Review by SkyTrainWand
I had a lot of fun at this show, the sunset was absolutely beautiful over Lake Onondaga, the crowd was nice. To be honest though, I only gave this show a 3 out of 5 and I feel like I'm being forgiving. There was almost NO musical exploration in either set. There were 17 songs in the first, with a combined total of maybe 5 minutes of jamming. The second set Drowned was interesting, until it got ripcorded into Twist, Waste, and a seemingly pointless version of Piper that didn't go anywhere.
Simple is always fun, but again I thought they'd actually TAKE it somewhere and explore, but nope. They went into Breath and Burning. I actually enjoy this new tune, but it only lasted 5 minutes until Rocky Top happened. Martian Monster was actually cool and featured some rotation jamming. Still didn't even break the 10 minute mark - felt like the band just had A.D.D. and was bored.
Just speaking for myself here but when I go to Phish I like to hear a mix of powerful songs and improvisation. This show was mostly songs and hardly any improv. Honestly really disappointing considering what happened at Mansfield and Hartford, but hey, can't win 'em all.
