Wow. Talk about a perfect show. This was my first Phish festival at now 46 shows in. Over the past few years, I’ve had quite a few runs where I have gotten a lot of songs I’ve been chasing, this not being one of them. This show in particular was all songs I’ve seen before, but it taught me a very valuable lesson… it’s not about what they play, it’s about HOW they play. The whole run; the band kept ramping up their energy more and more. I thought night one was a little sloppy, but I also couldn’t have been more excited about how deep the jams were getting and how much they were willing to not “play it safe.” The band is ON right now, and if you’re too busy worrying about what songs they’re playing to enjoy yourself, well that’s on you. This run was the most free I have ever felt in my life: Phish made my body move so freely with my energy increasing each day. Thank you, Phish, for a perfect week with my friends. This show had ALL the heavy hitters with nonstop jams. What more could I possibly ask for?
