Review by Palmer

Palmer Got tickets as a last second why not. Left Syracuse where I was living at time time and got to the venue after work right as they were getting on stage. Climbing up the beautiful hill The Connection began pumping away. People seemed to be wondering to themselves if the show has begun or was this part of the soundcheck. I think it caught us by surprise. I was glad to hear it, my first. DWD began second, love this song and always welcome this anytime. Sample came next, a Hoist double dose, why not it's Phish, you never know what is to come. then Ocelot, a nice slow funked out laid back groove, kept people going for a little bit longer. Reba > Horn > Funky Bitch really got people moving on the lawn, the nice view of the lake in the foreground, the scent of fresh burnt bud in the air and the crisp spring air was an amazing feeling, along with friends on the lawn you can not ask for anything other than this. Undermind came to the table, my first, loved it. Like the album although it's one i usually ignore when listing to Phish, then Ballad of Curtis Lowe, Page Page Page. Bowie closed the set and did it well, enjoyed the flow of the latter part of the second half of the first set more than the first part IMP.
Set Two- Calling a Mikes Song, Nope got Possum, glad i did because Mikes was given to us the second song in, decent jamming and solid effort among our four amigos. Simple followed, one of my favorites. Not
one of my favorite versions but well take it, then I am the Walrus, not I am Hydrogen, sounds awesome. The stars seem to be out tonight, Weekapaug > Limb by Limb was my highlight, everyones got one and this was mine. Love the double blast combo of high energy, slow energy and a mix of both, Joy was a good laid back break of energy for a pumping second set. Hood > Golgi was Phish's way of saying thank you to the crowd and the energy of the crowd was a way of saying thank you to the band. Encore- Was thinking Loving Cup, Waste or something in between. Got the in between.... First Tube, eh. Not my favorite Phish song, certainly not my favorite encore but hell, headed to the car early. Loved the show, no complaints really except for the encore but hell it happens. Love Phish, Love the crowd and loved the venue. Good times had by all.
