[@TheRealLange21]

The last 6 minutes of this is one of the greatest things I've ever heard

[@amarguitar]

Trey's solo (2:54) starts off so heartbreakingly beautiful. Then they take it to space and funk the hell out of it? This is why we Phish, people.

[@JWitt30]

Yup

[@lylehutnick8807]

Chills.

[@anvobiandreams]

Sounds like a Waste solo

[@phishphan9791]

amarguitar yep

[@ericboone1148]

Great and yes this why...

[@jacobkomarow1463]

This is one of the jams I keep coming back to. Dark, mysterious, interesting, intimate, fucking intense and a total vibe. the type of jam that silences chompers. Phish man.

[@strockman]

I attended this show. This jam was both unexpected and transformative. 26 years in, and I still constantly blown away. How many times can one person have their face melted?

[@AdamSJarrett]

This is Phish on another level.

[@willr2531]

Easily the best Swept Away > Steep I've ever heard. I don't think anyone at MSG saw this kind of crazy dark jam coming out of fucking Steep. Incredible, I love this band so much

[@jbcat78]

Best Steep ever played. Beatles-esque at parts.

[@tjk_9000]

Best band ever.

[@phishphan9791]

Holy shit. This is pure fucking magic. Jam of the tour.

[@jeffg7478]

very nice, some real tension/release and even an almost trey hop at 12:10, thickness

[@CharlieBarlow]

this was an unexpected highlight of the whole run of Bakers Dozen.

[@ethanschwartz]

agreed

[@zacharysmiles1308]

Years later.... still obsessed with this jam.....

[@SeenACowSki]

Same! I’m always coming back to it.

[@chapinandersen]

I keep going back to the jam where they sandwiched this between an it’s ice jam in 97.

[@jeffgaba3661]

Time for my daily dose of this excellent rendition

[@loveandhate3471]

Super Cool! I love the midway transitional shift... I saw these guys at Amy`s Farm, And the Great Went(Limestone). Its good to see they haven`t lost their edge. I think they may have sharpened it a little!

[@ericdonofrio6946]

I was there! It was awesome! Love it.

[@harpuaslutbag2997]

It never fails that before I watch these ProShot clips I think, "who chooses these snoozers" and then I'm left drooling on myself. Mr. Ernest....please don't burn the whole house down....some of us would like to enjoy MSG a few years down the line. "Cuz it feels good"

[@mattb.8750]

this is insanity - god - so good.

[@mountain9954]

When the crowd becomes part of the light show... Amazing.

[@DouglasF68]

Happy Birthday Jerry Show. My second show. 1st @ First Ave. In 1992. Good Ole Rockytop.

[@jerrymcsendy]

This was my first Phish show, I think this one has some real gems. I was REALLY hoping they'd post this one!!

[@DolemiteGK]

It's a blast seeing a left turn after you've seen them turn right on a song 20 times before. This is grand.

[@daveleafey9283]

Phish night 3 tonight in AC Night 2 was incredible

[@chazwillmann668]

Goddamn Red....easily some of his best guitar work in a decade or so. Pure Fuego...

[@harpuaslutbag2997]

At the 11:52 mark Trey kills it. Yes!

[@sugareewazoo633]

Beautiful funkified jelly jam - damn. Love to go Phishin; after the Dead followed me from 1982 (Philly Spectrum) through a magical and special journey of special times until Vega$ 05/95 Silver Bowl I grabbed on to the coattails and hooked me some Phish. Of course many Ratdog, Further, The Dead, Dead & Co. & Dark Star Orchestra (DSO). Phish is in line with all dead related bands, & at times top dawg.

[@TheMomentEnds1]

GLORIOUS!!! Last time played SPAC 2012, and you thought unicorns were rare....

[@JWitt30]

When Gordo starts stomping the fight bell and CK5 knows EXACTLY when to drop the lights... it's just amazing to me, I f'n love these guys.

[@bluecollar825]

42 is the jam!

When Mike starts dropping the bass bombs at 6:33 the whole venue started vibrating

[@jimnasium520]

Maor Yehezkel I felt that deep down in my balls when he dropped those bombs. First time I heard mike dropping bombs live. Unreal feeling

[@bluecollar825]

@@jimnasium520 you never got a Tweeprise? He pretty consistently drops some heavy bombs in that, especially leading up to where he comes in to stay. I'm sure if you got one you'd of remembered it lol.✌

[@jimnasium520]

@@bluecollar825 yes I’ve gotten a tweeprise at my first show 2-28-03, along with many others. It’s not the same..

[@bluecollar825]

@@jimnasium520 hmmm, I definitely felt some of those, pre 2000 tho. Sorry u r so jaded. I like clean unfiltered bass bombs. The ones you refer to in this video I feel aren't the same lol. Goes to show it all comes down to preference/opinion. Stay safe friend...✌

[@jimnasium520]

@@bluecollar825 not sure how my comment 5 years ago turned in to me being jaded lol. Or what the point is even. Your saying you like the old Mike bombs better ? If so then cool 😎. Those are fucking sweet too. Have a nice day ✌️

[@mbass718]

Sick!!! The way they build up the tune and really let it breathe before taking it up a notch..felt like it had such great touches of Floyd. Just a few more shows to go yet it's amazing how they keep it so fresh night after night. This'll go down as one of their best runs ever when folks look back years from now. Ain't many bands at all who could play MSG 13 nights and have each night be so intense and creative!!

Bass bombs ftw!

[@charaara]

Anyone notice how at 8:20 Trey starts to do this one thing (which i have no idea how to call it) but the rest of the band isn't with him for like 2 seconds maybe and then at 8:25 Trey does it again and keeps doing it as the rest of the band falls back with him? lmao that shit is brilliant PS I may be extremely baked and this comment makes no sense

[@frankrosselli6444]

Haim Roth

[@Triumph865]

Trey is telling the band the space funk part of the jam has ended, and that he will take it from here. Which is exactly what he does.

[@jeffg7478]

i sank them into hilltide sleep lol he said the same line at spac 10', has a mental tick with that line

[@phishphan9791]

The Sloth I noticed that too.

We all knew rock and roll was a million to one shot....but if you have some talent and you like performing, I think you owe it to yourself to give it a shot. But if you're not playing concert bars by the time you're 30, its time to consider getting a "straight" job.

lol did you even listen to the whole song? they each change up their rhythm/tone/mood like a half dozen times. 3 minutes in sounds nothing like 6 minutes in sounds nothing like 10 minutes in...
