EMU, thanks for putting my feelings out there too. Being an old DeadHead, I too didn't understand phish when I 1st heard them in 1993. In 2001 my buddy gave me Vegas 96, and Va. beach 98 tapes. I knew I needed to check the boys out when they came back from hiatus. Last night was only my eighth show, but best ever for me. My wife's 2nd and we were in pit 10 ft. from stage. At 30 years in the boys are still pushin forward. I've been here b4 We all need to be Grateful.
