For me, this is tale of two sets. Strawberry is a fun opener and a second place Gin is certainly welcome. Train follows that up and we are running solid but then Coil comes in and it’s really an abrupt shift down gear energy-wise. Love Coil, of course, but this was weird a spot for it and while the rest of the set is decent the boys never really seem to get back to the flow they were setting up.

Then, there’s the second set and this one is a doozy. Disease is gnarly and leads perfectly into “The Well.” Of all the newer stuff Phish has been laying out recently, this one really seems to have the potential and it proves it in its first outing. It’s incredible listening to the band pull the jam out of the depths again and again. The rest is just perfect song placement and flow, especially the Crosseyed > CDT. This set runs the gamut from the nasty to the beautiful and all kinds of spaces in between. Encore is fine and the ironic Fire in a water themed show gets a little breath for Trey to shred before sending us off.

Final thoughts - good show despite uneven first set. Like I said, set 2 is a monster! Side note - never heard “The Well” before so there was a lot of hilarity between my friends and I when we discovered they were saying that and not “Whale.” Good times overall and def a show you should give a listen, matey!
