InsectEffect Nicely done, ladies! Looks like the early 2nd set ballad slot is back, in this case filled by 'The Line.' We saw a similar pattern early last summer too, until the ballad slot --often filled by 'Silent' and 'Wading' in '13-- shifted to more customary 3rd quarter placement. At very least, I'm happy that there are new Fuego ballads to change things up with...

@Plicculus I'm kinda inclined to agree. '2001' is easily one of the most Phish-ified 'covers' in the catalog -- more like a reinterpretation of a reworking, rather than a straight cover. I'm not too familiar with the history of 'Halley's Comet,' but it's origins are similar to 'I Didn't Know,' and no one seems to be arguing about that one. It seems to me that these are basically songs written by a band friend and then adopted by Phish. Glad the point has come up, as it suggests that Phish is flirting with a fine 'line,' and/or good-naturedly fucking with us, as they'll do. ;-)
