Sneknsally What a great finish to a great summer tour ( both leg 1 and 2)!!! Dicks was by far the best 3 night run phish 3.0 hands down! I was not able to attend but watched all three nights on couch tour. 60inch flat screen with speakers blasting and it was truley magic. Can only image being there. Got to see Alpine1,KC, and STL this summer, with STL taking the top show for me that a personally attended. But phuck me silly I should have been at Dicks! First night...well dont even need to really say anything, we all know how creative and speacial that night was. Dicks 2.... Can anyone say Golden Age> Caspian> LIGHT, personlly i have seen some really great jams come out of light in the last 4 years but I think this Jam in Dick's light is in there for top 20 jams of all times.... again personally opinion here folks.. Great energy from the crowd and band all three nights with some many highlights I'm just sticking to the ones that have been giving me the chills all day today relistening to them. 3rd night second set was fkning insane..Sand thru piper was beautiful, i agree with the twenty years later comment but they did make up for it with a perfectly played Lizards!!! So happy to see the boys taking risks again and with the maturety in they're playing so much potential still yet to be unleshed!! Have seen 21 3.0 shows and have always walked away pretty happy with a few exceptions DC 09, both Toyota park shows and Riverbend 2011. Saw 36 show from Kiel 96 thru alpine 04.. Saw some truley EPIC shows during that time, so I hate the fact that eveyone thinks every show is epic now. There not... however Dicks was!! Was at Big Cypruss, Island Tour, 07/11/2000 and saw several shows during 97 summer and fall including alot of 98-2000. Those were different times then. The band has changed, hell we all have grown up. We still want the Jams but I think 09-2011 the band has sharpened their skills, trimmed the fat so to speak, and all came together at DICKS. So wish there was fall tour this year, if they could keep pushing with just a little time off from here on out I think we can have some of the best Phish years yet to come.... Just my 2 cents. My favorite shows that I have attended 3.0 knoxville 09, Gorge1 09, alpine1 2010, UIC1 2011, Alpine1 2012, spac3 2012, STL 2012..... But with out a doubt 2012 has been the best year 3.0.... From Worchester with Gems thru out leg one ending with a great run at spac to second leg longbeach, SF3, STL and then the holy Grail of 2012 DICKS!!!!! Couldn't be more excited to be a phish phan than right now. Im older, have kids and a 8 to 5 but phuck it, at least now i can afford to travel and see the shows I want with out having to fuck with shady work on lot to get me to the next show like the old days.... God I love this band!! See you folks next time around. Be safe and remeber kids MODERATION is the key word here. Side Note: Does any one remember the Harry Hood from Rosemont Fall of 99... I need a good recording of that show! Any help would be nice..... PEACE
