Scott This was epitome of a 'solid' show -- everything from Theme through Suzy was classy A- Phish, but I doubt anything will make the jam chart.

Other comments/observations -

*Alas, I got my ass handed to me every day; it [the house] pays off once in a while, then robs you clean. A slick talking dealer at Harveys claimed to have dealt the band a lot of losing hands in a previous year, so I'm wondering if those tunes weren't chosen with the locale in mind
*The setlist has a conventional structure to it and that's fine early in tour when everything sounds fresh anyway (Pro tip: with the possible exception of Live Bait, don't listen to Phish for 1-2 months before tour)
*Everything's Right is a terrific 1st set type I-1.5 vehicle with good lyrics; one of the highlights of the show IMO
*The Blaze On jam devolved into something Trey started layering over with the echoplex, which made for a nice -> into IAWITW. Given the story above about the sign, it seems like this is something they worked out at setbreak.
*There were few to no mistakes compared to N1, so yes it was tighter.
*I played cards with a old man from Firenze and a couple other phans... he got super excited when I waxed nostalgic about traveling in Italy. I didn't think to mention YEM to him but I'd still like partial credit for the mojo that led to it being played.
