I will always hold a special place in my heart for this show being it was my first phish show ever. Before attending this show I had listened to one phish song. A live version of "Slave to the Traffic Light". That was it. So I basically went into this show not knowing anything about Phish or their Music. I left the venue just experiencing a life changing event, and the obsession has since taken over lol.

I just recently re-listened to this show. After seeing 3 more Phish shows since then I believe I can now give this a proper review.

1st set.

CROWD CONTROL- I thought was kind of a boring show opener. They played it well but it wasn't anything mindblowing.

KILL DEVIL FALLS- The jam in this was great.

AC/DC BAG- Everytime I get this song I love it. Not sure if you can really critique this song. I thought it was played well, good jam, just an overall fun song.

SUGAR SHACK- Was cool to get this song. Love the little guitar solo riff after the choruses. I'm pretty sure Mike forgot some of the lyrics.

TUBE- The crowd was screaming for this, and Trey obliged. Got mad funky as usual. Great energy.

IN THE AEROPLANE OVER THE SEA- Debut. I absolutely loved this song. Story is Trey got the lyrics couple hours before the show, and he absolutely nailed it.

STASH- Nothing special. Pretty standard compared to other versions I have heard.

Backwards Down the Number Line- Not a huge fan of this right now, but it is a pleasant song. Not sure how to rate this version compared to others.

NICU- Pretty standard. Nothing Special

46 Days- This brought the energy up! WOW, I was destroyed by this song at the show.

Suzy- Great way to close out the first set. Nothing to incredible.

Overall":

First set was just ok. Nothing mind blowing. Highlights for me would have to be 46 Days, TUBE and AC/DC BAG

SET 2

Rock and Roll>Columbia JAM- Holy crap this was great. Started nice with the rock N roll, but the Columbia Jam was off the wall. 9 minutes of perfection. I can't say enough about this jam.

FREE- And then this song hit me like a ton of bricks. Wow I was blown away at the show by this song. The guitar solo gets me evertime. I can't really compare it to other versions, but holey crap this was great.

Fast Enough For You- Beautifully played song.

SPARKLE- !!!!! PERFECT TIMING FOR THIS SONG. Wow was that fun. Pretty standard version, but was perfect, perfect timing to pull it out.

TWEEZER= Awesome version. I got a better version 12/30/2010, but this one was very well played as well.

THE HORSE>SILENT IN THE MORNING- Beautiful songs, beautifully played/

Wolfman's Brother= OH BOY! great great version.

SLAVE TO THE TRAFFIC LIGHT= YOUR BOY GOT HIS ONLY SONG HE KNW! hahaha. When this came on I went nuts! Played well, however I kind don't like how they have slowed this song down in the newer versions. Some of the older versions I have they play this song a lot faster and I seem to enjoy those more. Still was incredible to get my first show.

TWEEZER REPRISE= Nothing special. However, Phish seems to always want to play this to close out the encore. I LOVED how they did it before the encore this show.

Encore:

Show Of Life- This song never blows me away. Its a pleasant song, but I'm sure glad it wasn't the only song of the encore/

Good Times Bad Times- HOLY CRAP! What a way to end my first ever Phish show. They absolutely murdered this song! Love when page comes in with his little verse!

Set 2 overview:

Incredible second set. Deff worth the listen. Highlights have to be RNR>columbia Jam, FREE, SLAVE, and GTBT!
