[Lexington]

one set only tho? kinda weak

get real. nothing is weaker than your show count. i thought you lived in new england now...

Looks like about 95 minutes based on setlist...

anyone else feel like guessing?

band went on at 11:45, played straight till 1:30, 2 min encore break, show ended at 1:45.

2 hours, lots of heads.
stl (inverted by the way) started the show off right. no surprise when that jam gets crazy. sleeping beauty was a tight version, but there was no spacey opening jam into it... the beginning was true to the RR version.

rufus was great... the jam started really dark, evil shit, thenall of a sudden shit started getting nuts and the peak was insane. contendr for jam of the night (go fig)

Inner glimps was well placed IMO, and great to hear sequoia\'s vocals/ growls on that tune again. tim absolutely shredded the shit out of every second of that song.

YEM was the only thing that could really take my mind off the Hamton show. they fucking nailed it!! after 8 years and 125 shows, i finally got my yem. the spacey jam in the middle was pure beauty, and the boys played the song very true to a typical live Phish version... complete with bass/drum jam> vocal jam ending. vocal jam was centered around the word "Buquebus". EPIC!!!

the first jam in queeb was so sick. really untzy and a crazy orgasm to go into the second half of the song. really well played and just badass. again, it had to be good to keep my mind from what i had just missed in virginia, and after the first jam i was almost back to denouncing phish... ntd

the jam into SOS was quite decieving. i usually base my song guessing on adrians drum beat, and so right off the bat i was certain the song was mayfly. funky as fuck. then it started getting all latin-y (i almost called klout to tell him they were playing landlady..ntd) and i swore it was gonna be synergy. then after some crazy shit the drums got real fast and became the signiature SOS opening jam. what can i say, the only place north of DC worth being last night. thanks dudes

adrian, wtf happened to your cymbal?

dangle, stop fucking up all the songs!!!

o yea, strat last night. ser biz.

Saw that coming.

[spance]

I don\'t post much but I have to say this because it\'s plainly obvious to me...this band now (with Jordan again) reminds me of what I feel in love with 8 or 9 years ago. My 2nd show was 1/19/01 @ Husky Blues and hands down by the end of the night I knew I had just seen the greatest band ever...and I still believe that to this day. It\'s only fitting that they broke out YEM last night cause if you look at the setlist from 1/19/01 it\'s in there. Devo getting up there and doing "Special Secret Song Inside", jumping all over the place...i\'m like, "who are these people and why are they so good at what they\'re doing?" This is only my opinion and your mileage may vary but, I think once people started using the word "doozie" to describe a show because noone was there just changed things. My favorite shows from \'01, \'02 were in dives with very few people except the die hard fans and they were...to me, some of the greatest nights of my life. Listen to the beginning of 1/19/01 and Timmy says, "plenty of dance floor people, plenty of dance floor.", by the end of the night I, and most of the rest who were there were soaking wet from dancing so hard. They just had this "thing" about them back then, an innocence of sorts. Well, after watching the videos from Sully\'s I see it again...I havn\'t been to many shows lately but i\'ve listened to just about every show that\'s on archive.org or video that\'s on youtube (seriously guys...thank you so much for continuing to record them...you know who you are) and I havn\'t seen them look that happy in awhile. Again, I could be wrong but like someone said...shit just fits like a glove. Some of my favorite memories have been at PB, TB shows...dancing my ass off in a torrential downpour to one of my favorite Sundances of all time (I know, I know...that\'s a bold statement) at the Yasgur Road Reunion show in \'04 after driving down from a vacation in upper state VT, not even knowing if we\'d find the place or if they had already played and we get there at like 1am to hear the opening notes of Attraction (1st song of the set...and I mean we were driving around for hours trying to find the place.) Then after the show realizing that we were gonna have to sleep in the car because the mud so bad you couldn\'t go anywhere. I remember my girlfriend was crying so hard cause we were soaked and filthy and I just said fuck this...drove straight through a field in her little VW Golf...not knowing if there were boulders or what cause the grass was so tall and then eventually getting out...we ended up at a hotel at 4am somewhere in or near Bethel, NY and the only room available was the honeymoon suite...oh yeah, hot tub and all. Or the night after a show at La Cocina in Pittsfield, MA when I stayed at a motel with the band and there was a heart shaped hot tub that nobody would get into because Adrian had been soaking in it...and getting up the next morning and eating breakfast with them at a nice little diner in downtown Pittsfield and bugging Timmy for the meanings of certain songs. I wish I would of had enough money back then to have been able to go to every show and help unload and load all of the equipment cause that was all I wanted to do...but life is cruel I guess. Sorry this went on so long but this what happens when you never post. I can\'t say this enough...never take these guys for granted and enjoy every fucking note because THEY ARE SPECIAL!!! oh and one more, Adrian trying to teach me Eschers on acoustic in his mom\'s basement while he played bass...before the band broke it at Hawks Nest in late \'01. I couldn\'t even come close to doing it justice...but being there the night when they first played it and knowing it already was pretty neat. All I know is I can\'t wait to see them in Hartford next week...and knowing that Ron\'s gonna be in the house makes it that much better. I havn\'t met Chris yet or heard him in person (only saw them with Matt once or twice) but i\'ll tell you this...he\'s doing a great job and "I" think he fits right in. Take it slow peoples...life is shorter then you think.

