Yeah man, it was absolutely amazing down in the pit the whole second set. That Carini took me a few places for sure. Lol

Shoutout to Recently. Sorry I missed you man. By the time you got back with me I had blasted off.

[laverwater]

Glad yall had fun! Wish I was there!

Anyone find a video of MM from N1? I wanna see them trading instruments. Or any other good videos from ATL for that matter.

[SpecialAgent007]

The pit was just a blast last night. I found a little clan to groove with and we danced our asses off from start to finish. So glad I made the trip. I can see how people are going to like night 1 better, and I get it, but I still had a fantastic time last night and there were some great highlights.

I love Runaway Jim and Undermind, so the show started out great for me. Would've liked to see Jim do a bit more, but it was a fun turn all the same.

Obviously Tweezer and Carini killed. I was scared after getting the shortest Tweezer ever last summer that I'd get a limp one again, but man, it really killed. Fastest 26 minutes of the night for me; it was a fantastic ride.

I was a little "eh" when Number Line hit, but man, that song picked up some serious steam in the outro and the pit was all in singing that outro. It was honestly a cool fanbase moment. Similar to Blaze On in that sense. Singing along in the crowd makes those songs better than they are on their own. Gotta love how many people in a Phish crowd can sing along to a new song that just debuted 10 days ago or so.

Another thing I'll say is that Trey is definitely picking up his game the last couple shows. Listening to the first 4-5 shows, there were a bit too many examples of Trey completely flubbing parts, even on mainstays like Chalk Dust Torture. He was a lot tighter in Atlanta, and to me that was the one missing piece from what I've heard so far this tour. Things are really coming together now.

The thing I always try to keep in mind at this point in my life is that while I may not dig some songs that get played as much as others, if you just stay in the moment and don't let stats and preferences cloud the experience much, you're going to have a great time at a show. So I had a phenomenally great time last night, even during the songs that don't do as much for me. Going to definitely do what I can to hit the Raleigh show at this point, and then catch a plane for DC the next morning to do two nights in Columbia.

[SpecialAgent007]

Oh, and on future show notes, I'm looking for 1 Raleigh pit ticket and 2 Columbia floor tickets for both nights. Will probably end up having to track them down in a lot, but if anyone has any leads, I'd appreciate it.

[thechad90000]

Also I was very excited to get my first Theme as well. Made me extremely happy.

Last night was the party and night 1 was one of the best shows I've ever seen. Undermine was fun and I emjoyed the show. Trying not to nit pick too much but that second set was great I thought. Even the numberline raged at the end. Perfect placement of Waiting All Night.

Tweezer was fantastic and when they dropped into Sand is the reason why I see Phish



Night 1 set 2 was just grade A Phish. Probaby the best set I've ever seen them do. Never thought I'd hear a Halloween song so that was a real treat. Got my Twist!!


Overall, fun ass weekend. Got to meet up with some ants and had some killer ices coffee and Baileys courtesy of the Loving Cup!

[laverwater]

Who's going to the show tonight? And be careful in Bama, that state is absurd, buddy got arrested at Phish Oak Mtn last year.

[cjs4410]

Epic weekend - I have been seeing Phish for the better part of 20 years and the Friday night show was the among the best. If you haven't listened to the tape yet - do yourself a favor and download it! Set One lifts off from the mellow Caspian opener and really doesn't let up and felt like a set 2 for much of it the Ghost really set the stage for the rest of the nite. ... To start set 2 the KDF is one of the all time great versions and worth the price of admission alone. MM was a lot of fun Reba into the BG closer ( with a little Reba-esque whistling in the intro (not sure when BG closed set two??) was another highlight. It was sad to see the set end until the Farmhouse>Zero encore brought a satisfying end.

I consider Georgia worse. Although Tuscaloosa is pretty absurd.

happy for you bud

[AndySlash]

there's ashow tonight, right? are there any periscope links anyone wants to share? working tonight (on an off day) and could use some phish. not sure if periscopes are as common for phish as they have been for dmb or not. if not, oh well.

(edit- just realized it's a cdt time zone show, so probably not started yet, yeah?)

haven't seen phish since '12 and was hoping to do a last-minute run to alpine next weekend, but it looks like that's not in the cards for me.

Lol it was an experience for sure.

But the way, everyone should stop what they're doing and listen to last night's Tweezer. So fucking amazing.

[weller3377]

Think I'm gonna say fuck it and take two days off work and go to KC

[RAPUNZEL13]

Any good streams tonight besides lvnphish?

[weller3377]

That's all i'm seeing, but haven't looked very hard. Lotta damn chatter

Haven't spent much time in Georgia, other than ATL (Atlanta has way bigger fish to fry than partying peeps). I grew up in Memphis, and went to Ole Miss for two years before transferring abroad. MS legal system sucks too.

Having moved out here, I'm kind of shocked at how strict the South is in general. It's a free-for-all out here, as long as you don't make a scene.

[laverwater]

^ Don't mean to hate, I miss the food and hospitality. Ups and downs everywhere.

11 song first set?! That seems like a lot. Hopefully another 6 song 2nd set.

[RAPUNZEL13]

7 Below is damn nice right now.

Very good!

Great song selection tonight for the most part.

[K3nTaKa0s]

2001 into Hood. Niiiiiiice!

[DMBzilla]

Another nice show overall. The playing is excellent.

Other than WSP at Oak Mtn a few years ago, I've never heard anyone complain about shows in Alabama and haven't experienced any problems at any of the shows I've been to in the B'ham Tuscaloosa area, and I've been to 100s. In other words, your buddy probably deserved it.

awesome venue

[WidespreadMule3]

Was at Tuscaloosa last night and the energy was incredible. Had such a great time and it was a fantastic finish to the weekend.

[ryguy469]

How did you enjoy the shows going solo?

[pduncanosu]

Have pit tickets for the show on Friday in Cuyahoga Falls. Never been to this venue. Any tips on the venue or what time lots open, gates open, band comes on stage?
