SET 1: Ghost: Don’t let the length on this one fool you. It means serious business and makes that known early on. >

Ya Mar: Trey’s staccato picking is absolutely fantastic. At 11 minutes in this is taking a distinctly summer 97 left hand turn. All timer Ya Mar right here! >

Dogs Stole Things: Standard.

Limb By Limb: What a four headed monster this jam is in the early going, just unbelievable. Just after 8 minutes it sounds like this one is going to wrap. Not so fast my friend. That slight fake out leads to a brief inspired jam and then the actual wrap up with Mike sounding amazing and of course Fish doing his thing. Great version!

Dirt: Absolutely perfect. >

Maze: Trey’s solo is extra-long. Solid Maze but nothing too crazy here.

Glide: Solid.

Saw It Again: Standard.

You Enjoy Myself: Absolutely incredible, full band jamming is just exceptional. The jamming that starts in the mid to late 11’s is just so odd and unique. It screams summer 97 weirdness. The Santa Comes to Town stuff is brilliant and fits like a glove. This entire jam is an assault on the senses. Truly brow beating in the best manner possible. Likely tough to handle on a strong headful.

SET 2: Runaway Jim: Little Sweet Home Alabama tease in the intro here. Trey guides the jam into a funky place starting at 7:36, lots of pornofunk type stuff, very cool. This really only lingers for a couple of minutes and by about ten and a half minutes the band is working itself into a very hard driving/rocking jam. Great pace to this as well. Transition into a gorgeous major key jam in the early 12 minute mark. Things are getting very summer 97 in the early 15’s – lots of psychedelic craziness led by Trey. Much like that segment in YEM, this is another assault on the senses. Hang in there phanners! By the late 20’s this one is gradually mellowing out into a nice mellow groove and a couple minutes finds itself segueing nicely into ->

When the Circus Comes: Standard.

Vultures: Standard.

McGrupp and the Watchful Hosemasters: Standard. >

Mike's Song: Page is fantastic in the midsection. Very bluesy playing on the baby grand, just beautiful. This eventually finds itself in a very dark and ominous place with Page ramping up a big wall of effects for a moment or two that is a perfect backdrop to what Trey is directing. ->

I Am Hydrogen: Listening closely it’s insane to me how good Trey sounds on this. You can almost see the notes, lol. That tone is so clean and beautiful. >

Weekapaug Groove: Pretty standard. But the Happy Birthday tease, Trey’s sincere nod to Jerry and brief speech about keeping his spirit alive through the music and the Can't You Hear Me Knocking jam is all super cool.

ENCORE: Cinnamon Girl – Standard.

Replay Value: Ya Mar, Limb By Limb, You Enjoy Myself, Runaway Jim, Mike's Song

Summary: Just a killer show! Ya Mar and Jim I have down as all timers and the YEM and Mike’s are extremely good. The rest of the show is very solid, and the energy is explosive as the band meant business right from the opening notes of Ghost. Love this show and agree with the current rating from Phish.net of 4.497/5 (193 ratings).
