This was a fantastic piece. It really brought home the flavor of those elusive August months, those nites where everything just clicks and all seems right with the world. And I for one am truly grateful to have had Phish in my life since my neighbor, tired of me moping about blaring Dead tunes, miracled me, dosed me and drove me to the Darien Lake '97 gig, the one where the Pranksters came out during the second set and I proceeded to of course lose my mind. The ensuing years where I followed the band around is the highlight of my life, a true blessing. Cheers!
