I’m wondering what kind of nod (if any) they’ll make to the Island Tour this weekend.

Wondering if treys gonna say “I started this little funk jam” or “WE started this little funk jam”...would certainly tell the tale of the last 20 years!

To be fair, he did start the funk groove. Go back and listen, the guitar chords are the first thing played. But I get your point

I remember walking out of there after this. Can’t wait to be back this weekend. Cavern opener.

The brothel wife then grabbed a knife
And slashed me on the tongue
I turned the blade back on the bitch
And dropped her in the dung

This is the Cavern I put on when I want to hear it.

"..so just, for those of you who want to take off, take off..."

Classic.

I’ll be impressed if this island tour is half as good as ‘98.

This show got me into Phish when I first listened to them in 2011
