06/21 - Alpine Valley - East Troy, WI - Post-Show Discussion and Review

[sls.stormyrider]

just finished this one, heard set 2 twice.
I would have been psyched to have been there, probably would've danced all night.
but, at home it's... very good

C+P and DWD are good, Piper never really gets going. Agree 100% with Jedi's comments earlier in the thread.

For perspective, I was listening to some 8/93 before this one - not fair I guess.

so - while I am enjoying Phish 3.0 so far, and am happy with they way they are progressing, I agree with other comments that they are not quite at the level of Phish 1.0 (admittedly, very few are / ever were).
still, it's great music and lots of fun.

and first night was fun and all, but i NEEDED that 2nd set 2nd night... FOR REAL.  

i guess that sign made its way down towards the stage?

cause i saw the dude with it after the show...

i may have said this before... but if there is anyone who is possibly bringing the h33t more than ever before.... its Sir Page Mcconnell

that psychedelic clavinet melted my face i do say


and for the whats the use accusation... i can see what line from trey would make you think that but its a line ive heard from him before in other versions of taste.... so i think that one is clearly busted 

if it was whats the use... i would have shit myself at the show

I agree. I'm listening to a lot from 91-93, and nothing they are doing now comes close to it. ... And I think the C+E is overrated from Alpine.

[mattstick]

Is anyone saying it's a great C&P?  Even standard?  I don't think so.

I will say this, it was a blast to be in the 2nd row in front of Fish when they busted it out.

I think we can agree that where the boys are now isn't near 91-93..or '94..or '95, etc...I think we need to see in which kind of direction they're headed to and put phish 3.0 w/in its proper context...it's kind of like saying what the Dead was doing in '95 doesn't compare to '77...no shit

In my mind, Phish 3.0> Grateful Dead '95.

I HOPE THIS DOESN'T IGNITE A FLAME WAR!

I think you're safe bro

[Lifeboy]

Just kidding. I agree 100%
