From the top of the lawn I had a surveillance-tower-view of the audience.

The sun wasn’t even setting when the Phish came out onstage. A quick stop to the evidence locker and I’m ready for my first time seeing The Phish. So why am I addressing you all on her behalf? Because I traditionally have Saturday nights off duty and Miss Stamatis was kind enough to furnish me with her ticket on the auspices that I’d fulfill her obligation to review the concert. But anyone offended by her crude humor can heartily laugh now that she’s spending what should be her 175th show locked in a metal cage with a wooden plank for a bed, tripping her tits off. Apparently Miss Stamatis found it funny to print 100 t-shirts that read, “Let Phish Suck Ass,” following their ill-fated tour stop in Wilmington, NC.

The charge? Pennsylvania Penal Code 4419: Attempt to distribute counterfeit merchandise. Suspect was apprehended and taken into custody with the aid of three plain clothes Hanover PD officers and two K-9 units. Saturday, July 22, approx 2:30pm, the Pavilion at Star Lake. We made our way down through the lawn to some great seats in the 100 level, cognizant of the relatively early start times at some recent shows and were in place ready to go by 7:30. Shakedown was busting with energy in the late afternoon sun and, asking for a friend, do the nitrous vendors always wear Phish T-Shirts? Time quickly slipped by, and we entered the venue almost painlessly thanks to some very friendly and efficient staff (although I did hear others had a hard time getting in) and quickly found ourselves at the top of the lawn, looking over the lake with a breeze cooling everyone down a bit spirits were high, and pushed higher by a food vendor blaring some studio Phish at the top of the lawn (never heard that before).

After the obligatory meal at Dinosaur BBQ, we parked at Destiny Mall, wondering if that name foreshadowed a potential bustout, and biked four miles on a bike path along Onondaga Lake, with no sign of the three-eyed fish that graced a very cool poster for the show, and quickly found our way on to the lot, which hosted a relaxed and friendly pre-show scene over quite the linear series of lots. Rain’s been too present of late, causing serious flooding in Vermont and upstate New York, as well as an early ending to an earlier show, so it was a relief to have a dry forecast in store for Sunday. My friend Chris ( and I left Burlington Vermont Sunday morning to drive to the show, and after a very weird summer weather-wise so far, it felt great to be on the road under smoke-free blue skies. While only Phish’s ninth show in the Salt City and the first since 2016, the stars aligned last night, and the band treated around 15,000 fans to almost three hours of fun last night. 10 shows in to summer tour, the rust has been shaken off, new songs are being woven into the mix and jammed out, and much fun is being had on stage. Phish played an absolute barnburner of a Sunday show last night, gracing Jon Fishman’s hometown and a great lakeside venue with fiery, energetic, and creative playing. I know there are Camden defenders out there, but The Mann is the best. The lot scene is among the best, and the band is clearly comfortable and happy coming back to this venue. Beautiful venue, great staff, great sound, great surroundings.

Probably goes without saying, but what the hell: The Mann is amazing. We have a couple new awesome Phish tunes on our hands.Īfter a couple of fun days of post-show / pre-show / bus rides in partnership with the Ardmore Music Hall, we rolled into The Mann ready to soak in the second night of the run. Rinse, repeat.īut that "Down With Disease" > "The Well," wow. Two minutes later, a new trailblazer appears. Every time someone came into the box, they were so happy-they were the first person to ever think of sneaking into a box! And then within 30 seconds, the security guy was back. Partially because I was distracted by a hilarious game of whack-a-wook between a security guard and a box that was empty for most of the night. For a variety of reasons, Tuesday's show didn't flow for me like it did for a lot of people. After decades of seeing Phish, we all have our preferences.
