Im finally going to get around to reviewing what i remember from this 7 night MSG run.

Night one of the run and I was excited. I wasn't able to make many of the Bakers Dozen, so this was my first chance to do a big residency. Night 1 I thought would be a warm up or the most skippable - thank god i still went. This definitely holds up as one of the better shows.

We got in through the MSG turnstyles and went to our seats. Right out of the gate I knew this run would be fantastic with the Wave of Hope. Talk about a way to begin, It was hot. And after that, they drop the Cities on us, my first ever. It was also my first old home place.

Stash was amazing. Was drunk and ate food during it and had my face melted. First set a very solid B+, and all im thinking is thank God this band is here and ill be here for all these nights.

Set two time. My first ever More and I actually like the song. The 2nd set did not hold a candle to the first set, which would be somewhat of a theme on this run - but it does contain the best part of the show - a ripping melt to close the show. Aliens and UFOs were the talk of that week and i can honestly say that was as close as ive been to extraterrestial life. thank you phish. Set two B. abbreviated but very strong GTBT encore. This show rocked and deserves this 4.38~ rating. Very very solid. No warming up needed.
