Review by TerrapinTrip

TerrapinTrip I am finally reviewing this show on the ol' .NET after listening to it again today while it is fresh.

First of all, great show! I remember it was a really high energy way to start the weekend, and I was very happy with their song selections (I have been chasing a MFMF and a Stash forever), and I really liked the MFMF jam into Brian & Robert. Was a very sweet way to cool down. Probably my favorite Cities I have seen yet as well. Second set was interesting and had some unique jams, especially the Ghost to Limb by Limb. Trey's blues solo during GTBT was awesome as well.

But it was really the encore that sold it for me. I LOVE Contact and have been wanting to see it my entire Phish career, and I was so happy that they played it. The Antelope was really phenomenal and they had great timing during the build-up and then into the reggae portion of the song. But my favorite thing about that encore that I just noticed, and I say this as someone who is a HUGE Blues Brothers fan, is that either Page or Fish played an audio clip of John Candy's line "Three orange whips!" from the Blues Brothers movie at the beginning of Contact.

Not sure how I never caught it before, but it really made me giggle this morning and I had to share that with y'all.
