They sure fucking do. As soon as they announced it it went to Marriott to try getting a room with my employee discount and my discounted rate was $200 a night. Then I went and saw the ticket prices... :frustrated:
I was thinking about hitting up Dayton (as it's only 2 hours from Indy, instead of the 3+ to Chi) but fuck that's a lot! Dropping nearly a grand for two nights of a non-fest/non-destination show is a bit much.

Well that was quite the emotional rollercoaster.
It's 2023 Phish, if you don't care where you sit there's no need to pay face, just wait for the prices to drop.
Damn, I can't do any of these.
Also, these ticket prices.... double damn.
I'm hoping these new prices are due to '40th anniversary' hype and not the new norm for ticket prices.
It's fucked up - the "prices" are all the same. $105 for floors, $95 and down for seats. But the fees vary like crazy. Chicago fees are a full 20% on top of the price. It is beyond time to break up LiveNation/TM.
ETA: Still, I'm in for Nashville. Saturday night will be my 200th show!
Got a hotel for Chicago but yeah ticket prices are not lookin good if I can find some cheap ones close to the show I'll pull the trigger.
Seems likely since there's tickets for like 40$ to a lot of the MSG shows on StubHub right now so I would maybe wait. Prices seem to drop quite a bit now closer to show time.
Drop the December dates you cowards!

F'real
My bet is that they won't drop until after MSG.
That would be 6 different announced "tours" in one year. This is getting outta hand!

fucking Chicago. there is a NASCAR race in the streets this weekend, but ticket prices were completely fucked. taxes added like $200 to ticket prices. :o
you'd think with all these taxes we would have great schools and half the city wouldn't be falling apart.
It all started when Dave Matthews dumped his poop in the river
You know what makes me happy? Knowing that the next time Phish plays, I will be there!!! Less than one month away!!
Yes!!
Damn. That sure is a great feeling.
Damn, listening to last night. :phish: :beers:
I went into last nights set blind this morning. I'll usually peak at the setlist first, but decided to just coffee n' wake n' bake n' go! Great show! That Melt is something else and the Cities -> SLlama is pure butter.
Last night's show is absolutely top shelf.
Last night is decent too. The Golden Age is fantastic and Cinnamon Girl is decent. Saturday night was the show!
Also, can't believe how cheap tickets are for Dayton and Chicago. Guessing Dayton will be $25 day of the shows and Chicago will be $50 or less for the 300s. Love to see it.
Sunday started a bit jukebox-y butt good songs. From Ghost on out it leveled up substantially.
Run was freaking great. Undersold bigger arenas are better than oversold small ones... at least as far as convenience. No lines. Go in a little early and get a good spot on the floor with no hassle and very little crowding at any point in the night.
Sound was great on the floor. No idea how is sounded elsewhere.
Shows were outstanding. Some of the new tunes were meh, but they made up for them 100% with some great jams and other tune selection. I would never have called Cinnamon Girl in a million years. I totally called the Buried Alive opener, though.
Saturday night was 200 for me and it felt special in a lot of ways. Great to finally see a show with
@natronzero for sure!! Happy
@GBL made the last minute call to join, too. I know he enjoyed it.
One last note... what in the ever living fuck happened to downtown Nashville?? I do not recognize it at all anymore. There were more girls on bachelorette party fiascos than there were phishheads out there. Fucking weird.

Nashville sucks... expensive, fake, touristy bullshit
broadway sucks, but nashville was a killer host for 3 nights. easy walking hotels all over the place. cheap ubers, and plenty of opportunity to get out into the country quickly. i could not believe how undersold the place was. front row 300 level seats available everywhere. plenty of room down low. easy, easy, easy.
band is killing it. every single song new and old has the possibility to transport you to outer space, and that's all we can ask for. saturday was the best night. that melt went to familiar melt insanity before climbing into incredible bliss jam territory. that first set was damn near 90 minutes!
can't wait for this weekend. don't play tweezer in ohio and let's drop a deep 2nd set egg in a hole at the UC!
Haven't listened to a second of fall tour yet, but damn I'm always bummed to miss a Lifeboy.
Looks like you missed your Egg in a Hole as well Anthrax!
:frustrated: :frustrated: :frustrated: :frustrated: :frustrated: :frustrated: :frustrated:
I thought for sure that Egg in a Hole would get played in Chicago, but I guess it makes sense that the lyrics are "I've gotta get back to Chicago" right before a Chicago show.
I really thought they would do Miami in Dayton "Oh me, Oh My-o, I tried in Ohio"... You'll probably end up getting that in Chi this weekend now.
let's be honest, he really only cared about the Tweezer, and I'm glad he's gonna get it
i haven't seen tweezer since vegas '21...which puts me at my last 22 shows without a tweezer...THAT IS INSANE!
i like the fact that trey was thinking about chicago before he even left dayton. friday the 13th tomorrow.
solar eclipse on saturday. it's gonna be so great.
are the sci fi soldier songs actually starting to make it into rotation? only the second 9th cube on tuesday. last night they actually played egg in a hole on purpose and not just stumbling into it out of a jam, so now it's good and ready. and we know trey doesn't care about the no repeats thing when it's an 8-9 show "tour." if they have a blast in chicago, it's coming out sunday night because they can't wait to come back!

I would assume Egg in a Hole was due to the preceding I Am the Walrus. But the Chicago thing works too.
In rotation? I feel like they've been playing Sci Fi solider, they play Howling and Don't Doubt Me pretty often, at least like 10 times in the past 2 years since it's been debuted. Feel like they are almost moving away from sci fi solider a little since they already have a gauntlet of new songs (the well, oblivion, hey stranger, etc). Egg in a hole just fit with the Chicago reference similar to them playing bittersweet motel after leaving Pittsburgh > Charleston for that 2019 run.
*ahem*

NERDS! Goddammit.
Jeff's 22 show streak is over! Holy Tweezer!

Yeah, that one hit me in the feels.
It looks like J-Ha is in the house tonight. Hopefully she comes out and sits-in.
Hate this song but really enjoyed this jam, especially the last 5 minutes or so. Get weird. Yeah Phish.

You hate Ruby Waves but like Soul Planet? That don't make no sense.
I do prefer Soul Planet.
Ruby Waves has brought the goods moreso, lately so I'll take it.

And by "lately" you mean since 2019.
Looking at the setlist, they sure played a lot of songs last night... But I'm happy one of them was Spanish Moon!!

after they hit the refrain that last 10 minutes is absolute fire, tippy top Phish imo
unbelievable weekend! friday was the best! 2nd set sunday took me somewhere far far away. love this shit. UC is the place for phish in chicago. i don't want to see them at any other venue in this town.
