Review by Phfishman

Phfishman This was my first Phish show and boy was it worth it. I had been listening to phish for about a year but I hadnt been able to catch any shows until they came to my town. Im so happy that I was able to see two shows without even leaving my town. They played all my favorites too!

When the boys came out the crowd was ecstatic, I had seen megadeth in this arena a year prior and there weren't half as many people as when phish came! The environment was so intense and electrifying I was so pleased to be there. I came alone but it didn't take me long to hook up with some awesome people.

When the boys came on stage the mood was intense when Trey cut in with Chalkdust the place went INSANE. I mean I cant even describe it. Chalkdust was tight, and then the next song couldnt have been picked better. When Moma started the funk was through the rooof, everybody was getting down and they played it excellently it is my favorite Moma by far. Divided sky was stellar! During the pause the crowd got so loud I thought my ears were going to explode. Not to mention it was a siiick divided sky. Water in the sky was performed greatly and it kept the mood up while the band set a slower tempo (although it was still fast!). Fast enough for you was great very powerful. TTE was great but god it was sooooo long.

Jibbo was excellent and it was one of the songs I was hoping to hear. Fluffhead was great as expected. PYITE another great one, just a little sloppy.

The highlight of the show I must say was Light -> rest of show. Light was so sick! and now its one of my favorite songs. Back on the train is my favorite phish tune and at the end of light when Page started fading in with the begining of GBOTT I was ectastic! Possum was spiritual! I had a favorite version of this song I watched many times on youtube and I felt like I was in the video I was so happy at this point - still everybody was groovin and getting down the whole place was insane! The event staff had never seen anything like it before! Neither had I!

SLAVE! It was awesome! One of the best Ive ever heard.

YEM was spectacular! And at this point they had played almost all of my favorites and YEM was just the cherry on top. Fishman did a sick little jam halfway through and the vocal jam was awesome.

Joy was boring - sorry.

Golg was decent and Tweeprise was a perfect end to the night.
