The discussion of First vs Second Sets in Phish 3.0 has picked up as of late (see the comments following the recent blog post, “How I Learned To Stop Worrying And Love The Phish”). And not to be completely dismissive, last night’s 75-minute first set was what could have been expected. Outside of the “Gin” and maybe the “Wombat,” I struggle to find a section I want to hear again. But just as the First Set could be passed over, the Second Set was full of captivating improvisation and interesting song choices.

Love this. It's commentary like this that makes me come back to this blog over and over, as much as for the insights into the music.

Great job with this writeup. I believe you succeeded in capturing the the tenor and fiber of the evening. I had/have many of the same thoughts.
