First of all, YES on the Sing a Song phrasing in Ocelot. I heard this too! Also wasn't Trey's mom employed at Sesame Street in some capacity? Very possible this wasn't just a coincidence (if not conscious quoting on his part).

Second, I too think calling the tour 'hit or miss' to-date is a bit harsh. One weak show, a couple average sets, but otherwise, very very good playing and many highlights since Bend 2.

Third, 7/31 had a stronger first set, but I don't know, that Tweezer ... best jam of the tour I think. 8/1 didn't top it but I wouldn't hesitate saying it the 'came close' to the previous night's 'top-shelf' performance. I'd just call the whole run a back to back barn-burner and leave it at that.

I'm sorry but Tweezer is my favorite Phish song and I really didn't think too much of this jam. Thought it was a valiant effort but was full of missteps and misfires. Seemed the band was struggling to figure out what Trey was doing at portions and though they recovered and became cohesive at times I didn't feel the jam ever fully gelled.
Honestly felt that the Blaze On> Twist> Light sequence was far, far superior to anything they did at Atlanta, though overall the Atlanta shows were probably more even from start to finish.
