"That doesn't mean we will always recap the show from home rather than from the show itself; we reserve the right to mix things up. But if you attended the show and had your face melted clean off your skull and you want your experience validated in flowery, gushing prose, or feel that objective descriptions of a given performance might somehow diminish your experience, the Phish.net recap may not be your bag. There are certainly other sites you can depend on to deliver that kind of take (some of which I read and enjoy regularly myself)."

I dont like this. Everyone has the right to make their comment about the show? If someone wants to share the fact that the band stole their face, some might find that offensive or childish, but others might think that is fun and exciting ( or even just comical). basically I feel that everyone has the right to recap and if you dont like what is said simply move on to the next comment but maybe out of the billions on this planet there are people that like that comment that you didnt like. essentially I feel there should be all kinds of reviews.

I am not sure I understand your comment.

Did you misconstrue the column as some condemnation of experiential or subjective reviews? Because I can point to at least several sentences that should have tipped you off that this was not my point at all.
