Dick's shows were not the best of tour in my opinion. I happen to think Chula Vista was the top show of the summer. But then again . . .

I call it like it is when I see Phish and I just cannot understand why there is so much negative talk about summer tour. The only thing I can attribute to it is us Phish fans not being OK with anything other than what we want to hear. I say "we" because I've been guilty of it many times. However, I'm just as satisfied with a show with incredibly tight playing and couple 15 minute jams, tightly played with beautiful peaks, as I am with a 30 minute stretched out version of a song. Frankly, I don't care how long the jam is as long as it's locked in and takes me to the musical place where Phish tends to. To say the band wasn't communicating well etc. this tour to me just says that you're disconnected from the energy the band is trying to deliver on stage. I thought they were incredibly connected, on point, and high energy. I bet they would disagree with you firmly. I thought there were a few more stand out shows last summer but I thought this summer delivered excellently in a much more high octane kind of way. I'm not gonna waste my time naming all the jams I thought were phenomenal this summer because the negative nancies on here are convinced of their own opinions already. To each his/her own.
