Text of the page (random words):
excursion that depicted the arrival of the departed soul into the never ending bliss of infinite existence or in western terms heaven the heaviness of this set long metaphysical journey arrived in deliverance a liberation into the dimension of purity and truth our eternal home steeped in serenity and wonder the mystic communion that transpired during sunday night s set was on an entirely different level than anything that has ever happened at a phish show this was so much more than music this was about divine light that lives within us all this light is what the essence of phish has always been about but never had it come so face to face with an actual event in which a soul moved through the stages of existence in the presence of and to the knowledge of the band and so many in attendance with their performance phish musically communed with the departed soul present in the room shepherding it on its inter dimensional journey into infinity death is a sad occurrence on the earthly plane because no longer can people enjoy that particular soul in human form but death is also the most beautiful part of life a soul s transition into everlasting bliss phish s willingness to embrace a tragedy and take part in this transcendental process was the most awe inspiring event i have witnessed and it brought my esteem for the band and their role as conduits between us and the divine into a whole new domain of reverence the ethos of phish music has always been connected to the divine trey has spoken at length throughout his career about attaining a musical proficiency in which the band can get out of the way and become invisible allowing the music to pass through them and speak for itself in a 1994 interview with steve a spirit family read more dancing in a dream poseted in uncategorized on august 17 2021 by mr miner atlantic city jake silco via phish that was a complete fucking blowout phish dropped the gauntlet on sunday night in ac staging a two set musical showcase that put a indelible exclamation point on their first tour since fall 2019 carrying serious momentum from note one and strewn with improv from start to finish sunday night s show was truly a night to remember played with purpose with two beautifully flowing sets of music the tour closer on the beach illustrated what can happen when all the elements of a show fall into place this night brought a crescendo to the weekend in in the beach as phish appears to be in a superb place as they look towards a brief leg two of summer and a longer fall tour down the road the centerpiece of sunday s show was the exquisitely flowing fifty minute suite that kicked off the second set carini set your soul free beneath a sea of stars piper carini the improv within these jams naturally moved from one to another covering a vast amount of diverse musical ground carini s jam ignited this run with a soaring trajectory quickly modulating into an uplifting and celebratory plane the interplay of trey s clean sky scraping melodies and page s triumphant grand piano work led phish through this promised land following its peak trey smoothly switched guitar tones and the rest of the band seamlessly followed him into a more modern section of music characterized by their summer 21 sound set your soul free featured shreddy atonal guitar leads laid over a swing beat from fishman that created a musical juxtaposition with the mellifluous carini jam phish deconstructed the second piece of this improvisational puzzle towards its end blending its quiet conclusion into beneath a sea of stars throughout their career phish has always been masters at playing to their environment and this selection provided a lustrous example of this phenomenon the delicate centerpiece of trey s ghosts of the forest project fit perfectly on the beach and even its lyrics the lights are flashing and the waves are crashing depicted the boardwalk and the ocean that lined the two sides of the venue this gentle passage provided a mellow interlude in the larger musical statement while keeping the improvisational vibes flowing however the most forward looking highlight of this extended combination began as phish melted from sea of stars into piper quickly building out of the song s lyrical opening the band crafted a high intensity excursion into a dark avant garde frontier this piece represents experimental phish at its finest peppered with modern tones from trey mike and page the jam was driven by fishman s uptempo crash cymbal heavy rhythms but when he subtly slipped into a groove adding a backbeat to his work the music transformed into some abstract psychotic phish grooves inject this stuff into my veins the band wrapped up this musical package when trey smoothly offered the carini lick into this menacing mixture and the band smoothly segued back into the set opener completing a spectacular run of a multi stage musical drama phish continued with waves the third ocean themed song in a row but arguably added one too many songs to the end of the set wedging simple and about to run in before first tube closed the frame with vibes on high perhaps they could have eliminated about to run and jammed waves into simple adding a bit more cohesion to the back end of the set but even as it stood it was all but perfect and nothing could be finer than a fluffhead encore a choice that encapsulated the feeling of the entire evening once again the band absolutely crushed the opening set of the show a trend of which i just can t get enough it seemed as though trey wanted a d0 over for saturday night s botched version as he started the intro to scents and subtle sounds but as the song hit a point of transition he faked everyone out by splashing into moma