DrChapstick Thank you Phish.net for all the great reviews. I've been seeing Phish since 1994. Started having kids in the early 90's so missed a lot of the meltdown. Since 2009 have seen 5 or 6 shows a year. They never disappoint. 2 years ago my son Jack, who is 15 became my touring partner and we've done 7 shows together. Hey got my old ass out of the stands and down to the floor. Last night he was front row against the rail dancing his ass off. It was so fun to watch.

To answer an earlier text Trey did not get hit with a glow stick. Think it hit the end of the guitar and doubt it was malicious. There we hundreds of glow sticks bouncing around the room and lots of balloons to lend a festive atmosphere. I loved the older standards in the first set. I loved the happy, happy second set. I know it wasn't for everyone but that venue has great acoustics and seeing my son one the front row grinning and dancing was really special.

Thought it was a great show. No extended jamming last night. But that seems to be part of Phish's transition. I wouldn't miss this band for anything. They are the best thing going.

It's surreal to have into yell down the hallway in the house for your kid to turn off Phish. After all it's 1140 on a school night. Life changes and I'm glad I can just go with it. Phish changes too and we've all seen this multiple times over the years. I think what they are doing makes them happy and it really translates with their playing. They love playing the new stuff and being able to exhibit their unique art to us lucky few.
