This week on the program I am joined by Dave Calarco and Parker Harrington and we embark on the wonderful journey that is reviewing the two Deer Creek and two Alpine Valley shows from summer 2012. These two classic Phish venues almost never disappoint and this year was no different. With the shows falling at just past the halfway point of tour, the boys were in full swing and dealt us beautifully crafted setlists, precise improvisation and some more stage antics. We could have thrown a dart at the setlists and hit a great clip each time but as usual cut down to what we felt were the ten best.
Thanks for listening,
-Steve

thanks for the episode guys. u did spell alpine wrong hehe. there is an article on phish.net which ranks the top second sets of leg 1. and i think alpine night one is ranked like tenth or eleventh. when i saw that i almost fell out of my chair. i listened to or was at every show this run and without a shadow of a doubt alpine night one second set is either the best set of the run or a close second to star lake. from start to finish the 2nd set at alpine delivers in a huge way. especially among soo many good second sets alpine and star lake stood out big time and that is saying ALOT. i dont know how you guys feel about that but thats my opinion

Been out of the loop for over a dozen episodes, and always listened in order, but I had to start with what I caught live of leg one. Great episode, guys. So glad you’re still at it. Cheers.
