Pinhead_Larry Writing this as I’m arriving back at my air b ‘n b. What a great Saturday show. And as always, phish switch up their act to keep us on our toes. Where Friday saw phish delving into deep water territory with unbelievable improv, Saturday brings us the band in a much more optimistic and care-free summertime fashion. Not that they didn’t stop to take some songs out for a ride. Everything’s Right is the first up to break new territory (and I believe also the longest to date?). The WTU turned the crowd sentimental. Everyone in a quiet awe while band brought it down to 1 (again, as opposed to yesterday’s 11). My gf, who had her 3rd show tonight said WTU? seems like a song that would have been played in a sappy Twin Peaks scene, and now that I’ve pictured it, I can’t not hear it any other way lol. The >Crosseyed> WTU(!!!) came in to wake us up and turn the lawn into dance floor. And finally, Disease takes us to church. I lost track of the time, but it felt like Trey sustained that note for 2-3 minutes.

In summation, this is a damn fine show. Yesterday’s show has spoiled many fans. And tonight’s is a sort of “yang” to last night. Everything felt right. Phish in 2021 are training for a marathon, and tonight was the light run. Stay kind and stick around because this band is doing things.
