ProfessorDude I thought that this was a fair review, and I appreciated Icculus's frankness in discussing what he took to be the weaker, as well as the stronger, aspects of the show as he experienced them. I want to dissent on just one point, however. The idea that the band, or its management, made the stream freely available in response to the fans who denounced the violence at the Gorge, is just laughably naive. Phish has a history of freebies going back to Amy's Farm and coming all the way down to the present with Live Bait releases and the occasion free webcast. I'd personally like to see the band make a public statement about the attacks on people of color at the Gorge, but that free webcast wasn't it; wasn't meant to be it; and shouldn't be taken as it.
