Just want to mention we had a great group of tapers tonight. That scene is still happening, so thanks to those around us who were down and just cool neighbors.

Not gonna mention the BIG one, but damn if Jibboo, Theme, Ether and Piper weren't just perfect additions...

Jibboo was a slower pace than normal (at least my remembering), and trey added a little bit of time throwing in some loops which was appreciated. Theme was very tight, and Mike had a few pockets to shine. They got to spread wings, but kept it dark, yum!

Ether Edge. Start up saw people sitting and worn out from the marathon that happened before, but leave it to phish to get you back on your toes. It was so delicate and, and, and, and then it got really focused. And patient. Very patient. This was the unexpected come down after The Beast. This might be my second fave jam of the night. It's really, really good.

Finally, Piper. I was fortunate enough to be at SPAC in 04, so that's my Piper summit. It's always in my mind as a comparison, and I'm trying to stop that. This is a very solid, polished piper. After the Tweez, having solid footing songs that are focused and dialed was such a special thing. And this was a good one.

That's it. There is a baseball game tomorrow (today) and I should be lights out, but listening to these tapes, reading the board....it was just a damn special night.
