Gin theme melt was epic

[@kppo1999]

Big epic

[@TheRareDirt]

For Sure!!

[@ChopAndBrew]

Absolutely!

[@johnvanluvanee4132]

Being there, the visuals were definitely much better and in tune with the music tonight vs. Night 1

[@adventureswithreece3955]

I am glad you do these. Keep it going Sir

[@ThreeToesofFury]

thanks! love your recaps!!!!

[@ChrisFrayer]

Thanks for the review. I was there and this is pretty spot on! 👅 🐶

[@stuartzoo]

Love you too brother 👊💥 Thanks for keeping the 1 free song on KZbin haters in check.

[@SGguy11]

You are just a delightful person, thanks for another great breakdown!

[@bradleach4947]

Dude that art work to the right! I bought 2 in the lot at deer creek after the show, a couple years ago I think!

[@exdemocrat9038]

Love this channel!

[@spuddougherty7860]

Very heavy on the Water theme tonight. Last night was land. I think we've cracked the code. I became a fan of Lonely Trip tonight. Just needed a Water in the sky. Kaboom 👊

[@BAM5636]

@spuddougherty7860 I think water in the sky tomorrow. For sky/air theme.

[@spuddougherty7860]

@BAM5636 You're right! I wonder if it's Air next.....then Space Sunday. 🤔

[@BAM5636]

​@@spuddougherty7860Honesty, I could see it. I think the theme is developing for sure. I heard someone say their Sunday theory was animals as in the 4 biospheres of this planet which also fits, so that or space I think.

[@truncated_sleigh]

Hell yeah, man! 💥

[@ambassador8524]

Love This Guy!

[@hollanrh]

I was at that 03 Cincinnati show run… that Free was unreal.

[@butler-macdonald8351]

David Bowie is coming on 4/20 night. They've played it 499 times so far. Vegas Sphere would be #500

[@Devan-he4kr]

For YEM, I think Trey wrote the intro part after watching Fish swim out deep in the ocean in Italy. I think that is how it fits in with the theme.

[@JBT42884]

Dude stop talking forever.

[@sound_tsunami8436]

Wash your feet and drive me to firenze. The washing part I think is the water theme

[@Devan-he4kr]

@@JBT42884 sorry

[@Devan-he4kr]

@@sound_tsunami8436 good point

[@brendantimmons5415]

This night was incredible. Tons of interesting playing and phenomenal visuals.

[@FZappa20]

My favorite night so far

[@firemarshallbill7983]

So many phans were balling their eyes out during velvet sea it was something.

[@Beermalls]

Yeah I been watching the You Tubers recordings who really capture the experience! The live stream does focus a lot just on the band! That’s cool though! These shows are definitely in the category of “ you had to be there!” I myself am not! Seen a great video of that SOAM! Looked incredible!

[@2112CO]

03 Summer was a way underrated tour a bunch of killer shows.

[@barleytalk9622]

Theme visuals were unreal I’d go to sphere just to sit in there with that background

[@bobaboey]

Great summary of what went down. It happened.

[@thomaspickering2344]

That Theme was incredible. Agree with you, need to see a 2001!

[@Lvnindistube]

Agree. But the way the humans swam could’ve used a little more effort.

[@Devan-he4kr]

What songs are they not playing? Gamehendge?

[@scottakin5184]

Thanks for the review! Can anyone comment on if there has been any "tip of the hat"/tribute to Dickie Betts (teases, etc.)?

[@dontworrybeslappy]

Could of should of been there, I had a buddy tell me this every time I said a small bit of negativity lol... overall I was being positive and excited for him as well. My gripes were about pointing out this or that in regards to the music anyway,which I thought was fantastic just being typical fan with some gripes. Still he kept reminding me I wasn't there and how awesome and different it was. So epic was what he called it. Oh well, great recap man good job!!

[@sacagawea4202]

some people have low expectation. his version of "epic" and yours probably differ.

