That was my first thought upon seeing the setlist.  A lot of my favs up in there.  Set II appears to be no slouch either.

had a great stream all night....

great way to start a run, the jam into simple was good.

That may be the best Golden Age....  i'm not sure, but it's definitely in the top 3 with the Fall '13 versions.  This version has 2 separate peak sections.  Trey just wouldn't let it stop.  Also, early in the jam Page teases "We Can Dance If We Want To" by Men Without Hats.


***edit***   "We Can Dance" tease by Page at 7:30 of Golden Age

Really good Golden Age for sure!  Bodes well for the other nights.

So.... Trey needs to learn what the hell he does in Home during the chorus.  Dude fucked it up both times! 

Also, the studio version of this song > live.  So much.  The fact that Page took the synths out of the chorus, and doesn't do the organ in the bridge... come onnnn mannnnn!  Those were the 2 elements that fucking made this track!  Laaaaame!!!!!

Golden Age was def the highlight for me. Thought Trey was going to abort multiple times... but he kept on raging!

Some nice ambient jamming at the end of this steam as well.

Dig the trippy, 'ween ambience out of Steam.  GA is indeed golden.  The ambient jam out of Light is good too.

No that was 10/29 when I suggested we go Mike side low. Honestly I was in that spot or near the whole time, well except for my infamous Piper meltdown, and nobody said shit to me all night. Me, PG and my boy Drew closed the show out from down there, Shine a Light encore ftw.

Are the LED screens the biggest fail of Phish's career?

Tough call between this and Coventry.
