Very weird show with about zero jamming. Still would have been fun...

Is it just me, or does that look like the same wook that's on the fake cover to Party Time.

I walked out at zero.  That was one on of the worst phish shows I have seen in a long time.  Completely phoned in effort minus the timber.  The storm was insane and did make for a very unique experience.  I did set one with wtu and emay.  Set two i was alone.  Besides the mound restart i thought set two was a flaming pile of fail.

Trey did come out for the encore and say, "you're too kind. Waaaaay too kind.". I think he knew it wasn't great.

I think this is one 3.0 show where being there probably would have made me enjoy it less. Still seemed like a snoozer over the stream, but being in the rain would have made it much worse I would guess. Jim, Timber, Suzy, and the last few songs were pretty good, but everything else was

Trey ripcording Tweezer was the biggest letdown I've had from Phish in 3.0
