gladtobeaglenn ^this. Couldn't have put it better myself. Having gotten on the Dead bus in 1973 and witnessed the metamorphosis of the music, band and scene I draw some parallels to 2016 Phish. It was painful for most old-time Heads to hear Jerrys slow decline in the 90's. The big difference in Phish is they're still trying for that gold ring down inside. Do they always grab it? Of course not. But being at Mann n2 last year makes me believe they are capable of grabbing the ring every once in a while for an entire show. Also, having been at SPAC this run, I'll admit there were cringe-worthy sections of some songs, but there were also some peaks and I'll accept the flubs along with the gold. I will continue to see as many shows as I can, because the band is here and they're giving it they're all just my .$02.
