only went to jones beach day 3 and mansfield, but i think the third show at jones beach was def the sickest night thus far. however camden last night looks pretty good, im gonna have to listen to it.
I must say cops were f-in rediculous at both venues, little disheartening.
great phish though, almost forgot how much i love that band

only the n00bs. Especially considering they played Tweezer in the second set.
Cops are def being dick. Chill kids next to us had some jello shots in a cooler and I had some and they were delicious, meanwhile lifting my spirits. Turns out they\'re from pretty close to my digs and I know the guy from playing in different jammy bands around here. Anyway, up come the cops.
Kids ended up cuffed, searched, car searched, found like a tiny bit of nugget and threatened to send them to jail "any second" for like 20 minutes before finally just stealing their jello shots and leaving them alone.
My other friend had a friend who didn\'t get a ticket and cops said you had to chill at your car during the show. So kid gets bored and busts out a doobie, no doubt, and cops apparently just roll by but take down the license plate #.
On the way out my buddy gets his car raided by 6 cops all at once, full search, cuffed.... he had no real drugs besides a few empty weed baggies but he did have a fair amount of cash, earned on the fair and square by the way. The cops spent half an hour chewing him out, insulting him, and trying to figure out some way to **** this kid over and take his money.
I dunno, seemed like some shady powertrippin\' going on to me. Phish lot is sketch this year, and it\'s not because of the fans.
Camden was the gem.

That is why they need to require a college education for cops out there. Most western state cops have a college background and some experience in life that don\'t make them powertrip on inferiority. Definitely more chill when it comes to small stuff than the meatwads in the northeast.

Not to thread jack but it has more to do with the militarization of our police forces and an Us against them mentality.

Seems more like them against us. I would have offered the cops a jello shot if they weren\'t like about to arrest the kids next to us who had a few dozen of em. I know they got a job to do but what I\'ve seen on Phish tour so far has been over the top.
Not to mention --- best behaved Phish crowd I\'ve ever seen! So, lighten up coppers (or, light one up)..
