## Notes

Major thanks to Paul & Lori for setting us up with great seats and a parking pass: little luxuries always make it easier to enjoy a show!

I thought tonight's effort was pretty darn good. I liked that they expressed a broad range in styles and dynamics (as opposed to the smash you in the head approach of JRAD), and while I didn't recognize about half the tunes, that didn't hinder my ability to enjoy the moment.

Several of Trey's solos were truly over the top bonkers good: another reason that I should probably make an effort to see Phish more often.

Thanks to Nugs & Youtube, you can watch the set openers for free: [Pebbles & Marbles](https://youtu.be/iR29Jp6ca-s?t=254) and [Blaze On](https://youtu.be/J4-us_gHOZY?t=158). Looks like the wideview shot of stage was from the soundboard -- about 4 rows behind us.
