this is what i wrote to my friends about last night.

venue holds a little over 10,000. it was full for sure. not many people looking for tickets in the lot yesterday. you either had one or you didn't. it wasn't a typical phish scene because it was so immediate, and not exactly on the beaten track of a normal tour. last nights show was great. setlist wise they didn't do anything out of the ordinary, but it doesn't matter because the show was for a cause. everything was played very crisp as the boys continue to be on a roll. i have absolutely zero complaints, and i believe everyone in attendance felt the same way. the phans there were fortunate to be there, and that is the attitude that needed to be had. what a great time. also, setlist in my opinion definitely paid homage to their roots. cavern with picture of nectar quote, slave and carini for the dude and pete. wolfman's does contain hurricane quote. songs that trey has written with tom that he clearly enjoys. Possum for Jeff?, or just another Possum. I told Joey that Trey was last nights MVP, which means it is always a good show. Page had a look after Suzy like whoa, what did i just do? You did it Pageand took us to your house. Chalkdust was a perfect opener for me last night.Loving Cup encore reminded everyone that being at a Phish show is indeed a beautiful buzz. Julius went from mellow jazzy to a hard raucous set closer. Probably my favorite Julius seen live. No complaints here. If you're gonna complain at a Phish show, you probably should not be there.

On a side note: Initially going by myself, i felt i brought a bunch of people with me to this show. every phriend who could not attend, and the non fan friends that were excited I was going and was able to be so lucky to get a PBTM. The Hurricane affected my scheduled work in Rhode Island. I would have never been here. The people I have met in Providence did everything to accommodate me in getting to Vermont, and even though they don't go to shows or genuinely like Phish, they wanted to know every detail from me about my experience as well. Oh and every one I met around me on the rail were absolutely great.
