You walk into Foxwoods casino for a special Phish promotion: for a limited time, betting lines are availble on what will be the opening song at the first show on Friday 3/6/09.  To make things even better, it turns out that you are lucky phan #420 to the promotion, and you are handed a $100 voucher that can be used for one bet only on Phish lines.  Which of these lines do you place your bet on?  

If you then pulled $100 out of your pocket and went for seconds, which one would you bet on?

(Note: "Field" covers every other Phish original that has been previously played.  You only win $10 if you win this bet.)

AC/DC Bag seems more likely than the Curtain to me.

for what its worth, my money is on PYITE.

I have no idea what the first song is going to be. The second song will be either YEM or Reba.

The best show I ever saw them play opened with an amazing PYITE (9th row on the isle may have had something to do with it)... but from that point on, PYITE has always been the perfect opener IMO...  And when I say perfect opener, I mean for EVERY band.  I\'m at a state fair in Nebraska, and some local high school goober band is taking the stage, I\'m hoping for a rippin\' PYITE.

agreed...It just seems like ACDC would be too obvious though.

If my initial bet is from a free $100 I\'m throwing it on Any Cover song (Loving Cup). My pocket money would be bet on the Field (Carini).

If it is Fluffhead than the it is going to be a new tune that they have been working on before they get back to the classics.

Phish seems so nostalgic now.

don\'t think it will happen, but I want an ac/dc or something similar. "let\'s get down to the nitty gritty, let\'s get this show on the road"

another great one for the first show will be a horse/sitm

Field...I agree with previous statements about the PYITE opener.