dance immediately electrifying the show extending the funk number into an earnest out of structure improvisation phish had clearly come to play in their concluding show of tour moma s jam segued into the final hurrah before a nasty mid set mike s song brought the second legitimate highlight of the night this trio of songs comprised almost 35 minutes of standout dance based phish and the show had just started and to close out this monster opening frame you enjoy myself a dead mint first set through and through i really hope that this atlantic city beach party becomes a bi annual affair as the set up is just perfect and very hassle free the sound is great throughout the massive venue and it seems that everyone found a spot that they liked it really worked out great from all aspects and thus concludes leg one of summer 2021 what a run it has been when phish announced this summer tour i really hoped they would come out with a new sound to their improvisation i had felt that 2019 had grown somewhat stagnant and they needed some sort of sonic shift to keep things moving forward and boy did they bring one the band sounds refreshed and rejuvenated from their forced time off and the rest of the year pandemic provided looks to contain quite a lot of musical adventure phish is back to pushing the envelope with fresh sounding jams and breaking ground with experimental interplay and this my friends is how we like it i the landlady scents and subtle sounds the moma dance the final hurrah mike s song i am hydrogen weekapaug groove the sloth roggae back on the train you enjoy myself ii carini set your soul free beneath a sea of stars part 1 piper carini waves simple about to run first tube e fluffhead backwards down the number line atlantic city andrea nusinov that was a complete fucking blowout phish dropped the gauntlet on sunday night in ac staging a two set musical showcase that put a indelible exclamation point on their first tour since fall 2019 carrying serious momentum from note one and strewn with improv from start to finish sunday night s show was truly a night to dancing in a dream read more the in sound from way out poseted in uncategorized on august 15 2021 by mr miner atlantic city jake silco via phish phish came back to the beach on saturday night and showcased the exploratory and innovative side of their improvisational game veering from the groove centric affair on friday night with abstract improvisation dispersed through both halves saturday night s show became a playground of the mind leading the audience down dark corridors in every major jam musical diversity is phish s calling card and tonight they focused their lens firmly on experimental playing one of the best developments of this summer has been band s substantive first sets it really changes the dynamic of a show when phish plays two halves of engaging music and that s what they did once again on saturday the opening set centered on two separate three song sequences the first coming right off the bat in the show opening trio of slow llama tube and destiny unbound this run ignited the show with a bevy of dance rhythms right off the bat a trend that wouldn t continue the other trifecta that served to deepen the music came in the form of reba in which trey unleashed a delectable solo soul shakedown party and the unquestionable standout of the opening frame split open and melt following up nashville s all timer phish uncorked another mind bending version on saturday that saw an incredibly patient band cohere to sculpt a hypnotic experiment in sound although the band was clearly listening and responding to each other meticulously the resulting conversation presented as a single piece of abstract art this jam showcased phish s ability to play as a single entity focusing less on melody and rhythm but more exclusively on textures and layers that envelop the listener in a fully immersive sonic environment some truly avant garde music the second set centered on the superb sequence of drowned ghost that saw phish craft completely innovative and original jams out of both pieces the band took the who s rock anthem on a wild ride that passed through its rock based structured outro and modulated through a melodic segment en route to a churning and mechanical musical space in this astounding arrival trey favored repetition and darker tones in creating a drone based and meditative mantra my favorite excursion of the night came next in an utterly original take on ghost this jam continued the trance inducing improvisational vibe of the night as the band crafted a slow paced and menacing passage with each band member offering minimalist contributions that created a masterful whole fishman s delicate cymbal work created a shimmering framework to the music while his drumbeat formed a slow burning backing groove that kept this piece glued together and before one even realized what was happening the band pulled off a seamlessly smooth segue into scents and subtle sounds at this point in the set much like when everything s right started on friday it felt like we were on the verge of an all time frame of phish but as the scents jam started there seemed to be some miscommunication on stage even so the jam was right there for the taking but instead of righting the ship trey quickly grew impatient and bailed out hard into chalkdust in an inexplicably jarring move that completely busted the flow of the set honestly there are few decisions that would have made less sense at this juncture and fishman even called him out at the beginning of chalkdust for the debacle the ensuing jam in chalkdust actually got quite intricate and interesting reprising the abstract feel of the split jam from earlier in the show but it
