Longhaireddan I agree be nice, but you also take a side. That side being “flubs are fine, chill out”.
Again, pointing out flubs and missed changes is not saying phish sucks and we’re not having fun. It’s just a little disappointing. Particularly when some songs are routinely flubbed (Rift), some don’t quite come together (but don’t come apart) (Alpharetta Free, listening to it last night). And it’s not taking a risk and playing shit, it’s playing a song that you always play the same and playing it like shit. I think they could practice even some staples a wee bit.

I think it’s GREAT that we can listen to a show 45 minutes after it ends and discuss it with the fam. If it’s an east coast show I can listen to it here in Alaska same night and still get some sleep. Cool.

I think that the “lack of consensus” suggests that this is not Spring ‘92, Fall ‘97, BD, but instead that this is a fun summer tour that won’t go down as one of the greats. That doesn’t mean we “cant agree on anything”. That means it’s not a top shelf period of Phish. Plenty of touring left in the year though!