[Klout]

right on spance. have fun in hartford!

[Spunk]

destiny unbound is a shitty lame song

[spance]

I agree Spunk...but just like on 3/19/95 (day before my 18th? b-day) when I was lucky enough to be at the Spectrum in Philly when the Dead broke out Unbroken Chain for the first time...the place became electric (only two things can really make me cry happy tears, listening to the crowd going crazy when they first played Unbroken Chain...after Jerry had died and The Breakfast...first time PB/TB made me cry was a few years ago, I was listening to 8/23/03 and the tranny from Echidnas into Food For Thought made me so fucking proud of them at the time that I just lost it...I felt like such a bitch) Same thing at New Years 02-03 when Phish came back from there "hiatus"...the place was bouncing so fucking hard I thought we were all done for. I actually still have the PB shirt that Kroop gave me so I could represent at that show, I was literally right behind Fish the whole night. I still have an original first edition (I think) PB shirt...has PB on the front with a face and it says Psychedelic Breakfast on the back with a puppet hanging by strings. But anyway, back to Destiny Unbound...yeah, it\'s nothing special other then it hadn\'t been played live since \'91 or \'92...I was at Sugarbush \'95 when they busted out Camel Walk after 500 and something shows and that was way more enjoyable. I still love late \'71 through \'74 Dead the most though with \'01-\'02 PB taking a close second and \'93, \'94, \'95, \'97 Phish taking third...if I had to pick a Phish year i\'d probably pick \'95. Best Reba\'s came from \'95 IMNSHO. Part of me has always wanted the boys to make it big so they don\'t have to struggle but if they became as big as The Dead or Phish were/are...would they still be the same? I guess only time will tell. Take care

[Ren]

destiny is not lame, i\'m sorry it just isn\'t.  not much better imo in the early days than that first riff when landlady would go into it.  just perfect.

[tyzack]

I was extremely underwhelmed by the two opening bands, but was relieved to see that most of the fans stayed around.

The Breakfast pnwd, see the light was great, the rufus jam was spacey and dark, then cool and dancing.

YEM - enough said.

\'Quebe, dug it, i wonder when they will finish it.

What was the jam going into the encore? I thought i heard a couple of different songs teased before sos.

[tyzack]

145 paid...i had fun and it was pretty ser.part of me wanted to be in va but thats life.thanx to the people who came out to pawty!

oh,and it was taped.

...any idea when the tapes will be up?
.......i really want to hear that YEM again, and then x-post it on phish boards because from my memory of the song, they nailed it.

[thatguy]

todd got his info.he can tell u more.
