I don't believe there is a consistent pattern. Just when you think it's one thing, they do the opposite. Kuddos to Eaton for keeping us on our toes. If there as a code to be cracked, we would have cracked it. Additionally, for the record, BM last year was a 77 second night and Elective first. DSO hasn't recreated a NYE show on NYE since 2014 when they did 84 I think? Personally I'd much rather an elective. My fav NYE shows over the years have been....09 Mattson's first NYE, utter psychedelic meltdown and a forum family private dance party in an obscure balcony of the Ram's Head 2013 in Long Island. Great Elective with an epic dance party in the back balcony. 2015 at Efactory. maybe one of the greatest shows I've seen period. Mostly early style elective, acoustic first set. 2017, last year, was really great too. Another Elective. But I'm intentionally missing NYE this year for the first time since Denver 06. Hanging out home with Friends instead. If i had to guess, i'd say in philly will be one Elective and one recreation, with the Elective highlighting songs of the Recreation's era that weren't played. Elective first, then a late 80s. Looking forward to these shows!

I'm attempting to listen to today from 1993. Its rough...like really not very good. I'm guessing the ambiance helped? Or drugs? As i type am kind of enjoying Vince's piano solo on eyes. Gna skip to days between. After a steady diet of 72-74...well...yeah.

Love that first set, very creative. I would have scrapped miracle instead of SMBH...

Maybe i should have booked my trip longer....why do they have to make it so difficult to change flights? I wish every airline was like southwest in that regard...

Well shit....if had known they were going to play all of these songs i might have driven up there. Alas, my cup is full till new years. But darn..

What the hell is pinning???

4-22-86...box>visions opener would have had me guessing elective. No I'm not there, reported from friend.

Man I'd love to hang with you freaks but i gotta head back West for a few weeks before returning for the holidays. Have a blast

Listening to recording, the bass bombs are audible. But no recording can capture that visceral feeling of being there in the skip zone

https://www.google.com/amp/s/nypost.com/2017/07/03/man-dies-after-vaping-liquid-fentanyl/amp/ I don't know. Could be "fake" news

I'm not ready to throw mdma in the same category as those other substances. Is it possibly harmful to health if over used? Yes. But the behavior that it elicits is loving. How to know if it's clean? There are tests for that.

Never seen a show end like this. I way confused. Word is that someone was passing around a vape pen with fentanyl in it. Seriously fucked up. Loved the Ship o fools and Stella

First set OG Feedback> ChinA rider Hurts me too (Lisa) Cryptical>other one>alligator>other one>cryptical Drums Viola lee bluez Second set based off 69 set. April something. Figure it out. Lovelight> Me and my uncle> Top of the world> Dark star> St Stephen> The eleven> Lovelight E. Morning dew F. Easy wind If you like 69 dead this was it. Maybe the best 60s I've seen to date, especially the 2nd set. A perfect three nights. Happy to be a part of this circus, grateful to my friends and family and THIS BAND. Now to recoup until the Peak...

Doubtful. I think it's time to switch gears completely...

3-25-90 Having been around a few places and having heard a few things...I'll say....i have never heard a Bass Bomb like tonight during truckin. Holy smokes...that shit rearranged my dna. Wow. Big energy in the palace tonight

I don't know where to start or finish....perhaps the beginning and the end.

I saw Holly Bowling last night in Ardmore, PA. Fucking sick! I'm a keyboard player and i dream of being able to do what she does. What a journey, opening with Help>Slip and closing with Slip>Franklin's. The middle of the sandwich was wonderful. I didn't know any of the phish songs but they were fun to hear on piano. Highlights for me were the HSF, cassidy, big weather report suite, brokedown palace....feel like I'm missing something else too but it was all good. I'll see her again.

....TOOT!

Technically she hit the car behind us into us.

you actually did! barely

Yes the weaving was wonderful!

I would say that the greatest blessings can happen anywhere, anytime. I've been taking some time off this last year+ but i think I'd like to step it up a notch. No children in my immediate future and the world needs more dancing. 'Spirit through movement' as fuzzy Brian once said.

Sometimes life after shows is so boring....

So great to spend another birthdaywith my favorite band in my favorite place with the best dance crew ever. I love you!

Only one word fof my feelings.....UGH!
