[@bethmaco2001]

Bravo to the band and the singers/dancers for improvising through a very scary and dicey situation. These incredible performances keep me coming back to the Phish year after year after year. The love I have for this group and community is immense! Let Trey down!

No joke the whole world would become suspended in air.... And still is. We getting there though. I posted this for science. So in the future I can look back at this comment and sigh.

“You in mid air...” lol

[@pango-y8j]

Isn't it stuck in mid-air

[@justinkrogh9712]

Been showing pics and telling stories to everyone who dared ask "Do anything fun for NYE?". Thank you Phish for posting this! Thank you for all of the music, risks, jokes & love. And to all of the people who said "They're STILL touring?" You should definitely go see them... just the shows I can't make. PTBM are f**king tough enough to get as is...😉☮❤☮❤

[@njptacek]

We were just off the rail at Mike and I had no idea Trey's platform had tilted and thought him being stuck was all part of the gag and would provide another convenient entry for Zamfir - boy was I wrong! Trey handled it so well that I didn't even really realize how serious it was until encore > rescue squad. Glad he made it to the ground okay. Still an amazing gag and one of the best NYE runs yet. I love this band.

I interviewed Trey two years ago (I'm a journalist) and I have to say he is one of the sweetest, most down-to-earth celebrities -- or non-celebrities for that matter -- I've ever known. Just a very generous, kind and genuine individual. I know he was trying to break the nervous tension, but when he said "I love you guys," he meant it.

One of the few bands that keeps getting better with age.

[@samuelbetzenmusic]

Like fine wine!

[@crab-dogjones4659]

Man, 30 year old Trey blows modern Trey off the stage. Back in the day he would shred on 32nd notes like it wasn't a thing. Now he saws at whole notes all night long. Transitions where he used to play 20 notes will now skate by with 4 or 5. Far be it from me to criticize but he shows all the signs of becoming lazier with age. Or maybe he has arthritis or something.

[@danielldubord1814]

Still waiting on a decent album in the last 15 years??

[@cryptosanity361]

I only saw this band once in ft Lauderdale area . I think it was 1994 but could be off a year . They had a large screen with an image of a chess board and during the show Jimmy Buffett came out and sang brown eyed girl . I still listen to them quite often . Love wolf mans brother . Probably my favorite studio song .

[@ChrisLee-on3ro]

That year they played a game of chess with the crowd the whole tour...forget how they voted for moves,but in the end I think the phans won.
