i’m just glad hampton fluff lost. I understand the sentiment behind it, but did phish do nothing better on stage in 09 than just be there?

I’ve seen a few shows, and that was up there with one of the best things I’ve witnessed and been a part of.

Just sayin’…

Oh, and I completely agree about the Miami Ghost and several other moments in Miami, I guess that just wasn’t the opinion of the OKP masses

I feel like we might have had this conversation…one…or seven times…

If this contest started yesterday the Miami songs may have gotten more attention as the recordings became more engrained. That being said the best 1 song ineas them perform last year was the Sand at Camden!

If you really want to pick hairs about this poll, I find it quite odd that none of the miami jams made it in this tourney as any of the big jams in miami were the best of the year. And that Ghost is def better than Albany . But its a democracy, and i’m just enjoying playing along. This is a good way to see what everyone’s varied (by varied I mean wrong ) opinions are on what phish has done this year.

…

There was a ton of Miami, it just didn’t make it to the final rounds.

yeah thats what I’m saying. I think they deserved to make it to the later rounds. bigb makes my point better than I do, if the Miami jams were more engrained in peoples skulls they would’ve survived longer cuz miami was tighhtttt.

I went with Gin on this one, Sand was really close for me though…

I still think Red Rocks Tweez and Miami BOTT were the best Jams to my ears this year…Miami Ghost is right up there as well (Hell, Miami Tweez should be up there too)…

I think we can all agree that 2009 was pretty damn awesome compared to PH and the Breakup Hiatus…

I went with Sand. So glad to see that jam still in the running, as it is definitely my favorite jam of 2009.

looks like Gin is going down

Before this all ends, I just want to throw a special thank you to Will for making this happens… for the Willman!

[ghost_2000]

I listened to this “Sand” the other day.

Am I the only one that wasn’t completely blown away by it? I mean, it’s good…but I wasn’t like “OH SHIT!”

[lawnboy357]

I was more partial towards Cobo 46 Days myself.

[PhishSouper]

i definitly think the sand jam was good but was not blown away by it and dont think it is the best jam of the year so gota go with Gin…cannnnnnnnnnnnnnt believe that a DWD is not in the running …the DWD from NY is awsome awsome awsome and cant believe some of the other jams arent in this thing but i LOVE this bracket and thanks to will for setting it up. this thing was FUN more than anything else, so after all the voting and listening and relistening thanks for all of this it was good times!

[willbreathes]

Personally, I wasn’t really crazy about any DWDs in '09.

[ghost_2000]

I listened to the Alpine DWD the other day. It was good, not great.

[willbreathes]

Probably close this up this weekend.

Winner faces Loving Cup from Fest8.

Get your complaints in while you can!

I thought there were two ‘great’ DWDs in 2009…Hampton and Fest 8.

^MSG was better than both of those, IMO.

No!! You’re not! I’m glad that I’m not the only one too…

I listened again just a couple days ago…I’m kinda with Neil in saying, yeah, its good, but I too wasn’t like…Oh Shit! This Gin is reallllly nice though

I don’t remember what this one was like, I’ll have to give it another listen…thanks!

It’s my favorite jam of '09, and I still wasn’t completely blown away by it. I haven’t been completely blown away by anything from '09 (except in a live setting of course). I just thought that Sand was a moment of brilliance at a surprisingly early time in the comeback. The way it builds and builds and builds is one of the things I love most about Phish.
