First show with Weekapaug and no Mike's since I don't know when.

2/22/03?

K+ for running the threads d00d.  Decent show with some excellent parts.  the Beneath A Sea of Stars went into almost Dark Star territory.  That shit was money.  Wider is a welcome addition to the rotation imo.  No HotBox but there is still tomorrow.  Solid show, looking forward to a relisten.  Not the show of the tour but they can't all be.

Yeah Beneath the Sea of stars got a little deep there. Ghost > Weekapaug was really nice. Was a little bummed when Trey abruptly went into Birds but that ended up being a pretty sweet jam too. 

Energy and Gin were highlights in the first set.

Interesting on paper, solid stuff overall.

12/2/03 too maybe? The 20th anniversary show?

Foam encore?  I have to imagine that's a first.

The legend of Gin/Foam continues.

I am in favor of this show.

I am in favor of this show.

So far, I agree. First set was solid. On to the second set...

Interesting show, jamming felt a bit disjointed and unsure, but that also led to some bad ass, exploratory, textural jams. Seemed like they had no idea what to do with "Under the Sea of Stars"... but kept pushing it and got to some super cool spaces.  I dig the vibe of "Wider" too. Both welcome additions to the catalog, IMO.

First set was solid. Ya gotta love a second song weekapaug. Didn't hate petrichor. It's def a long song though. Foam was a treat, although, it sure ain't 93 anymore. Kind of adorably-cringey watching Trey try and keep up on that tune.

All in all. Phish wins! Can't wait for tonight.

Wondering how the venue was for those that were in attendance.

small and super chill. Sound was a bit muddy on the side of the stage. I'm on the floor tonight so I'm sure that will be rectified. Everybody seemed into the music and ready to party.  Post show we sat on a patio in front of a fire and watched the wook migration roll by. At 2:00 security cracked down a bit on the blatant drinking  but we managed to chill for a few more hours. Not quite Vegas, but not a bad substitute.
