Mendrix Nice review, well done. Glad you all had fun up here. The border crossing though? As we know well from crossing to go to shows down there...you just can't give them any reason. Keep your answers brief. Play the game the way they want it played. Anyways...It's a great venue. The lot scene is very chill. Lack of a proper Shakedown noted, but that's definitely a border crossing issue for some vendors, while others must just take a pass and move on to the next stop. Not surprised at the "no nitrous", as it's not really a thing up here, and clearly the Nitrous Mafia wouldn't even attempt a border crossing. Very refreshing coming out and not have to walk past that shit. We were disappointed in the no glowsticks policy though...my teenage daughters loaded up on them pre-show.
As for the show itself...I think it's criminal it's sitting at a 2.81 rating. No way this show deserves that. It's ranking lower than the Rochester 2013 show, and that is still, IMHO, the worst show I've been to, and when I say "worst", please know I mean that in a I'll take a "bad" Phish show over almost any other show out there, way. Phish, post-Baker's Dozen, doesn't even compare with some of that 2013 period. The boys are playing way better...less rip-cording, better segues, new material, and on and on. In fact, I'll take last night's show over the random juke-box affair that was Rochester 2016, as well. It was nice to read both review and comments supporting that.
