I feel that very little of 2000 Phish is underrated, because many of those shows have been heard and highly rated already. But 9/11/00 Great Woods is an anomaly - I fail to understand what it is about this show that causes its rating to be lower than others from this year. Is there an anti-Great Woods bias reflected in ratings for shows at that venue? Too many other JadedVets with folded arms and scowling faces, disappointed that the band didn't throw down a 30-minute Tweezer, or bust out a sweet Foam?

Personally, I find that I have to be "in the mood" to listen to a show from 2000, even the top-tier shows like 6/14 Fukuoka or 7/11 Deer Creek. But 9/11 Great Woods is the exception; ever since I downloaded this show from the Spreadsheet and spun it, I've felt that this was a remarkably strong show. The Road Runner opener boosts my opinion a lot; one of those goofy one-off covers that some folks find distracting, but I feel are essential to the modus operandi of live Phish.

The other reviews cover the highlights, particulary in @waxbanks' succinct show review, including a hot Moma Dance and a cool Twist that arguably deserve addition to the jamming charts. I also think highly of the first set versions of Brian And Robert and Beauty Of My Dreams, the latter benefiting from Mike stepping in for Trey's usual solo. I rank this show among my favorites from the Fall 2000 tour.
