Well-said @qushner, very eloquent. I just came in to say that after much internal (and external) debate, '98 is MY favorite year of PHiSH and it starts with these shows right here. You can tell how excited the band was to play after being in the studio and the fans bring it with the energy. Wish I could have been part of the glory of 93-98 but I'll have to discuss with my parents why they wouldn't let a 9-13 year-old tour with Phish. Here's to hoping Phish brings some of that '98 excitement, energy, experimentation and focus into their music in 2013!
