my video has been good but it's out in front of the audio which is annoying

I just don't watch anyone sing which in phish is not the worst idea regardless

hope they rock it again

Lots of people on .net complaining of the audio not mating with the video.

Mine just keeps stopping and buffering.

I am using an up to date Mac mini with maxed out RAM, with 200 download speed. This computer is used only for audio and streaming--nothing else (no surfing, movies, etc.).

I stream just about every show, and the last 2 years or so have been almost flawless (since the Haloween debacle the year they did the Haunted Disney covers).

Hopefully it works tonight.

It's kinda hard to do a show like last night's show EVERY NIGHT.

the first set was just them playing a few tunes--nothing special, but nothing bad either.

Some of the younger ones on dot-net I could punch--bitching that every song is not a type II burner...really?

I took in many a Dead show back in the day (over 70) and, well, you got what you got, but that is what made the good shows so good.

Think about it--the younger phans can now, within a day, get the entire show, flawlessly recorded in 24/96k resolution, or for $10/month, have pretty damn good quality access to 20 years of live shows..

30 years ago, a Deadhead would have killed to have night after night performances like this band has been putting out for the last 20 years!...not to mention incredible recordings.

...and live video streams too!


The band has morphed and matured over the years and still creates great new music with catchy hooks and riffs--and I appreciate that--there is always something new to listen to.

I have some friends that aren't into the music scene and have been listening to the same 10 Zeppelin and 7 Pink Floyd records for 35 years now--how awful...I feel bad for them.

We got it good with this band--they keep delivering--and seem to be enjoying it too.

I know what you mean, i throw on a lot of random stuff at work just to pass the time and there is much, from so many different people that you can't even get through it all.

But i think last night was my favorite set of the tour so far. But so was the day before. The sounded off in the first set, maybe it was the audio stream but after Tube they really took off.

I fly out Friday morning and am staying through the rest of the run.

I thought I was pretty set on my stance that 2015 was the best year of 3.0, but so far 2017 is doing pretty well and if stays like this will pass it easily

Every show has quality stuff in it. Every single one. shite last year I was hoping for a good jam every 3rd show.

Pretty awesome. I hope they keep it up.

ya but 2015 had a bunch of awesome stuff too - if they close the run out like they are rending it will be amazing. Its a function of unique set-lists as they are clearly going for no repeats. But they are jamming songs they haven't before - you really don't know what to expect.

Lawn Boy overall, 1999 had the best peak in a long time.

I agree with Sally. The '99 jam was great but the actual song....well, it was ok - great energy though throughout. It looked like all of them were reading the lyrics of a piece of paper except Mike.

How would you rank them in order so far?

4,5,1,3,2

Speaking of Sally, hope they bust that out too.

Crosseyed>Chicago Simple imo

Dayton Down (Set II opener ) & Ghost are worth a relisten also.

The seven below was a really good jam too.

And surprisingly - the character zero.

Really all of Set II last night is worth a listen
