Foam: Mike is completely lost for at least the first minute of this one. Like he completely forgot how to play the song. They hadn’t played it since 2.21.97 so I imagine they hadn’t practiced it considering all the new tunes were probably taking up all their time.
Samson Variation: Last time played, you won’t have any argument from me. >
Dirt: Standard. >
Vultures: Standard.
My Mind's Got a Mind of its Own: Standard.
Twist: Very strong Twist. Has some serious summer 97 crunch too it and that along with Page’s video games effects really packages together well. Very cool segue into… ->
Jesus Just Left Chicago: it rocks hard for sure.
Limb By Limb: Cool jam. Gets minor chord for a brief moment, feel like Page was pushing the envelope here. Pretty good jam but nothing I would ever pursue for a relisten.
Character Zero: face melter per usual.
SET 2: Julius: Trey lays way back on this one as Page leads the way on the B3. They eventually bring the house down as you would expect. >
Simple: good version, pretty last couple of minutes >
Fluffhead: Strong end shred!
Lifeboy: Standard. >
Taste: Absolutely smoked. This song was a Master Class by now.
Hello My Baby: Standard.
Frankenstein: Standard.
ENCORE: Bouncing Around the Room: Standard.
Slave to the Traffic Light: a great version. Trey’s solo is clean and inspired with a few held notes that hit hard. Would definitely recommend!
Replay Value: Twist, Julius, Taste
Summary: So far, set I is my least favorite set of the US tour. It’s choppy and uneven compared to all that had come before. Phish.net has this as 3.964/5 (139 ratings) – that seems too high. I would be good at 3.75/5.
