Fantastic review!! So engaging, funny, relatable...especially:
"maybe the message was there all along - that a) it doesn’t matter what Phish plays, it’s how they play it and b) my feelings of mild disappointment with certain song calls in certain positions in the setlist are only predicated on my own expectations and experiences, so why not evolve past them?"

I've been discussing exactly this to a T with my brother after shows...like after 20+ min versions of SYSF, Soul Planet, etc.
