Uninspired, flat, and boring. And the weather cannot be blamed because the first set was just as bad. Before set two, all of the extremely experienced Phish heads (I was on the rail Page side and there were many) all expected the band to come out and completely rage. I believed them and hoped it would push Phish to leave their game plan from set one behind and start over. With Tweezer I though it was going to come true. But it didn't. Trey dictated the show like I have never seen. Picking every song knowing full well that they didn't leave room for anyone else in the band to take off. It was not a Phish greatest hits, it was a Trey greatest hits. Compositional songs that break down to a soaring Trey solo. The only exception was Suzy, where Page can go nuts AND HE TRIED TO BUT TREY CUT HIM OFF TWICE. I WANTED TO SMACK TREY AND SO DID PAGE. AND IT WAS STILL THE HIGHLIGHT OF THE SHOW (GBOTT and Timber could argue against that).
I think that Trey really might have wanted to play a huge second set, but he seriously fucked it up. And the worst part is that Tuesdays show was INCREDIBLE. I was on the rail page side for that show as well and it was the best time of my life. The band was firing on all cylinders and laying down the THICK funk. IT WAS FREAKIN' AWESOME.
Night two blew...
