So we had a show tonight?

A good one, apparently.

Can't wait to hear that LxL everyone was raving about.

[phg]

gotta be the best or close to the best limb ever, just because its never jammed like that.

solid show, best first set they've played this leg. some decent segues in 2nd set and nice song choices throughout.

[Itsnotanexperience]

Scott good seeing you I ran into LEO shortly after I left you, screw the 24 hour rule best show I have seen in a long time just when I thought Limb was going to lead off the 4th quarter of rockers and ballads to bring the show home, something happened that I haven't had happen in a long time Phish surprised the crap out of me. I am beyond words right now, just got home and I am trying to put my mind back together. The venue is perfect for Phish and I just hope this is the start of a beautiful friendship between the two.

LxL is pretty groovy.  They are  hooked up and trey let's it rip, but I'm not sure its worth blowing up the internet over. 
Total fish abortion, then........ Julius.  :-/

There went the Camel Walk, Possum, Sloth for tomorrow night.

[mistercharlie]

Totally forgot there was a show last night. I'll be giving this LxL a spin based on everyone's reactions to it. It's got a lot to live up to. I'm expecting something akin to the 11/02/98 LxL

At the airport for the trip back to Atlanta.     Really happy with the show and honestly enjoyed nearly everything about it.    The LxL was a great version as was the curtain, peaches, possum, sand, and walk away and YEM.    Sure, lots of Trey rock peaks throughout but they worked for me and all in all, i really loved the flow of this show and some of the seques felt great.     The YEM was essentially flawless and a great version....even enjoyed the vocal jam.   

Best show I have seen from this band since 2000, and that's without a standout jam other than the LxL.    Maybe it was seeing the show with my 90s crew together for the first time since 9/23/00 or maybe it was the energy they generated going curtain to peaches or maybe it was the weed, but whatever it was, they held me happy the entire show.
