Start to finish, this was one of the best shows I've ever seen. It was certainly as well as I've seen them play since '98. Both sets were full of the hits. The boys still sound like they're trying to figure out what to do with the jam on Stealing Time From the Faulty Plan, but the rest of the...

A memorable and energetic show. The band and crowd fed off the naked guy's antics, cheering when he dashed onstage, and digging the chorus change - "you've got to run like a naked guy, out of control!" Lets hope naked guy didn't get in too much trouble. Somewhat Trey-heavy, which was cool with...

This show was out of control. I can't remember a show where the boys had such harmony in their singing. Page was on fire, Mike was on fire, Trey was shooting people with machine guns, and Fish laid a sick beat to it all. NAKED GUY UPDATE: I somehow got naked guys phone number and talked to...

4 years later.... still amazing. Well, I had tickets to Hampton but it was not in the cards. Luckily, still made the last show of the first tour back. Charlottesville is amazing. Went up with three buddies from Athens, GA and stayed with an old friend. Snow on the ground, great atmosphere,...

This was my first show; I started listening to Phish when I moved to Maryland and met some new friends who were really into the band. I started with live at the Roxy. I must've listened to that first disc about 5 times in a row; from how ripping the Loving Cup opener was to the strange rocking...

This was a very well played show with many bits of entertainment for the Audience as well. Phish has sliced in my soul since 93, and that night they brought the heat, the laughter, and the interwoven cohesiveness back around.

This was a damn good show. Mike's make-up solo was fantastic, and the crowd went nuts for Naked Guy! Everyone in my section was rooting for him to evade his captors. Chalkdust was awesome, one of my all time favorite songs. JPJ Arena didn't disappoint either. A great vibe, both from the band and...

New phans should keep in mind a few caveats about .Net show reviews: they're either coming from people who are still emphatically obsessed with everything about Phish (perhaps also known as noobs) or from phans who have been around the block a few times and tend to compare shows to one another...
