The boys are back! The Official Phish Summer Tour 2011 Thread!

Well, it's that time of the year again, and Phish summer tour has begun in Bethel, NY. I'm not sure if there are any other phans out there (besides blankwaters, of course), but is there any ATSers hitting any shows soon? I will be picking the tour up in Mansfield and following it until I'm broke or it ends. Here is the rundown so far:

Friday, 05/27/2011

Bethel Woods Center for the Arts, Bethel, NY
Set 1: Tweezer > My Friend, My Friend, Poor Heart, Roses Are Free > Funky Bitch, Wolfman's Brother[1] -> Walk Away, Stash, Bouncing Around the Room, Kill Devil Falls, Bold As Love
Set 2: Carini > Back on the Train, Boogie On Reggae Woman > Waves > Prince Caspian > Crosseyed and Painless > Wading in the Velvet Sea > Possum, The Squirming Coil

Saturday, 05/28/2011

Bethel Woods Center for the Arts, Bethel, NY
Set 1: Theme From the Bottom, NICU, Cities, Halley's Comet > Runaway Jim, Gumbo > Quinn the Eskimo > Limb By Limb, Horn, Bathtub Gin[1]
Set 2: Down with Disease > Free > Backwards Down the Number Line > Makisupa Policeman[2] -> Harry Hood > Cavern > David Bowie
Encore: A Day in the Life

[2] With lyrics referencing several band members' houses (and Trey's favorite show, House).


Here is a clip from last night's Quinn the Eskimo, it gives a decent idea of the rock n roll side of the band.



And here is one of their classics. Caution: Highly sophisticated music ahead. Not for those who can't handle music that isn't in 4/4 time.

Nice. There should be a lot of custy money going around. I'm looking forward to the festival especially. I will be selling beer all along the way to try to pay for some gas and tickets. Tour is a lot more expensive these days than it used to be.

I should have rocks, wire wraps, GRC hats, a few shirts, and maybe some glass wares. Look out for me...
