I agree that not every song has to be jammed out. That would make a pretty tedious show. There are room for songs. And phish doesn't have anything left to prove other than to themselves, so they can do what they want. But the opening slot of a night set at festival is prime jamming time, so I have to say I'm a little disappointed. And, IMO, the subsequent 46 days jam wasn't that good at all.

I'm not trying to be a hater. I really do love this band. I just think there's a lot of grade inflation going on here. IT doesn't happen every night. A show can be just raging and not have IT. To keep loudly saying IT was there is wishful thinking, disingenuous, and devalues when IT actually does show up. I've seen tons of great shows, but I can count on two hands the number of IT ones. This show wasn't one of them. That's all.
i don't think you are....

it's obvious from your other posts.

i agree with your most of your last paragraph (just too much tweezer and caspian for me to entirely agree). i don't love days in the spot is currently occupies. like asihtos, i like it to open a show. but man do they seem to dig it.

any minute now....
