I would just like to say hooray for phish. Their return to greatness as been an absolute joy to experience. I started this summer thinking that i would not make ut to any shows, but 5 shows later they proved to me without a shadow if a doubt that they arent fucking around. It saddens me that i will miss 8, but i know that there will be many many more shows to experience, and that my friends is what its all about. Long live the phish. The kings are back on their throne.

Well done again Dave.

Thanks to everyone who I ran into this weekend for contributing to what was a truly outstanding time.  Nothing like being in a crowd of 30K and feeling right at home. You\'re all top notch.

also shout to the kid from mass who was rocking a breakfast hat parked next to us..


that would have been me :wave:

last night was very good, but hartford takes it. Crazy storm on the way into the venue.....pretty much sucked and turned the place into a giant mud pit. The balcony is the best place to see phish every.


You saved my show last night more than you could ever know. The magic water bottle in your pocket was the life line I need. Hydrate.

Being in the balcony before the rain started was the key to me having so much fun last night.

SPAC was a lot of fun and it was great to get a few special bust outs. Llama could have been stretched but after 3 days of begging for it, it finally happened. First set was the biz while the 2nd just closed my summer vacation.

Thanks to everyone who made this weekend so special and one of the best Phish runs I have experienced. Thanks to those who I never saw either. You gave me motivation to get to the next show.


anytime....thanks for the dry stuff, that storm got everything I had soaking wet

Agreed, if I was on the lawn. SPAC balcony or pavilion seats are the place to be. Lawn is not worth the drive. The super long walks between lots is not either but makes for some nice exercise.

Glad we were able to assist each other. Best call of the day was Stephengencs saying "let\'s go in and get to out seats" around 7. Wouldn\'t even have known it was raining if it wasn\'t for the girl in front of us saying so.

I\'m sure the balcony was sweet, but the lawn was great too.   We were in early (7:15ish) and were able to find cover during the rainstorm and then immediately move to a great lawn spot when the rain had ended.  Perfect spot on the lawn with great site lines and audio.  SPAC was the only show in \'09 I had lawn seats for, but it is my favorite lawn so I was very happy where we ended up.

Walk to the car was short and we were quickly out with basically no traffic

Have never seen a show from SPAC lawn. If I ever do, I\'ll make sure you guide me. It has never really appealed to me.

The venue to the car was super quick and we got out right away. Walking to other peoples cars on the other side of the venue was more of a walk. Maybe it was the humidity.

the lawn sucks if you don\'t get a good spot. can\'t see a thing from most of the lawn.

watching the glowstick war from the ramp going to the balcony was insane

wasn\'t able to make a comment about this weekend yesterday because it took all of the strength in my body to not look like a complete freakshow at work after getting 2 and a half hours of sleep.

there is nothing left for me to say about hartford that hasn\'t already been said. i couldn\'t have been happier with the show.

i really didn\'t think that the lawn situation at spac was that bad. obviously, i would have liked to have been in the pavillion, but we did find a good spot where we were able to see and the sound was excellent.

it was so great to run into so many of you guys over the weekend. thanks to everybody along the way who made the last few days so much fun. can\'t wait to do it again!!

Sugar Shack is my favorite new Phish tune. Darien Lake confirmed this.

I never thought I would see the day when Andy Gadiel\'s Phish Page was be active again.

Does anyone know the capacity of the Empire Polo Club? Heard many different numbers. 36,000 and 50,000 and some as high as 90,000. Don\'t see more than 45,000 people attending but who knows what happens now that the Summer Tour is over.

Highlights from Sunday include Anything But Me, Harpua, 5 for 20 post show gas, and giving The Dago a fist pump as he was riding up front in his bus as he drove past us in parking lot traffic round 3:30ish....

completely forgot about the 5 for 20 deal.

don\'t forget Page on Bus 1 with some lady. Definitely cool to see them excited about getting to the venue.
