Review by kop_phish

kop_phish I had a fun time at this show! The first set started very well, then fizzled but for a couple songs, one of them being SOAM. The second set was definitely better, I remember. I probably will only revisit the 2001 on my ipod, though. I don't really remember 2001s over time - they just get the audience riled up, but seldom are memorable per se. Friday night's was a very clear exception. There are better shows to listen to so far than Friday, but I'm not sure I heard any song yet in 2010 as nasty, fun, funky, and inspiring as this 2001. Well worth the purchase and deserves many repeated listenings!

On a side note, I was the only guy in college who wanted Thriller (the album) played for Halloween 1995 (and every Halloween thereafter)! Not only was I lucky enough to experience (probably/maybe?) the closest Phish will get to that, but I feel vindicated for being the lone wolf on that album pick. If Phish were to perform this whole album live for Halloween, the potential is for the funkiest s*t ever for a Halloween show. If you don't believe me, listen to the 2001 again from the June 25th show and you will believe!
