I could go on, but suffice it to say that each of above happened in the thread above, some more than onces. If one of those takes is your knee-jerk response to a salty recap, then yes - maybe phish.net recaps aren't for you.
Could you go on though? I’m curious how deep this list could go.

And then we could rank them by stupidity.

This is a perfect example of utter bullshit.

I'm coming to believe that the ever-widening and harshening (is that a word? it is now!) of opinions and the response to those opinions is a direct influence of the internet on phish as well as our culture (cf every time politics is brought up on this site and, well, politics in general). Each take has to be hotter than the last and the ability to intelligently disagree has seemingly vanished. there's no way any of us would talk this rudely to each other at a show in person, or to our friends and acquaintances, coworkers, etc. We'd be ostracized. But it's the internet, so we don't have to do anything but flame away, sit back, and eat some more cheetos.

All of that having been said, it really does count for something attending the shows and I wish the site leaders would try to find reviewers who were actually AT the show. I was there Saturday. It wasn't the best show ever, but I had a ton of fun regardless.

More on this from Raleigh, where I'll be in attendance and writing the review. Have fun tonight in Camden everyone.


Phish.net

Phish.net is a non-commercial project run by Phish fans and for Phish fans under the auspices of the all-volunteer, non-profit Mockingbird Foundation.
