this checks out. the parents one of the nicest girls I used to know and see phish with, worked there
Cutting my teeth on Midwest venues (looking at you Chicago) put a bad taste in my mouth when it comes to security so when I encounter a friendly staff it sticks with me. I just remember all the bar staff and ushers being just awesome people who really enjoyed the vibe that night. Iām hoping for a fall northeast tour this year so I can peep some leaves and hit some shows in New England. Iād love to start a run in Portland head to Hampton Beach then to Boston and end in Albany. Iām pretty sure those are easy enough drives to make the run somewhat simple. Burlington wouldnāt be a bad option either. Iām just trying to hit a run in most regions this year.
Iām hoping for some summer dates or fall up in the Northeast. One of the few regions of the country I havenāt seen a show. Iām trying to hit a few new states and venues this year since I have to pick and choose more now with my kids.
Also want another boys ter trip this summer to which the āwifeā signed off on like she is Biden signing a new bill.
Upstate NY gets killer shows, it has been that way since I started seeing them. Heaters more often than not.
Might as well bump this one too while weāre at it. Just top to bottom one of the greatest shows the band ever played. IMO even has definitive versions of āstandardā songs ie. Example 1 and BtL both of which are just crushed.
MASSIVE amount of improv? check
Unexpected swerves? check
Great song selection and flow? check
Rarities? check
Best encore ever for improv? probably
Fyp
Only thing this show has over 1/27/11
Would agree. Although in the moment I was over the fucking moon about the 1/27 encore, just hit me in the right spot
