Review by DownWithSteam

DownWithSteam Opening up Phish in 2025 was a great version of Sand, truly one of the highlights of the entire show. The band did not sound rusty in the slightest, and after all why would they. YEMSG was only a few weeks ago.

Mull might have gotten its most solid version to date. Hard to not like that when it gets jammy. Ghost was played perfectly and I thought Evolve and Antelope were very well placed. Solid first set.

2nd set turns up the heat, getting right to work with SYSF and a fantastic Cities. there really isn't a weak song in here in this set - Strong playing throughout. The Mikes Groove was all like butter, the weekapaug seemed slower and funkier than usual. The Twist that followed however was downright sick, highlighting the show. You'll want to listen to that thing.

We weren't done though, a double encore featuring My Sweet One and then a nasty Carini that took us to another dimension.

All in all a very strong 1st show here in mexico. gone are the days of lackluster 1 setters in mexico, we got right down to the goods tonight. The good news? Even though this was a good show - its going to be topped over these next few nights - for sure. The band is too good right now.

Set One: B
Set Two: A-

Rating: 4.25