[@johnharringtonacdc]

Trey wrote YEM and Harry Hood while living on a beach with Fishman in Europe I believe, so that’s a water/ ocean connection there

[@volsown]

Washe Fitze, hence car wash

[@Josh-ue3ns]

“There was some stuff to listen to and some stuff to look at.” Incredible!

[@MartianTrey]

took him 9 minutes to say that?

[@subliminalvibrations7976]

I thought the last song said, "HOOP". For a moment I'm like, "a new song"? Then I realized, I'm an idiot. It's Harry.

[@sacagawea4202]

Or, his handwriting sucks (as bad as his haircut). I saw Hoop as well.

[@exdemocrat9038]

The sphere was made for Phish/Phish was made for the sphere.

[@fatcatfarms]

They'll always be "the Boys" to me

[@bobhuber8480]

YEM was the highlight. C Ssllluuuuuurrpp.

[@funnyguy6686]

Can we get the war paint face for night 3 or 4???

[@operationstayalive]

earth water fire air

[@tylerromanelli1248]

read my mind

[@cheesetallica]

Let’s go to the Apex man!!!! Hahaha

[@williamthurstoniii5]

I'm just curious if anybody else feels that tonights show may be showed us exactly what Trey was thinking when he wrote these songs. That and if just maybe Gordo might see the world with black lights.

[@jessetoews2446]

Taste the Sphere

[@largefarva73]

Could have squeezed a Brother in there!

[@Lvnindistube]

Tonight will be Fire. N4 will be Space and 2001 will be last. Just my guess..

[@reidstone1975]

The fans at the Sphere 2024 experienced visuals that I achieved at Allstate Arena, Fall 2000. Congrats to them, they finally caught up!

[@spuddougherty7860]

That happened to me at a Grateful Dead show in 87. 😆 🤣

[@sacagawea4202]

cool story bro

[@carlgemlich1657]

Don't think they had 16k resolution in 2000.

[@justinh7783]

They grey in the beard is making you very distinguished.

[@Beermalls]

Then the free set opener! Phish ain’t giving this experience away for free! They want you to order that live stream! If you just watch the free set opener you gonna be like meh! Watch some of these KZbin Videos! You ll see good footage!

[@darcyshouldice5076]

Phish Theme for these shows - Four Elements(?)

[@sacagawea4202]

what would the N1 element be??

[@brendanl2603]

Not "the boys" lol

[@justingroff3682]

Almost every song was fluid boat water or ocean related. Actually surprised they didn’t play water in the sky fee (pirate ship) and soul planet (also pirate ship) which are also water songs because they played everything else. Free moma dance gin takes place in a bathtub theme wave of hope lonely trip while you’re on this lonely trip keep a watch for other ships and if by chance our vessels pass asihtos Prince Caspian is based on a cs Lewis Christian children’s novel 1 of 7 in Narnia on a boat with Caspian the captain of a magical ship called the Dawn Treader velvet sea of course So only Axilla mercy SOAm WTU because it has no lyrics ruby waves YEM and Hood are not ocean songs. I am one of those losers at home w no money well at work actually I work graveyard but not gonna shit on 2 free songs maybe that is why Trey opens with free often recently kinda a meta joke. I will not complain about my favorite band in this Vegas run. If you want to shit on phish in Vegas shit on 4 15-17 2004. That deserves a shit to the face but not this

[@justingroff3682]

@@SteveHarvey272 yes I forgot about the bridge SEAWEED part TOUCHE sir yep I was wrong on SOAM and Mercy lyrics open w it didnt remember that Milk has water IN it and YEM I guess it fit only BECAUSE of the car wash visuals so Trey MADE IT FIT and WTU I dont get that one at ALL but touche on the first 2 Liquid not Ocean night close but no cigar and my favorite of the run i called it on N3 but then doubted it in peer pressure's influence over me

The Boys!!
