@NigelTufnel I mean this in the nicest way possible, but what are you doing here if you think comparing and analyzing the merits of shows is pointless? That's what this place is for. But of course, you clearly don't truly think that, since (a) you're here, and (b) you disagree with OP's assessment of Bangor, so you obviously have evaluated its merits yourself. It sure seems to me that your dismissal of the idea of Phish criticism is being selectively applied here.
