These guys are on fire, sounding like a mix from early jamming 90's with the funk of 98. Supposedly last nights DWD was the straight out of 92. Cant wait to listen.

 
what's the best live download of the summer tour so far for ridiculous jamming? not too heavy on the funk, please. TIA

You have to listen to the Tweezer first into No Quarter. Simply mind blowing

DWD was 6/3. Tweezer/No Quarter was 6/1. Which show is better to DL if you only have a few bucks?

6/3 is by far the better show. That Disease is a face-melter.They should be firing on all cylinders by the time I see them Friday.

:confused: You can get both shows (and any 2011 shows) for free via the "No Spoilers" podcast I linked earlier.No need to spend a penny.
 
we thought Steam was by far the weakest song of the night. Piper was also disappointing. but on the flip side, the Sneaking Sally and the Possum were especially interesting to listen to. and the whole first set was flawless. i think they are as tight as ever and doing an amazing job of listening to each other.

:thumbup: New to thread, hadn't caught that. Thanks for the heads up. DL'ing as we speak.
 
Alot of links on this page to rummage thru later. Sucks I had to miss out on my local show. I drove past all the Blossom exits during the show on my way back from the beach...

 
The Sneaking Sally from Blossom might be even better than the 6/3 DWD. Last night's show was incredible as well.

Beyond pumped for Camden tomorrow.

Blossom Recap

Phish.net

Anticipation could not have been higher heading into Phish's 6/4/11 show at the Blossom Music Center. The night before in Clarkston they had raised the bar for the tour (and, arguably, 3.0) with one of their strongest start-to-finish sets in recent memory. Was that going to be the new "normal" or just a fortunate aberration?

After the first set, the jury was still out. The set included a little bit of everything: well played versions of composed numbers like "Guyute" and Foam," energetic versions of rockers "Kill Devil Falls" and "Antelope," a return to the Little Feat catalog with "Rocket In My Pocket," and even the aural monstrosity that is "#### Your Face." Still, while everything was played well, they never really left the confines of any single song.

That all changed in Set II. The set opened with the first "Birds" of 2011. "Birds" has become something of a rarity these days, so expectations were high for a second set opening version. Alas, it was a pretty ordinary performance. When the band dropped into "Possum," many fans probably groaned (to themselves, anyway). Perhaps no song has been as overplayed in recent years without really going anywhere interesting as "Possum." of course, in true Phish fashion, the band responded with probably the most interesting and creative version of "Possum" since the mid-'90s.

The ashes of "Possum" melted into the first original debut of 2011 with "Steam." The new Anastasio/Marshall composition with lyrics that recall the Game of Thrones book/TV series (or so I'm told) and a steamy cymbal effect from Fish, "Steam" may have more jamming potential than any new song since "Light." A brief "Piper" followed which segued into the now-rare "Lizards."

What followed will be known in Phish lore as When Harry Met Sally and is a simply outstanding 30 minutes of music. The "Sally" jam is sublime. All four band members are locked in and the result is a truly unique, must-hear jam. "Sally" melted into a "Harry" -> "Have Mercy" -> "Hood" that is simply majestic. Trey wove the "Have Mercy" theme throughout the "Hood" jam finishing off a set that is among the best of 3.0. I prefer the previous night's second set somewhat, but which one you like better probably depends more on the style of set you prefer. The fact that the "Slave" encore is reduced to near-footnote status speaks to its greatness. If I'm giving a rating to this show it's probably a 7.0, a notch above Bethel2 earned almost entirely on the basis of the second set. But seriously, ignore the number. The important part is that the second sets from Pine Knob and Blossom are the two best sets in 2011 IMO and would hold up in any era of Phish.

Oh lordy. Gonna have to track down that Sally>Harry this weekend. Watched the DWD from 6/3 and it was sweetness.
 
got my first Sanity last night after 50 shows. the Sand from set one last night is a must-listen but i thought the prior night at Merriweather was better than last night.

there really is no debating that this is the best touring band in the world right now. after Return to Forever with Zappa plays Zappa kicks off their US tour in August, i might rethink that claim. but, man, is Phish tight.

Took me a LONG time to for Sanity to come my way (Lemonwheel) - congrats!
 
Camden was a disappointing show but both MPP shows were excellent. Last night's show was particularly strong with the Wolfmans>Boogie On funkasaurus.

 
Harpua opener tonight. work always seems to get in the way of getting to the shows i want to see. anyone make it to this father's day performance? the setlist looks juicy all the way through. i am a big fan of Walls of the Cave, myself.

There is simply no argument you could make that Phish is not the greatest rock and roll band around these days. You can even debate, all things considered, that they are the best band of all time. Considering fan interaction, ticket prices, talent, etc.

It's obviously a lot easier to be a fan friendly band in today's age of technology than in years past. That being said, Phish is clearly at the forefront of the total fan experience. I think Pearl Jam is pretty good to its fans, but they don't touch where Phish is IMO. :thumbup:
