#2

Solid first set. KDF had a nice jam. Below average Moma I would say. Same with Rift. Wolfmans Brother brought back some energy however. During Lawn Boy and Party Time it is obvious the band is having fun and pleased to be playing at Jazz Fest. Ocelot, Funky Bitch and 46 Days are all OK. The Line I am still not sold on. And an average Character Zero to finish the set.

All in all, kind of a forgetful set.

#3

Grind was on point.

#4

Much better second set.

Down With Disease starts it off really well, and the segue into Birds of Feather is fantastic. Really liked the Birds tease in the beginning of Twist. Solid Sparkle, lackluster combo of Free and Light in my opinion.

Sand was excellent however. Harry Hood started really strong, but the middle section was just not there for me. Seemed like Trey wasn’t too interested in this one. Strong Cavern and Grind to close the show. Standard Julius to close.

Highlights of the show: DWD>BOAF, Sand.

Straight forward Phish, nothing too special, nothing horrible.
