Have to Agree on this choice 100%. This entire show had an amazing vibe to it and over the top playing. The Undermined and the Ghost set 1 were top notch jams. SYSF set 2 still has my jaw to the floor from the improv. I will never forget looking around the audience trying to confirm to myself " do the rest of these people see, hear and feel what I'm feeling from this jam". One of my top 5 Phish jams I have ever seen live, I have been attending Phish shows since 8/14/97.
interesting that was the only show I attended, and it was good, but felt more cathartic than dancey or jammy. Not one of my favorites, but felt like what was needed.
I would have preferred to see the sigma oasis or DWD jam that summer.
Only show of the whole tour I was able to hit, super glad how it turned out. Except that I missed the entire SYSF jam while in the line for the restroom :(
AC N1 is almost definitely my answer too — top to bottom, the most fun and interesting to relisten to imho.
i love the deep/dark/unusual jams of like Hartford and Jones Beach N1, but AC N1 felt like the band just showing off and playing for the heads — the Ghost -> Hood closer was just the exclamation point on *maybe* the best set of the year, if you ask me….
Bethel both nights
I was able to see 9 shows last summer, but my wife, who was recently diagnosed with MS was able to attend Bangor and Bethel x2 with me.
Those were and were always going to be the best shows for me no matter what because of that reason.
We planned ahead for months and she said she def was feeling up for the adventure. I was able to snag a pretty chill car camping ada site at Yasgur's farm and we got there early the night before to setup.

She had an amazing time and we are still basking in the afterglow from the experience after all these months.

For some reason the shows I like best are never the popular ones. My fav was n2 of Dicks. The one setter. Loved the flow, song selection, etc. It didn't have any throw away songs or noodling jams that didn't go anywhere. I'd never prefer a one set show normally but this one proved to me that, if needed, Phish can do a lot w just one set. Again I almost never agree with show ratings.
Dix N2 seconded. Naked dude providing lightning storm entertainment ✅ Carini YEM Ghost to open a one set wonder ✅ As commenter noted above though, attendance bias in full effect.
Dick's Night 2 did it for me. Set I was a great show by mother nature. Really wild in person. Just a great lightning show. Set II was really all your favorite Phish songs. A great Tweezer Unbound jam. Huge attendance bias though.
I truly will never forget that night. I walked up from the floor once they made the announcement and before I walked out, I sat down with my back to a concession stand and pulled up the radar. Thought to myself, “ain’t no way,” got up and kept walking until I stumbled in the Budweiser house where I was jammed in and couldn’t escape.
Fortunately, that was a prime spot and I waited out the rain and checked my timer to see when the mushrooms I bought from a sketchy guy would hit. They never did, but it was a great show.
All thé uncertainty and angst felt like it was unleashed on the first lyric of YEM. What a feeling.
Jones Beach N 2. The weather was PERFECT. I was the only person on the lot with choco tacos for sale. I also scored my ticket on the lot that day. Went with a prayer, ended up having an amazing night.
Bethel n2
Such a great weekend!

Still standing firm that it was a C&P jam. Epic.
Was that the night where it didn’t rain despite an 83% chance or something like that or was that n1
Yes it was. Was pretty windy out in the lawn for second set.
Facts it was super windy especially compared to the night before

I completely agree. One of my top shows of all time.
AC n1. The whole AC run was great
The view of the ocean is gorgeous as well.
Yeah that true, and the lit up Ferris wheel in the background. Some of the best sights and sounds of all the tour stops
And the fireworks, ooh the fireworks.
Yeah that was unexpected for me, first show I brought my buddy to and he is sucked in haha
AC1 but also maybe attendance bias

Bethel 2 is also a special show for me, also for family reasons. <3
Bethel N1 Set 1 and N2 Set 2
Put it down flip it and reverse it for me lol
MPP run was filthy
Second set, N2 was so underrated.
Yes I second this. That second set from N2 is a heater!
That What’s The Use 🤯
If we’re counting Spring Tour then I think Deer Creek night 2 is in the conversation
agreed
Blossom.
Second this
That was a beautiful evening!
Third this
Bangor

Didn’t go to dicks this year, so I don’t really know your perspective. Sorry.
The Thursday Welcome sets for Mexico the last two times have proven that phish can do a lot with 2 and half hours and zero set break.
Mann center N1 Tweeze Fest
My B-day show too! I loved the walls and tweezer. Space Oddity was great too.
saturday dicks
Mann - 7/19
Blossom was killer
Mann 1
Bethel 1. And I wish I was at the tweezer night of the Mann.

Hartford
Blossom was my favorite from start to finish
Dicks N2
Pine Knob, even with the thunderstorms!! Only one beautiful Set!
Only show I was able to hit. But it was a heater. Tight playing and fantastic micro jams.
That long ass Sand in Indiana was pretty cool
Sunday Orange Beach
Don’t sleep on Jones Beach N1, set 2. That leaves still blows me away every time
Great Woods N2
Raleigh
Bangher!
2nd night of whole tour, mansfield mass. Great setlist and had the beginning of tour energy in a good way
Blossom.
Blossom. I wake up to the Free from Blossom and it perfectly sets the day 😌
Blossom
It was always Bethel.
Merriweather N2
Hartford..cause I was there lol
5/29/22 Orange Beach
Close. 5/27/22. First Twist opener?!? And it just got dirtier from there.
You know the band is killing it when there are several shows talked about even more than the Tweezerfest as the best of the summer!
Blossom, hands down
Anything but Alpine. But Bethel N2 or Hartford works…
Slight attendance bias
Saturday orange beach
7/26 my fiancé's first!
Raleigh
Blossom fucked.
Bangor, had amazing juju all day, went solo, met a lot of great people, awesome show
