the quality? A 7 1/2 min Ghost? Really?  JUST as it started to get a little bit of momentum - WHAM!!  Thanks Trey  :roll:   I don't need another Carini - pretty quick repeat IMO. A one show gap for Suzy - jeeez.  And to think after 5/28, that I was giving serious consideration to hittin' up GW next week.  Yeah, I'm all set now.  Really dissapionted right now condering the first 2 shows.

The Bethel run was so amazing. Night I and II were awesome. And III was a good wind down but still very very awesome

[fauxpaxfauxreal]

6/1 is a much better show than any of the Bethel shows.
