WoNoFoShoDo This show is a good listen and highly danceable as well!

Energy is high in the first set with a fun Bathtub Gin (longest song in the first set).

Second set is freakin' awesome! Wave of hope is a stand out (longest song of the 2nd set) with an interesting section that sounded like Nintendo video game music from the 90's. Mega Man 2 anyone?! Leads into a very danceable bliss jam. Personally, I love a bliss jam. C'mon, Page on the baby grand, just shinning bright!? You gotta love the bliss jam. Mike's Song was funky and featured a nice chunky bass groove. (That, right there, was quite possibly the most nerdy Phish thing I have ever said.) Second set closes with a barn burning Blaze On. The last 7 mins of this song was so much fun to dance to. Same can be the said for Weekapaug in the encore- to me this was the real show closer.

It's Phish's 40th year as a band. I turned 40 this year. And by the end of this year the total number of shows I'll have seen is....39. But its really all good, I saw 7 shows in 2023! I've been listening to Phish since I was 15, and this will sound so cheesy (and maybe even pathetic ????), but when I reflect back, getting to listen to Phish really is one of the highlights of my life. And I have kids!!
