I think that the wonderful thing about a solid review as this one, is the insightful comments that people leave. Sometimes, after a more scathing review of a show, the bitterness ensues, thus leaving a civil war on the comment chopping block. If you look at the comments on this review, they are all not ingratiating, but poignant.

1. I have seen, as of late, most of the Texas shows (Austin 2015 included,) and his mentioning of the crows size last night was on point. Would there be a larger crowd if they booked it in Dallas? I think they know their market, and they, according to last years banter, enjoy playing at this venue. I had plenty of space to dance, and being a Monday night, the staunch phans were pleasant.

2. The criticism of "Maze" being overlooked is correct. Rob does a perfect job describing the beauty and eccentricity of Wolfman's, but the true energy balance was the incendiary Maze coupled with the spacy IAWTW. Yes, it's not mindfucking Type II, but it's experimental, it's new, and sometimes new can be tough to take.

on a postscript, I've been a fan of Rob's writing for a long time, and I hope that, one day, he writes a book on Phish.
