ZatchL Oh man no way, he didn't fluff the hell out of all three nights??? People need to toughen up a little bit. If Phish is your obsession (as it is for many of us) then it's totally within rights to say when something isn't top notch. I wasn't there for any of them, but I've listened to them all, and Sunday WAS the slouch of the weekend. It isn't a sin to say so. Even if I don't agree with everything a reviewer says (as here- I think you're spot on in some places but obviously we all have different opinions) I respect the application of critical ears. If we don't care about some shows being amazing, others being average, and others being below, then why would the guys in Phish care?

P.S. Fwiw, sometimes I think on a strict musical level you can do a BETTER review of the show when you aren't there. If all you got to see live was night three and you dropped money on tix, gas, beer, food, and lodging, you're going to probably rate it higher mentally. Cognitive dissonance people...
