Dude I understand that your reviews are just your opinion, but ALL your reviews tend to be somewhat negative. I also understand that everyone hears music differently, but you may want to take a look at why you always come off as negative or unhappy. Maybe your an overall unhappy person I dont know, but when posting reviews to the mass public you may want to curtail your overall negativity with some or a little positive words. If you are consistanly unhappy with Phish's music as of late why do you bother to attend anymore? It just really doesnt make any sense to me. I'm not trying to attack you, just trying to point out that your posts are an extention of you, and it seems you've got some issues you need to deal with b/c your always, and I mean always negative. Even of things are not that great, try to put some positive spin on them just a little, your reviews just always appear to be a debbie downer, just trying to help bud. Something you may want to take a deeper look at. ?Your in control of your own destiny, you can lead a happy life or not, just change your perspective a little and be a little more responsible with your opinions since this reaches a large audience.

Well said. I have noticed this trend lately myself. Much like Mr. Miner's reviews. Both seem to focus on something that they find to be 'missing' or 'lacking' with their assessment of Phish 3.0.
It's Phish. They are an improvisational, jam band. They have the right in that context and format to experiment, make flubs, and be 'not exactly perfect' everytime they play a song. If you are looking for prefect replication of songs---- I suggest you find a different band to follow! (I hear Madonna does a good job of repeating the same show night after night)
