kevinAreHollo In a feeble attempt to get this discussion back on track... (what's the record for posts on here, anyway? Timer? ;)

Does anyone remember the Jon Pareles-penned piece in the New York Times, published during the same week of the reunion shows?

http://www.nytimes.com/2009/03/05/arts/music/05phish.html />
It was this article and interview more than anything else that led to a severe case of the drainbows. It's not that I want a flag to wave, or one show to hold up to the canon as fodder for "Greatest Evah!"

I just want them to live up to these words:

"Late last year the four band members came together, by themselves, to make music in Mr. Anastasio’s Burlington barn and studio. They liked what they heard. And they resolved to be the version of Phish they prized most: the intently practiced, well-prepared Phish from the mid-90s."
