[@simontemplar404]

I had no idea that anyone was still making commercially successful "music to listen to" these days. This is not Pink Floyd but it fills the hole that 50 years have left. This is great, wish i had found this band back in 83. Regards from the UK.

[@oceantree5000]

Well, they’ve been around for almost that long, so you’ve got forty years and change of brilliant material to catch up on. Congratulations! Gonna be a hell of a ride.

[@justintrites1699]

This came out in 2000..on the farmhouse album. One of their best

[@ramsessevenone416]

Phound a new Phish Phan! You are in for a treat my guy

[@mutoneon]

Hop across the pond and catch some bands, I look forward to doing the same.

[@MarvinMonroe]

In 83 only about 5 people had found them probably. 1988 probably a few thousand. 92-94 was when they started getting nationally known. Then 95-97 super popular

[@cowslaw]

Had this on in the background while I made an omelette. It turned out pretty well, since Phish is good omelette-making music.

[@ScottHoover-vx8rb]

I just made omlets for my girl and I with morel mushrooms that I found yesterday. It was delightful.

[@mcolban]

I also had this on while making eggs on a wrap. They turned out excellent.

[@ShaynAlmeida]

Fk it, ima make some Eggs 🍳 😂

[@mikemickus7712]

I made Phish Tacos. 😅

[@michaelalexander8957]

Agreed!. Ive cooked many meals to phish in the background

[@FesteringEarth]

This band is a genuine gift

[@brammoffitt8346]

The most genuine

[@tspin9983]

i love witnessing gratitude. It is an exceptionally profound emotion.

[@unclejimy]

For real to be alive during the era of the Grateful Dead and now phish. I feel like I won

[@FesteringEarth]

Being a younger Phan for years, I’m so happy that many got to feel their shows in the moment. Both for phish and the dead. I’ve listened to them for years and for me it feels like it’s an archive of lessons to be learn/understand from years past. Sometimes it’s just simply a good jam, a KILLER jam, or deeper than that where I learn much more. I’m going to the first dead night as my high school graduation gift for myself and I know how much this’ll change for me. I’m so glad people got to experience these bands within their own lifetime.

[@robrenninger5324]

They really do sound good at Sphere. First night was a little shaky, but they seem comfortable now.

[@moosestubbings1853]

I wish Jerry Garcia was alive to see the sphere He would've loved it

[@jimcuifolo1898]

I said same thing when I saw U2 . Just play here.

[@skatterbrainz]

Imagine pulling someone through a time portal from 2000 yrs ago and putting them right there. And then how they would try to describe it to everyone when they went back.

[@davehildebrand38]

That's an excellent point.

[@Samsjamms]

This is amazing. Phish and the sphere are meant for each other.

[@brammoffitt8346]

They should just take it on tour with them from now on.

[@DarkEmperor2460]

All I see are a bunch of floating white dots. What incredibly boring visuals.

[@kreateyrownskrnname]

i doubt we could really cut loose there tho… i mean can people find spots to dance? i imagine they expect the attendees to actually stay in their seats…

[@NickDonellan]

So true!

[@NickDonellan]

​@@DarkEmperor2460You apparently haven't experienced hallucinagens because dots can do some crazy shit. Especially a few billion of them. 😅

You sir evidently have not been to a Spice Girls concert

[@josephji8484]

Perfect balance between a dry sand and a wet sand. Sounds great 🪷☕️🪷

[@joshuahufnagel5594]

No one mentioned that Trey was on the 'Ocedoc' ::: hasn't used that guitar on stage for years! Never thought he would pull that out again.

[@YeshuaAlberto]

Did he just pull it out for this song or set? I’m too lazy to do my research. Ok I might.

[@meegangamble6503]

Wow, such the perfect song with that visual

[@WDNFSandbox]

Went for the 4-night run. It will ruin all other live music for a while.......

[@foxxygearreviews7754]

Sound is really good.

[@rockguitarist931]

they should play indoors more often, I'd love to hear them in an old theater

[@davidnemo6400]

Monster jam. They're inspired as hell by the sphere and it shows

[@therealultralight]

Agreed!

[@vervor]

This!! This is why I had to go

[@forthedoggiesguitars2277]

The mix and sound is unreal; you can hear every grain so clearly!

[@jamesa6080]

They went digital for their shows at the sphere instead of mic’ing amps

[@SPINUNDRUM]

Thank god that Phish was first after the U2 circus. Nobody and I mean nobody deserves it more.

awesome. no lets have a pinkfloyd revival in there. and a grateful dead resurrection. nah forget that. phish played.

