Review by spreaditround

spreaditround SET 1:

Funky Bitch: Standard.

Ya Mar: Fun tease and it gets a bit interesting towards the end.

Carini: Standard.

Runaway Jim: Standard.

Meat: Standard. >

Reba: Fantastic. Has two mini themes that I love. Classic Reba that I would recommend.

The Old Home Place: Standard.

Dogs Stole Things: Standard.

Vultures: Has some neat ambient passages that set it apart from a typical version.

When the Circus Comes: Standard.

Birds of a Feather: Standard.

SET 2:

Buried Alive: Standard. >

Wipe Out: Set just got interesting. >

Chalk Dust Torture -> Mirror in the Bathroom -> Chalk Dust Torture: So great. Absolute classic. Would recommend!!! ->

Dog Log: Standard. Standard. The bluesy stuff doesn’t do enough for me to want to rec it ->

Chalk Dust Torture: Fun stuff. >

Sanity: Standard. >

Buffalo Bill: Extreme minor chord jam at the end, it’s so loose it sounds like a sound check. I would recommend this just for that aspect. >

Mike's Song: Loops to kick the jam give me goosebumps. ->

I Am Hydrogen: Best ever. For real. Deep space intro with effects. Highly recommended. >

Weekapaug Groove -> Wipe Out -> Weekapaug Groove > Weekapaug Groove Reprise: Easy, easy all timer. Machine gun Trey in the regular piece of the song. Another Wipe Out goof. And then a serious Type II jam complete with tons of reverse reverb and various effects. Get your head space right for this one and it will take you to the moon. >

Run Like an Antelope: Smoking! Trey outdoes himself towards the end. Great stuff.

ENCORE:

Wading in the Velvet Sea: Crushed, just absolutely nailed. Sounds like the version from the Ghost album. Trey is soaring!! Highly recommended, one of the best live versions ever.

Golgi Apparatus: Standard. >

Wipe Out: They had to do this!

Summary: This show is pretty sick. The first set is quite tame and that is what separates me from the super high rating on .net. The second set is very Phishy – Wipe Out!!! - and a whole lot of fun. Weekapaug is just nasty. 4.2/5

Replay Value: Reba, Chalk Dust Torture, Mirror in the Bathroom, Chalk Dust Torture, Dog Log, Buffalo Bill, I am Hydrogen, Weekapaug Groove, Wading in the Velvet Sea
