Tell me it’s not just me - 4/17/26 Night2
I’ve been seeing phish for over 15 years; 2 festivals, many venues- I saw the sphere 2 years ago and we were here last night- I’m not exactly a phish virgin…
But last night, especially set 2, blew my mind. Divided Sky in set 1 was amazing.. and then set II they dialed it up another notch. Like, the jam got so freaking weird and the visuals seemed like they were just right on point- then we get to this beautiful valley for Hydrogen before blasting us into weekapaug groove….
I’m thoroughly convinced that set II last night melted our collective brains. And how do I know? I want to go back now and listening to the recording, but after they finished the set we cheered and we caught our breath, but when they came back for the encore, there wasn’t much cheering at all. Yeah of course there were a few shouts here and there- but it was relatively eerily silent. I don’t think I’ve ever experienced that at a phish show. There was something in the air. It’s like we were all completely spent of energy, and needed some Trey story time- and boy did he deliver! Debut of Brief Time was like shooting love daggers to pierce the soul…. Then to just melt our brains again with that Carini!
What do you all think? Was that a show or what?
