Now that we have this 2019 Fall Run in the rearview mirror, I think Nassau must be at the top, certainly in the top 2. All in all, it was a lovely little tour and brings us all a new chapter in "the Phish from Vermont," as Trey giddily remarked to the crowd to end the Charleston weekend. Say what you will about that show, who in their right mind would see a "Chalkdust Reprise" coming? That Plasma bit to close it all out made me laugh on the way to work on a miserably raining Monday in New York, and who but this band could do that? I kept thinking about how nuts it was to be like "show's over," and the BOOM - a few measures of "Plasma." WTF, Phish???

For all the new Phish we got in the 2018-19 creative spurt (Kasvot, numerous tunes not on Big Boat, GOTF, Vida Blue, Mike's band) Nassau has some of my personal favs in "Everythings Right," "Ruby Waves" and "SANTOS." Top that with maybe the best bust-out of the tour (all 2019??) in a thoughtful ode to Lou Reed, along with some classic 80s Phish and you've got a winner. Coming out of the gate with Ghost-Rift bliss for nearly 20 minutes and inserting a smoking hot "Tube" in the first set also sends this show into the tops of the tour. Certainly a strong contender for best set of the tour IMO. Anyways, not much to say about the closer. Soul Planet. Yep, we're all riding on one! Can't wait for MSG and wish everybody the best in the holiday season!!
