BornXEyed I'll have to re-read the comments meticulously, but I don't recall reading anyone complaining about the band overall or comparing them to the 90s shows in this thread (though I understand that happens often on the boards). So it seems silly to rag on .netters who hold objective opinions about a show, or compare the scene to GD. There are several "I'm deader than thou posts" in here that offer no substance to the conversation about this particular show. And telling people to "stop whinnin" or "stop phishin" just because they disagree on the "epicness" of this show, is childish.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion and while I agree Phish is currently at their best in a very, very long time, this show fell flat...for me. If you wanted style over substance, then I guess this is your show: a bunch of mostly popular songs played straightforward. If you sought risk taking, curve ball playing, and dynamic flow, then it didn't deliver, save for Tweezer> Sand.

It was a safe show and this run will not be acknowledged much in the future when discussing "Best Of" shows and runs, in any era of Phish.
