Review by Phriend_of_the_Devil

Phriend_of_the_Devil The first set was everything we like about Phish. Unexpected twists and bustouts, all nicely played, with some excellent jamming on Roggae and Stash, and with a fine Cavern closer.

The second set was everything we love about Phish. Wolfman's was an excellent opener, with Mike absolutely killing it. The Golden Age > Simple > Chalkdust would have been the highlight of most sets. I was mildly disappointed that they made no attempt to go exploratory on Chalkdust, but that soon dissipated in the wake of the Martian Reprise. This was one of those moments where, when it's done, all you can do is feel your face to make sure it's still there. Wingsuit was a fine choice for the Jerry-ballad slot, and Possum and GTBT nicely brought it all home.

Download this, appreciate the first set, and then turn it up to 11 and enjoy.
