God it's maddening that people say something's good "for 3.0"

3.0 improvisation is the fucking bees knees and has been for years now. Give me 20 minutes of stuff this interesting over an hour of mostly aimless fall 98-04 slop any day.

I get that the lack of quantity and overall setlist construction can be lame.. But when it comes down to it, I consistently find the most interesting 10 minute stretch of a 3.0 show to be more engaging than the most interesting 10 minute stretch of - I dunno- 80% of Phish shows.

Totally agree with you and I've been listening since the '90's. The Cow Funk era is overrated. I'm glad they are not trying to recreate that but are more in step with '95 than anything.

Just don't piss on my Winter Tour '03 shrine.
