The OP is correct that Forum 2 was 'nothing special' in the general sense of recent and historic phish shows. That being said, the last 6 minutes of Fuego are pure genius. Spellbinding.

It used to be that a great 1st set would get overlooked if a 2nd set was thought to lack sufficient quantity of type II jamming. Now, a strong but not epic type II outing is a baseline expectation. If combined with a great first set and/or a lot of setlist candy, a typical night of jamming can earn a lot of 5 star votes these days. There are fewer pure 'songfests' with hardly any jamming and therefore fewer truly 'dud' shows IMO. Forum II had just enough improv to pass muster but it didn't have a great first set, rarities, or buttery segues and it did have a normal amount of flubbing.

But that Fuego!
