We've been pretty spoiled in these last couple weeks, and I think a large number of people might have expected Reading to be forgotten quickly as the tour went on to AC. Nope. Set II here is one of the finest of the year, right up there with Hampton3 and the best of summer. The Twenty Years...

oh. my. gawd. 2nd row. so what if it was behind the stage. trey took a longer than usual solo in cars trucks and buses, and faulty planned was a scorcher. great tight versions of ginseng, sparkle, walk away , divided sky and Julius. trey did a fun...

This was as good a 'Trey' show as any in the 3.0 era...and I think the best so far this year. It was his night to shine and he took us on some wonderful journeys. Can't wait to re-listen. Highlights: DWD, 20 Years, Divided,YEM, Reba, GTBT, and everything else they played. Wasn't a single bad...

For me, this was show #87 on my list, and the very first one in my hometown. I had this feeling coming into the show that the boys would do something special tonight, and man did they ever (CK5 included!) I didn't hear one missed note the entire night, and when it seemed like a couple jams were...

Best music of the tour yet in my opinion... wolfmans funky and an inspiring walk away jam... divided sky was nailed and the jam, breathtaking...soam is awesomely sinister... dwd is a psychedelic gorgeous soundscape (heavy improved throughout with hose segments), taste was a treat... twenty years...

Dancing and raging, my first Phish show I'm from France and after listing to Phish for 16 years with attending a show, I finally been able to make the trip the USA on October 29th 2013. Lights switched off. Speakers muted. People screaming. Phish coming on stage for the first time in...

Live streamed this one so my viewpoint is from the comfort of my home as opposed to having been in the arena. But even so, wow oh wow was this quite a show. With the exception of one little blip in Rochester, this band has been on fire since Hampton III, and especially since Worcester. Fall 2013...

I would like to point out that Mike briefly used his power drill during the DWD intro. I could see it from my spot in sec. 102. This was one HELL of a show, and my first indoor. CTB opener was unexpected and awesome. Seemed like a kind of "Hey thanks for driving out to READING to see us! We're...

Set 1: Perfectly fine for the Fall tour; Wolfman's has a ridiculous sustained note by Trey, Walk Away makes an appearance (which always bumps a set up a notch in my book), the Divided Sky is cool if a bit wanting compared to Hampton's, and SOAM wallows in atonal weirdness (maybe a bit too long)...

It would be easier to review a Beiber show. Because I cannot even describe what I listened to last night. The band is playing with a you ain't seen nothing yet vibe, and it's just crazy. I don't know what happened during the vocal jam, but I'm still trying to find my face. After watching...

Notable Jam Chart Performances

Individual jam chart entries from this venue:

2013-10-29 Down with Disease (21:20) Set 2 Noteworthy
An excellent, multi-section jam begins dark and stormy, then starts grooving in a very upbeat manner with growing energy. After letting the "HOSE" run for several minutes, the jam methodically cycles down.
2013-10-29 Twenty Years Later (14:22) Set 2 Noteworthy
The jam breaks away from the standard around 7:45, passing through a "The Birds"-like jam before becoming funky and rocking with some great Page B-3 action. The jam brightens in sentiment briefly before > to "Piper."
2013-10-29 Divided Sky (15:38) Set 1
The jam has a really nice and gentle beginning, with almost a late-'90s vibe, then builds to a solid peak.
Intricate jam segment where the band members play off each other quite well, and a decent peak to the jam.
