zound Where are we heading with this band? Jamming and communication are at an arguable all time high, the band's playing fantastically, they are having a blast and reaching all kinds of creative peaks. My take on it is that key element holding them back is the lack of consistant new material to sink their teeth into; stuff that will last as part of the rotation and elevate the sets that the songs are inserted into.

Last night Phish took a huge leap in confronting their biggest current weakness head on, full speed ahead and damn those torpedos. Respect. Was it the funnest, most crowd pleasing set that we could have seen last night? Hells no. But I had a blast and came out of the room with more hope for the future than any cover record could have given me. They made a decisive, forward thinking creative decision, executed it precisely and clearly worked their butts off in the process. I say - Rejoice!
