These kinds of lists are the reason that people say that Phish fans are all a bunch of dope fiends or glue sniffers.

I have only attended one Phish festival in my life, Magnaball, and I thought it was great. Really, really great. However, I don't think one can credibly claim that 1) Magnaball is better musically than Went and 2) they don't smoke PCP. The argument that a couple Went sets weren't as improv heavy as most shows of the era doesn't pass the smell test because only sets 2 and MAYBE 3 of night 2 at Magnaball would be anywhere close to being as improv heavy as most 1997 shows (maybe set 2 night 1 of Magnaball too). This is like when people tried to say MPP2 last year was better than the Bomb Factory when there was serious jamming at the Bomb Factory in addition to the Tweezer seguefest.

Similarly, I personally think Coventry gets hated on slightly too much because of all the horrendous shit people faced getting there and being there but there were some great jams there (as well as tons of horrible musical moments). That being said, Went was obviously better, and it isn't even close.

Besides that though, list seems mostly spot on. Cypress was definitely the best and It or Went were next. Clifford Ball is overrated and without question Festival 9 and Superball were the two worst; I would personally also go with Superball being the worst of the two and I think representative of 2011 being the worst 3.0 year for Phish (worst year since at least the very early 1990s and probably 1980s). Thank God they pulled out of that slump in 2012 and have been killing it ever since.
