Review by therealburnham

therealburnham I wrote this at 1:20 am at http://soundandphission.blogspot.com . It may not be the most technical review of set II but I think it stands for itself. I edited out some swear words just because.

"Set two just ended and I wanted to jot down some quick words on it as it happened in real time.

HOLY EFFING CRAP THAT WAS AMAZINGSAUCE AND I WANT STUFF LIKE THAT ALL THE TIME AND THIS IS WHY WE PAY ALL THE MONEYS AND SPEND ALL OUR TIME TALKING ABOUT PHISH AND TRY TO GO TO AS MANY SHOWS AS WE CAN AND JUSTIFY IT TO OUR FAMILIES EVERY TOUR AND MAKE SURE THAT WE DON'T MISS OUT BECAUSE AFTER 30+ YEARS OF AMAZING CONCERTS AND SHOWS AND FRIENDS AND LIFE EXPERIENCES AND EXTRAVAGANZAS THEY CAN STILL PULL JAMS LIKE THAT AND NO OTHER BAND CAN DO THAT AND I LIKE UMPHREY'S AND I LIKE OTHER JAM BANDS AND I LIKE ALL SORTS OF MUSIC BUT NOTHING WAS COMPARABLE TO THAT AND NOTHING WILL COMPETE WITH THAT AND THAT WAS JUST SIMPLY STELLAR.

So in other words, I liked it a lot."

I mean, how do you talk about that set in objective terms? Incredibly unique. Incredibly well played. Incredible stage presence. And just great top to bottom. Will we ever see these songs again? I'm honestly not sure. I would be ok with it either way though. But damn can Phish still bring it.
