User_25597_ I saw it on the couch.
I have to agree with most of this review; you're never going to win any friends by criticizing the music. Fishman was on point last night, like demonstrably so. He was spitting hot fire the whole night. My buddy texted me "sick gumbo" and I was like, "don't jinx it! they were supposed to have slam the door shut on this one by now. Don't tip them off!" and just like that, right when I was zoning out, they closed the door. Why do you refuse to jam this out?!?!?
This band is so infuriating sometimes. I mean, the first set was pretty darn good. The Chalkdust was pretty darn good, and then they just kill everything with scents and subtle sounds. Phish has earned the right to play whatever they want, but that doesn't mean I've forfeited the right to say I think some song selections are poorly placed.
This tour definitely had some moments (the second night of Merriweather was the obvious highlight for me), but it also had some real head-scratching decisions as well.
Looking forward to a nice west coast run this fall.
