Completely agree with two (at least) of the sentiments expressed in the review.

1. Jon Fishman. Wow. I'm not someone who keys in on the drummer when I hear music, but every since he moved to center stage at the beginning of last summer's tour, he is demanding more and more of my attention and respect, and last night, I was just in awe.

2. It struck me as they played that beautiful Fluffhead encore, that they maybe chose it with intention and specific reference to the Hampton opener in 2009. As if to say, yes, what we started in Hampton, we have now completed. We are back to where we want to be. This leg of the journey is now complete. But as we all know, the only rule is it begins. Can't wait for Dicks and fall tour.
Without trying to read too much into it (while naturally doing so), this was my thought exactly. I've felt since summer 12 (sry those that want to go back earlier) they've been consistently on the upward path. No reason to compare the last two tours, it's just great to be on this run. So, I think the Fluffhead was a bit of a bookend, yes.
