Buried Alive: the best way to start a Phish show

Wilson: first one in a while with an extended middle section, pretty normal otherwise

NICU: standard

Bathtub Gin: great version that builds then breaks type 2, but stays high energy and finds its way to a peak and back into the song to end. Really good

Gumbo: nice Page clav before the usual piano ending

Limb By Limb: some problems with flubs, but the jam is solid

The Well: debut.This song fucks. It’s always fun to see the 1.0 oldheads get pissed and then realize its great and evil. Nothing notable yet here

Mountains In The Mist: I love this song so much. One of the best cooldown options for the second set, or in this case after The Evil Well

Halfway To The Moon: played well (haha get it?)

Split Open And Melt: (watch this) well, we still need more evil Phish (get it?), so SOAMelt is gonna close this first set. Very strange, spacey, exploratory, and a good example of what they’re going for with these 4.0 melts.

Mike’s Song: sick 1st jam and we go into

Carini: type 2 jam starts with Your Pet Cat teases and has the typical 2022-2023 Trey build and peak but instead of ending they break free again into more evil spacier territory. This section is really good. But it doesn’t last too long as Trey finds another peak, better this time, and he finds the route back into Carini to end it off

Weekapaug Groove: slight issue finding the tempo, but they do after a bit, and the jam gets funky immediately. Unusual ending but other than that pretty average version

Sand: another type 2 journey here, has a really nice Trey and Page section early on, Mike has some fun later as they get back to the Sand theme to finish

Reba: perhaps a hint of what’s to come in the encore? Composed parts are mostly played well and the jam is gorgeous as always

More: some people hate it, I think it’s a good closer

The Night The Lights Went Out In Georgia: let Fish cook

Hold Your Head Up: hilarious

You Enjoy Myself: first performance in Georgia since 2003. Quick encore rendition, but still fun and I live for bass+drums

Very fun show to end the run in Alpharetta. The Well debut, along with the rest of the first set is great. Second set has some solid type 2 jamming in Carini and Sand. Encore is spectacular. This is a 8/10. Highlights are Gin, SOAMelt, Carini, Sand, Reba, TNTLWOIG>HYHU, and YEM
