kyleindeed 30th show! I kept saying I wanted my elusive Crosseyed that I’d been chasing to be caught tonight.. more on that later!!

First set was not always attempting to be crowd favorite. Lots of expository going on that (although necessary in the overall ebb and flow of Phish) didn’t hit the mark as well as hoped. I found it fun and mostly happy. Stash is the clear standout, which had a nice little trek into ooey gloomy before a nice section of more happy and finishing in fine form Stashy, kudos. Biggest gripe is Trey and those damn lyrics. Clearly he’s practiced his guitar. Get this man a karaoke machine!

ER in S1 opener was welcome and deserving of this golden opportunity. When following greatness from the night before (in 2 20-25+ jams S2), sometimes ur best not to compete with any other jam than your own. ER does this and shows the ferocity and versatility it has grown into as an amazingly inspiring go to jam. The interplay with WTU was a solid touch, and largely because of the meat within the 2 slices of grilled cheese, otherwise known as..

CROSSEYED!!! Tour debut and so glad I got my wish to catch this song at my 30th show. Seriously, like a really blissful moment and I am so thankful for this band.

Given the sludgey jamming of late, DWD being played again was par for the course. This version had a surprisingly enchanted tone to it. It’s like a Robinhood-esq crusade for justice.. This DWD is the type of jam that’s rescues all of the macaroni and bacon baked grilled cheeses and gives them to people for free. Just what the doctor ordered. Rockin Possum for the S2 win was great too!

DWYS is a fun song that I wish more people would enjoy watching it develop. Love will carry us through!

I don’t feel this night is as strong as night 1. The 2nd set was complete fire and had a lot of synergy, which is to be expected anytime Crosseyed gets played of late. Although my catch wasn’t an all timer version, it reminded me that for how long I have been still waiting.. that elusive moment ends, momma dance. And I didn’t end up in the hospital #Phishing
