My eighth and ultimate Phish present of 2022 was the night time the place I entered the world with the least expectations. The earlier night time (posted right here) had been such an impressive efficiency, that I felt like this present was principally a “bonus”. However man, did Phish disagree. 12/30/22 is at the moment on the prime of the yearly statistics because the highest rated present, and for good motive. This present smoked from the opening notes of crowd favourite opener “Down With Illness”, and continued all through the primary set together with a decent “Reba”. However the highlights of this present for me weren’t the “hits”, however reasonably the 2 songs that opened the primary forty minutes of the second set. “No Man’s > Golden Age” have been so properly jammed and veered off into such fascinating territory that I misplaced observe of what tune what really being performed. But it surely didn’t matter. This was Phish 4.0 at its finest, and like all three of the New 12 months’s week reveals I attended, I felt fortunate to be there to see it.
I recorded this set as I had the 12/29 set, with the Neumann hypers from an advantageous place within the first row of the taper’s part, and the sound high quality is excellent. Take pleasure in!
