Notes: The first letters of the songs of this show spelled out “Fuck Your Face” before Fuck Your Face itself was played. Before You Enjoy Myself, Page said, “We’re so happy to be here, we love this place, we really do…We love Dick’s”. Trey and the band then led the crowd in a “We Love Dick’s” chant. During the You Enjoy Myself vocal jam, “We Love Dick’s” theme emerged with such lines as, “Page loves Dick’s, Mike loves Dick’s, Trey loves Dick’s, the band loves Dick’s”. Ocelot included a Crosseyed and Painless tease. Prior to the second set, Trey wished Matty from the Waterwheel table a Happy Birthday. Runaway Jim and Chalk Dust were unfinished. Emotional Rescue was played for the first time since September 30, 2000 (236 shows). Fuck Your Face contained an Emotional Rescue quote.

#8

Wow. That’s what you call setting the bar high. That was seriously Phish at the top of their game. So many amazing jams, even Farmhouse and Alaska jammed. Can’t wait for tonight.

#9

That Undermind jam was epic!

#10

Fuck Your Face anagram + “We <3 Dicks” + Grind + Meatstick = most perverted Phish show ever?

#11

We all love DICK’S!!! :thumbup:

#13

Holy fucking, face fucking dicks, fucking shit!

#14

I am really looking forward to hearing this show!

#15

those in attendance, at what point did y’all realize that they were spelling out Fuck Your Face? or did you at all during the show?

don’t know if I would’ve caught on during the show or not

#16

Not only is this show special for the whole FYF thing - they are on absolute fucking fire

Every song is tight - every jam is loose - every segue is smooth

I’ve been listening to this show all day, this leg 2 is right up there with Fall '10 if not above

#17

Last night was why I still chase these fools. And to answer Levi’s question I got it at YEM.

#18

^speaking like a true vet

#19

Can only speak from couch tour/ internets. The realization of anything began and carini and thought that they might spell fuck as soon as yem happened we though fuck you. With runaway jim we thought they might spell fuck you romney but at the beginning of farmhouse the consensus was that they were spelling fuck your face. The debate after that was wondering what song would represent each letter and was all surprised that fyf was set closer and not encore.

Sounded like Mike was leading a lot of these jams.
