Wow just got back from playing Gratefulfest and the past few nights look great, can’t wait, just got the SBD’s dl’d
My Girlfriends aunt and uncle went last night for the first time since the late 90’s and had a blast, I wish I could have done this whole tour

i went into the week with a strong feeling that this would be one of the best shows of the tour. the Sleeper!

the discussion on the way to the show regarding what the opener would be:

ME: I know i say this every other show but i really think tonight is the night for Buried Alive.

my brother: I’m thinking AC/DC Bag.

ME: No. Buried Alive>Bag.

I’ve never called an opener so hard before. And then the energy just never stopped. Everything was just on fire the whole night.

highlights for me were the whole fucking show. But especially The Lizards, FUCK YOUR FACE for the first time in 23 years!, and YEM.

This show was an amazing time for me because it contained so many first times and ones that i was dying to hear taboot. This second set was so great partly because of the amazing setlist and also because i rocked it with one of my best friends that i grew up with. We had always dreamed of seeing Phish someday together because we were too young when they were still around. And not only did we rock this set together but we got a FUCK YOUR FACE, a Drowned, a Carini, And a Lizards. I had never in my life thought that Phish would ever play Fuck your Face again much less at a show i was at.

#6

what’s Trey teasing early on in the YEM jam?? sounds so familiar

#7

I think he’s teasing Fuck Your Face.

Great YEM. Perfect way to cap that unbelievable set

#8

big wheel keep on turnin’…

#9

There is a moving in stereo tease and a FYF tease.

#10

i really think this could be front-runner for best YEM of 3.0

really some serious SERIOUS shreddin and the vocal jam was top notch, more creative than most any in the last year+

#11

not to mention that it came at the perfect time and was executed perfectly.

#12

I want Brad to note this, because it was the funniest thing in a while.

Early in the day on Juily 2nd, 2010 whilest pulling into Charlottes lot, I got a text from Brad Tube #47, as it reads on my phone.

We exchanged texts about him not being there and lots of laughs. He said something about the Lizards they were going to play that night.

My reply text was, and I quote, “I HEARD WE’RE DUE FOR A FUCK YOUR FACE”

to which he replied with an “LOL”

I have the proof in my phone still and maybe he does too.

I LOVE PHISH

^ 100% truth. that was hilarious and so damn awesome.

my reaction to seeing FYF pop up on the set list, while it was “OMFG WTF BITCH!”… it was also, “Of course they did”… that was my initial reaction in a way because that type of happenstance or weird coincidence, whatever you wanna call it, is a regular occurence while being an intense phish fan.

the power of the collective mind? maybe. the power of two idiots joking through text messages? hell yes.

#14

Amazing Vultures.

#15

Highway bill was saying fuck your face that whole day. Of course we were laughing at the thought. They just seem to surprise me everytime I see them. Great show One i soon wont forget.

#16

#17

Where are the drugs?! Fuck my face? Fuck your face!

#18

#19

46 Days, Carini>FYF and YEM are pure bliss. This is a great show, just finished listening to the SBD for the first time. I think this show is just as good as what happened in GA. 2010 >>>>>>>2009
