My Mind’s–>NICU is so damn sloppy, but it doesn’t even matter! Great show.
Twist is dark and scary, and interesting.
and I usually enjoy a Wolfman’s–>Sally.
I do enjoy this “Twist,” to be sure, but does anyone actually consider it their favorite ever?
Or does anyone think this is the best “Twist” Phish ever performed?
I suppose I should add strictly in a musical sense.
Being there would obviously add a certain element to your opinion.
when you factor in the jams, post-hiatus Twists take the cake, imo.
6.20.04 is best ever imo. 4.16.04 has an amazing jam. and of course there’s 7.30.03
I put all three of those in the same ballpark as 4.2.98.
I think the Cypress one is pretty sweet too, but I can’t remember much about that one.
Isn’t anyone gonna get on their high horse and bash me for fluffing something post-hiatus??
oh yeah, there’s the 11.29.03 version, and super bluesy intro–>Twist–>Boogie On from Miami!!
Only 30 minutes elapsed, you have to give us more time.
Post Hiatus, lol.
The Twist from Vegas 'o4 is actually pretty good.

I don’t think I have a favorite version.
It’s odd that it was only played twice during '98 (I saw both ;))
Some I enjoy are
07-05-1997
08-06-1997
11-14-1997
10-07-2000
07-30-2003
04-16-2004
06-20-2004

There are very, very few songs that Phish have performed where I can name my absolute favorite version off the top of my head every time (same version, of course).
This isn’t one of them, but I enjoy all the ones mentioned, plus 9/10/99.
I never noticed that it was only played twice in '98. That is odd.
Odd indeed.
Indubitably.
Some may say the best Twist ever is from the album Farmhouse.
Those people live in dumpsters.

I forgot to mention that I heard the 9/26/99 version for the first time the other day and thought it contained a very good jam. Not spacey or ambient, just a straight-up raging jam.
::points to Twist thread in Individual Song Discussion::
As a whole, 4/2 is my second favorite out of the 4 shows on the Island Tour.
Why was this thread resurrected again??
why not?
^
True.
But to answer his question, it looks like billykal was checking out the setlist and knew there was an “Aliens are coming jam” but couldn’t find it.
I’ll be listening to this show straight-through today.
Good stuff.
How come this “Stash” doesn’t ever get mentioned when talking about really great versions?
Or am I the only one that really enjoys it?
Or maybe it does get mentioned and I’ve just never noticed?
Kevin Shapiro played it in his latest installment of “From the Archives.”
