Review by spreaditround
Wolfman's Brother: Strong as usual.
Maze: Fine version, keeps the energy going strong for sure.
Sigma Oasis: I groaned a bit as this started up, but Trey really crushes this one. Definitely worth a listen if you have not heard it.
Pillow Jets: I liked the jam in Star Lake. But the lyrics, woof. This one does nothing for me at all. Hope to not hear it again really.
Tube: Played too fast. Throw away version. >
Twist: Another throw away version. >
Harry Hood: And another throw away version, no patience. Three top shelf Phish songs played right in a row with no heart and no soul. What happened?
SET 2:
Down with Disease: Yikes, another throw away version. Straight up boring. ->
Ghost: Throwaway version. After the composed section they opt immediately for that canned bliss jam you have now heard hundreds of times. The last couple of minutes are decent.
Also Sprach Zarathustra: Short version. >
Golden Age: Derek Trucks nice, crowd goes nuts when he comes out. I thought, what a strange tune to collaborate on. But the jam is sick. Two legends trading licks and jamming like crazy. Great stuff, highly recommended. >
Everything's Right: Another awesome collaboration. Great, great stuff here. Highly recommended.
A Life Beyond The Dream: Good stuff.
First Tube: Like Golden Age, I thought this was such an odd choice. But again, they made it work and very, very well. When they team up and play the same ascending notes, it just sets SPAC on fire. Awesome!
ENCORE:
Possum: An obvious choice but strangely it wasn’t that energetic for some reason. Page’s solo was especially benign, and I don’t think I heard Derek play a rhythmic not during it.
Summary: The first half of the first set was good, but the second half was not. The first half of the second set was not good, quite vanilla and boring. Derek and Trey crushed Golden Age and Everything’s Right – awesome stuff, love it. First Tube too. The complete body of work of this show though doesn’t compete with the night before. The show is better than average because of the collaboration but the not by much. I would rate this show as a 3.7 out of 5.
Replay Value: Golden Age, Everything’s Right, First Tube.
