I heard some recordings yesterday from the Phish reunion shows in Hampton. Sounded good!

I guess the downloads are available for free on the Phish website.

I read in a magazine that the police confiscated over $1 million in drugs during these shows. Looking into this further, I find this highly suspect and perhaps an attempt to demonize the Phish crowd. One report said the police had confiscated some marijuana that was $2,500 per ounce. Really? Has anyone ever paid that much for something to smoke? With these inflated police estimates on cost, it makes it easier for them to claim the $1 million number. There also was someone caught with a bunch of nitrous oxide. I'm sure this was inflated and put into the number as well.

Are there drugs at concerts? Yes. Are the vast majority of Phish fans nice, kind, people? Yes.

I would rather be at a concert where everyone was smoking instead of being at a concert where everyone was binge drinking.

He was very happy when he got back from the three Phish reunion shows. He said they sounded very good and choose a great lineup of songs. He said the venue and the crowd were top notch. Now I'm even more jealous I didn't get to go.
