Welcome To Now

Tonight, Phish closes out the first leg of their summer tour with a Sunday night performance at the classic summer getaway Alpine Valley in East Troy, WI. The last two night’s have witnessed some pretty stellar song selection and fantastic playing. The second set jam sequences from Deer Creek are phenomenal – AHIHTOS > Drowned > Twist followed by a monster Tweezer > 2001 > Suzy Greenberg > Possum taboot. First time bustouts for the tour include The Connection and Sleeping Monkey at Deer Creek followed by Makisupa Policeman and Hendrix’s Fire at Alpine night 1. The band’s clearly pulling out all the stops for the end of the tour and it’s exciting to think of what is in store for this evening. Gamehenge classics Tela and Cololnel Forbin’s > Famous Mockingbird are yet to be brushed off by Phish 3.0. Anything’s possible, but my bets are on Hood, First Tube, Slave to the Traffic Light, Divided Sky, and The Curtain for tonight.