[@steelcityspeedshopj.r6942]

Love you boys ❤ and sorry i could not make it 😢 But i have tickets to MONDGREEN and im positive i oicked the best shows of what will be an amazing summer tour 2024

[@erdtree_larry]

Love that Uni-Vibe at 3:20, with it's subtle kick on. What a perfect effect for this band, and it is used so tastefully...never overstated.

[@rickd1197]

Phish in Buffalo! (sometime soon please)

[@charlieolewnik]

Hopefully for a Superbowl party.

[@Stratking01]

Meshuggah should be next here.. that’d be a tall order for the lighting crew timing wise

[@kylealler7109]

There would be a riot. Lol

[@anthonym612]

Asking this question out of general curiosity (and ignorance) - What prevents them from having their usual backline of amplifiers at this venue?

[@PeterByker]

The Sphere is outfitted with 176,000 speaker drivers, it may have been redundant in this venue?

[@kreateyrownskrnname]

@@PeterByker that’s the public address system. the amps on stage actually amplify the instruments. they don’t need to be right behind them tho or present at all necessarily, lots of options and workarounds available.

[@LivingDeadinthepast]

It has directional sound. Every seat has speakers pointed just at the seats. It’s incredible. It’s like they took the Grateful Dead Wallace sound made it bigger and then curved it so every speaker it going right to the individual

[@damienlazar6103]

1 of the last Phish shows, definitely last Phil show and as a struggling Livé visual artist, whom embodies the collaboration therefore 1ce it's over im through as well.I sold both back 2back and got $250 4 Phil & $300 for Phish in which the shwaggy @ss dude w/old lady & homie thank God 4 homie he covered it. Unbelievable....😢

[@psychedelicconnection3258]

Pink Floyd need to play this venue 🤯

[@writer125]

Pink Floyd is done ✅. Richard Wright is dead 💀.

[@CrimsonJam]

do u think anyone did shrooms at this specific show?

No. No one ever does psychedelics at Phish shows. So, no.

[@unclejimy]

Easier to count the ones that didn't

[@disliked1390]

I recognize they are super talented but it makes me feel nothing. There's no coherent theme they just improvise a bunch of loosely connected stuff for way too long. Not sold on that band. I'm not giving up but...ZZZZZz....this song.

[@allankay12]

So im jammin out and all of a sudden my stomache growls. So I fry me up a burger on the frying pan. Greasy. Just they way Phish like burgers.

[@guitarthings8453]

Some people play faster, do a bunch of tapping...etc. that's great, and Fun..I am talking about someone that can COMPOSE like any and all of the GREATS...but that symphony is at his fingertips...

[@cryptoguru8541]

saw this live was incredible!

[@caitiemcgregor7359]

Are you still using Chris McGregor's light design? It's a great way to honor him.

[@EnormousErection]

[@mattcovert3575]

As cool as this is, hearing it under the Finger Lakes stars in Watkins Glen at Magnaball @ 1am was sublime...

[@peterkovachevich]

20 minutes of stars?

[@s.t.e.v.e.r]

lmao that guy deleted his comment before i could reply

[@justingroff3682]

This venue may be one of those that only works in PERSON YOU have to be there because if you look at a screen shot of a show from any other show it looks epic but this just looks cheesy and that is strange because they spent a ton of money on this venue Had to be there to get it I guess

[@eugenebeecher7308]

I agree - their use of it seems underwhelming from the TV angle. Its like 1 screen saver per song. I keep waiting for something to actually happen. Id feel distracted.

[@uncleebenezer8599]

Can confirm that's it's incredible being there. Like no show I've been to

Ive only watched the freebies, but are the graphics ever interactive with the band's playing? Bathtub Gin - the end sounded like they were playing for a cue, and blew it...and the animations ran out before the song ended?

[@davidthomaschwclmt5925]

Amazing but I still think they need more lights. Build the rig. Lights add more into the depth and allows for more dynamic explosive goodness.

[@timharper4246]

They'd probably light up the inner walls and make the picture look faded

[@lawina33]

Second set night 2 I realize sphere is a gimmick. I was there for the band not a cool screen. I don’t need the visuals on bicycle day! Sick second set night 2!

[@nicebluejay]

@@meltingface2558 yes i don't disagree, but the ad nauseum comments are getting annoying. also, developing imagery that can be flexible to lengthy improvisations is a unique challenge. other bands don't have to deal with this. what would have been better?
