ok, so this was my first show, it was pretty damn awesome, wish i had some money to go tonight or tomorrow. i was unprepared as i thought though, didn't know any of the encore songs except all night long, still good though, i liked the band cover, i'm assuming this is a rare favorite? because the crowd went pretty crazy for it.
i ended up about 10 feet in front of the sound board in the center, sound was perfect there, although they need to turn the volume up on jim's guitar.
why is it no one hear writes how awesome mahgeeta, dancefloors and one big holiday are? do they just play them a lot so you guys are looking for the more rare songs?
and last thing, but very important, are there any recordings available? i've been pretty spoiled as a phish fan, we get the soundboards of every show a couple hours afterwards.

That was a great watch. My wife was asking last night about the lights, who does it, is it the band or the venue, etc.

Let's see, could it possibly have been a better night?   If Jimmy had walked out said "good evening.   This song is for Mahg33ta.   It's called Mahgeetah" that would have been a cool start.   Short of that, pretty much perfect.

It's fun writing these reviews for those that aren't able to be hear, but I wonder if all of us continually saying "OMG best night ever!" starts sounding untrue.   Well, trust me, this show blew the top off Terminal 5 and, at least for me, surpassed At Dawn (I missed the first).    

Highlights for me:

OBH with the whole gang
Run Thru was a MONSTER.   Lights were great.   Patrick's clock hands.   SO good to get the full song after a few shows of the snippet.
It makes no difference
all night long (lol you had to be there) - these encores turn the crowd into a party
steam engine that just didn't stop
that trombone guy from the opener rocked - i couldn't take my eyes off him whenever he came out with the jacket
and How Could I Know, a song that's been a personal favorite for a long time (although for some reason I thought it was a Z song)

is it possible for anyone to post a picture of the poster from last night?

i'm at work .. again. AND TOTALLY STOKED. this week has been BEYOND great. everytime i've seen these guys in the past i always say to myself and those around me .. "why can't i do this every night". well, now i can :D i'm exhausted, my feet haven't stopped hurting and i think my right ear has permanently lost some hearing .. but i am so happy. i'm also SO HAPPY that it's FRIDAY. you know what i'm doing tomorrow .. SLEEPING IN BITCHES !! life is good :)

IWSYS and Makes No Difference were highlights for me ... and Run Thru which goes without saying. damn fine show and damn fine folks to share it with too!!

... and RE: work, i'm SO LUCKY that we have no shoots this week and i've managed to sneak out early everyday. and currently my boss running around with a guitar and fake dancing to phish. i love my job, life does not suck !!

agree completely.   I'm wearing down a bit physically.   too old for this I guess.   My feet are killing, my back is killing, my ears are ringing.   Having a blast.    The plan coming in was to take care of myself, sleep well, exercise during the day, hydrate.... but no so much.    too much drinking, not enough sleeping.... 2 am 10th ave pizza lol....

i slept in and caught up today! i was dragging the past few days.
it's ON tonight, though..
i'll try for mcgees around 3 but i'm not staying too long,
Jeff (HH) i wanna meet your wife but i won't be staying past 4:30 at mcgees (plan so far)

It makes no difference. And I was wearing my Last Waltz shirt!!!
Forum members were getting down to some Lionel, too! Fun fun fun.
but come on...there's nothing sexy about poop. Nothing.  -bbill

penny- maybe we should all order a few pizza pies and have them delivered to those of us on line outside T 5 around 5:00.  I intend to only stay at McGees for a short while before getting on line w the gang early again like last night.

will be very sad when this magical mystical week is over but WOW, ain't it been fun!
was some shakin' and some record playin'

First night seemed to be close to 11:30, each night they keep creeping later.

I realize this is an EXTREME long shot, but last night I bought an ISM shirt for my girlfriend, slung it over my shoulder and by the time I found her, the shirt was gone. She was devaststed and i felt so incredibly stupid. If anyone has an extra of any size - though, the smaller the better - I would compensate you handsomely to take it off your hands. Many thanks! Here's to a great final two nights!

According to some folks @ the venue, on Friday and Saturday the band may play up until 1:00am instead of the 12:00 restriction over the 1st three shows

It's a midnight restriction? That's still good to know. I know last night we must have been out at like 11:45. Tuesday I think was much closer to midnight.

I'm more pumped for Saturday going til 1 am since in a perfect world, the Encore will just be the new album in its entirety

whatever "system" security is using sucks.  even though we were towards the front of the line outside (rolled in around 4:30), just before they opened the gates to let us head up to the roof, they had us go from more or less a single file line to all bunching up/cramming together @ the gate.  so, folks who were there for hrs & hrs didn't necessarily get in first, as others who had strolled over later were able to push their way up & get a better spot in the line on the roof.

re.tar.ded.

not complaining about my spot for any of the shows; i've been very, very lucky w/ being no more than 3 people back from the rail.  last night's spot was great except for the fact that the 2 chicks on the rail directly in front of lil sis & me didn't dance, bob their heads, or make any kind of gestures or motion indicating that they were happy to be there.  statues.  they could've done that from the back.

of course, if they pop up w/ a taping i will be eating some humble pie.

Those covers in the encore are some of my all-time favorite songs.
