So I'm gonna be bluntly honest here, and I hope y'all take these words to heart before just hating on me for it... I was at all 4 shows of the Phish NYE run at MSG and EVERY NIGHT was absolutely perfect. The bar started really high with Wednesday night, my 50th show, and just continued to get consecutively better. However, I look at all 4 nights as one consecutive event, an event that could EASILY hold its own against any festival to date. To come home and find you people whining about hearing a song you didn't like or not getting a better jam out of a certain tune just brings us all down. "Couch tour"ers DID NOT ATTEND THE SHOW, did not feel the energy of MSG or experience the madness pre and post show that they call New York. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, and I more than welcome open and honest discussions, but to come home from such an epic experience to find a bunch of people who weren't there sh*t on the event they DIDN'T ACTUALLY EXPERIENCE is a serious downer. I've been using this site for many years, but after seeing this- I'm done for awhile.

Much ado is all I see, in fact it is surrounding me, the seething crowd intrudes all day, I'm out before I'm Swept Away...
