Fabulous review! Trey's preparation was outstanding and thorough; he even played the "Touch" solo - a personal favorite - note-for-note. I smiled as many Phish fans must have when Trey got the loudest cheers, but was that the non-Phish crowd acknowledging his stellar contributions or the Phish fans in attendance screaming for their "Jerry" having overachieved on the largest stage of his career? I agree that potential implications of Trey's performance could be huge, but in what form? As much as I live and breath Phish it's hard to see how this past weekend catapults them to a higher plateau. Maybe more exposure for Trey? It will be interesting to see how this plays out, both intellectually and musically.

I have the same questions about the implications to Phish. It will be interesting to see how it plays out.
