Review by kernsey

kernsey this was my first phish show!

the sound in the target center had always been notoriously bad [sting, DMB] and the fact that i could understand the vocals was amazing to me. the sound got so much better about 3 songs in. hearing DISTINCTLY "bag it, tag it, sell it to the butcher in the store" and "i saw you, with a ticket stub in your hand" was really refreshing. big kudos to the sound tech. was that paul at that time?

i was thrilled to hear bouncing, character zero, YEM and good times bad times. seeing them do sweet adeline was something i've never seen a band do before [and only huey lewis & the news since!]--barbershop quartet singing. that knocked me out.

i remember that the light show was better than anything i'd seen. they still have consistently the best rock band light show.

i was so excited to hear zeppelin for the encore! somehow i knew that page was going to sing "I KNOW WHAT IT MEANS TO BE ALONE!" and it literally gave me chills and tears. i knew i would be a long-hauler for this band.
