There's been some interesting bustouts so far, I'm sure that will continue.

The boys are cranking out awesome jams literally every night right now. Crazy. Last night's Chalkdust > Sexy thing is another awesome 35+ minute jam.

Just the last 3 shows you have:

A 30 minute Lawn Boy and Crosseyed
30-40 minute Carini>Mr Completely>1999 with an insane peak
A 35 minute Chalkdust>Sexy Thing

And they're all compact, focused, thematic, well played jams.

This is unreal. I never thought I'd see the day in 3.0 that they're playing at almost 1.0 levels every show

Yeah it was 24 minutes, I just meant that whole segment. It makes me happy to hear you're enjoying some of this tour Burt.

And something I've been thinking about a lot listening to this tour is Page and his new toys.

I think some of his willingness to really use his synths for texture on a lot of jams, as opposed to his usual habit of just sort of following behind Trey playing a ton of notes on grand piano. It's led to a let less commotion when they're changing up the jam and is helping them pinpoint where they're trying to go a lot faster, leading to a lot less noddle and a lot less sloppy play. Not to mention some more groove based stuff and less "ok Trey play a bunch of notes and hope something occurs"

Page going all Magner with his synths this tour. Other than summer 97 (especially Europe tour) and some 99-00 ambient stuff he's always laid off them for the majority of the time

I dunno some rambling late night thoughts

Oh and didn't hear any of it but word on the streets was tonight's was pretty basic 3.0. 6/7 ain't bad. Some cool bustouts though

Calling the covers for each donut is starting to get pretty easy. Powderfinger, Sexy Thing, Cinnamon Girl, all pretty obvious. shite I even joked about Chocolate Rain before the show and they actually opened with it. Still cool covers, they nailed Powderfinger

Tonight's flavor is jimmies, as in rustled jimmies. Type I everything, lots of whale calls, and no song goes longer than 5 minutes.

Ya tonight was solid. Lots in our group got multiple first timers . Small jams tacked on to a multiple first set songs. I enjoy d set 2 - wasn't up there the level of Friday night. The seats on side and behind stage were bouncing up and down the whole show..

The energy in MSG has been insane the past two nights. First shows here and the arena has lived up to all expectations. And Phish is crushing it.

Jimmies- Harpua? Izabella?!? Can't wait for tonight

As much as some Phish fans don't care for DMB, I wouldn't discount a Jimi Thing cover, considering Trey is friends with Dave and has toured with him before.
