The patience and artistry of this era is something to behold.

I attended several shows in fall 1997 and island tour 1998. I missed this gem only due to a flat tire driving back to college for an exam after 4/2 show. I got back on the tow truck but couldn't return to uniondale.

Listening back on you tube in 2015 thanks to silverchair97 is a real treat. Set 2 had to be in the top 10 of sets ever.

From Went 97 to Providence 98 is the apex. Haters light me up but it is. No denying.

denver ghost.

champaign 2001.

Dayton psycho.

Philly groove.

Detroit tweezer+

The jim.

The rochester rock out.

Plus 10 other things.

I love this phish.

Seriously listen to 2001 played in miami 2015 and feel how rushed it is, then listen to it on 11/19/97 and 4/4/98.

Patience, proper build and payoff.

This is the reason for 60,000 people burning up on a sweltering air force base in oswego.

Not miami 2015.

I know it can't be like it was, but it can be better than it is. Mpp 2014 showed us its still there. So did randals.

Cmon boys, play for the art, please. Were still here and we still love you.
