As my last memory of witnessing Phish live, in concert, lets call a spade a spade. These shows sucked.

If you are into seeing/hearing people (who you devoted a significant part of your life to at that point) at rock bottom, then by all means, dive right in.

I can't do it...the darkness surrounding this experience will always overshadow any joy I can take from these shows.

I can and do listen to Summer 2004 in moderation...but Coventry will always reside on my HD collecting dust, and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future.
