Everyone - I guess it's because I am a once or twice a year show-goer these days but the song rotation thing just doesn't bother me at all. I think it's a crazy criticism. They NEVER repeat a song during a 2 or 3 night "run" so this weekend at MPP was a truly amazing experience of all different songs. Throughout the band's history, though, they almost always repeated tunes every 3 or 4 shows. Trust me, I'm not attacking people here criticizing because I do it too and part of me does scratch my head with the Golden Age and BDTNL because why not throw in a different tune when there are so many greats that rarely get touched. I just want to argue the other side of the coin and say that a heavy rotation has been a part of Phish's tour approach for nearly all of their career except a handful of tours and even then, if you went back and looked at setlists, you would be surprised.

GREAT playing this weekend and I think they are enjoying playing together which will produce certain highlights the rest of the summer.
