"Ruby Waves" from Phish's 7/14/2019 show at Alpine Valley Music Theatre in East Troy, WI. Download the entire show now or stream via LivePhish+ at livephi.sh/ph190714
Never listened to Phish until recently. I missed out on a lot of decent jamming. Phish is a class act and I'm thrilled to have been introduced to them.
You haven’t missed out, you just have some catching up to do! Lucky for you, thousands of hours of stuff out there for you to listen to. Welcome phriend!
It’s criminal how underrated Mike Gordon is in the bass community, he is one of the greatest modern bass players around. He can play any style and his pocket is so deep...legend
He can slap like nobody’s business...he can finger funk with the best of them...he can walk like an upright player...his knowledge of scales and keys allows him the ability to play super melodic lines where he doesn’t stress the root. As someone who plays bass it’s amazing to watch and hear and he does it so effortlessly
I don't think anyone who knows bass and knows mike underrates him. I personally put him in the top 2 bassists alive rn. Maybe uneducated or unknowledgable people underrate him but most people I know think he either is the or is one of the best bassists playing right now.
mac stacks I just mean there are plenty of styles of music I dislike but I know amazing players when I hear them...the only people I meet who love Mike are Phish fans, it’s rare I talk to someone who dislikes Phishs music but goes on about Mike. And that is a foolish crime
I think it's because Mike's talent isn't too apparent on studio releases (this isn't a bad thing). So many of the songs where Mike is dropping bombs and laying into unbelievable grooves only happen on stage (and many of the great bass-driven Phish songs they play live don't even have a studio version...and so many others are live covers). I just don't think the everyday person who ranks bass players has any idea of how good he is because they're so album-minded.
This was THE jam of the summer. They kept bringing it down like it was going to end, but would revive it....about seven times with different type 2 jams each time. As a 28 year phish fan I can honestly say this show was a a gift from the band to us. They are so plugged in it's redonkulous. They are way ahead of their time. Also, the lyrics in Ruby Waves really grab me.
Thank you man I'm sick of all the jaded "old school" fan's hating on 3.0 it's good to see someone giving credit where credit is due. They're playing so tight rn it's incredible.
@@macstacks2451 FWIW, every old-school fan I know (which is pretty much the only kind of fan I know) is pretty excited about 3.0, especially since summer 2015. There's no doubt the band can still blow the doors off the venue.
This is so effing good. How they can still pull off something this epic after 30+ years is beyond me, but thank god they can. Just a pleasure to see them live. We need an "anatomy of a jam" video for this one.
@Jason Smith That's what 90% of other jam bands have missed. It took over a decade to get to Cowfunk. You can't skip 6 main courses just to get to the ice cream. Cause then your ice cream is lame ass white soulless bullshit "funk"
@@collectivevolutionover 40 years now. For the last 8 years or so, they are more incredible each time I see them than any time I’ve seen them before that. Still ascending to their career peak. As hard as it is to imagine , their begs is still to come. Let that really sink in
Such a different band than the one I first heard in '91 but still just as talented and imaginative as ever. What an amazing band, what amazing musicians!!!
i consumed mushrooms for this show and it was absolutely perfect. When Ruby Waves hit I left my body and floated up under the roof of the pavilion. I saw a few other souls up there with me. Magical moments
My phandom started this summer as a randomly picked up a live Phish album, Slip Stitch and Pass. I was instantly hooked and couldn't believe I had missed these guys the first 40 years of my life. Due to work this summer I couldn't make any live shows, but have been catching the webcast religiously and can honestly say that while watching Alpine night 3, you could tell it was one of those "transcendent" shows I've been reading/hearing about.. It was an amazing experience to behold and I envy those whom where there in person. Looking forward to Dicks and of course possibly meeting some of you other Phans out on the summer 2020 tour!
I'm so relieved to see that someone else is feeling like Phish flew under their radar. I've known they were good but I never thought about checking out their shows on youtube until April 2020... yes, 4/20.
That night I experienced something on that lawn I can not describe. All I know is I can't wait for 2020 tour. Thank you Trey, Mike, page, fish, and ck5. Will never forget that weekend.
That’s what this music is at it’s finest people....it’s Psychedelic Gospel. It will carry you to merge with the Divine and return you to your earthly role with a heart and head full of wisdom and compassion
@@thomasjefferson5169 yeah cuz i like even softer more brain dead music than phish... I listen to 30 min noise jams. And gg allin played backwards against 90s hiphop beats.
Years of 3.0 space jamming lead up to and evolved to this. I really think this is the star to a new era of phish. This show was only the tip of the iceberg
Jake Havenridge was there this weekend as well. The music was one thing, but I’ve never felt energy that indescribable in a crowd. Gotta love the P fish
@@novakaya torches of love? Its drippy crap. And not executed that well. Sorry but the best phish and trey are him waxed on something. Sad to say but oh so true. 3.0? Are they software releases? Y'all pine for monikers too much.
I unexpectedly was able to attend these 3 Alpine shows. I was in Chicago for work that week with the intent of flying back home to Lafayette, LA then fly out to Connecticut the following Monday. Well that weekend Tropical Storm Barry came thru and made air travel difficult in and out of that area. So I got the OK to stay in Chicago area for the weekend and fly out on Monday. Bought 3 lawn tix off Stubhub and drove an hour to the shows all weekend. Alpine Valley is incredible, the vibe is just awesome. And these shows were just insane, especially the Sunday show and especially this Ruby Waves. It just kept going and going. And after so many bust outs in that 1st set. I’m so happy that storm rolled thru my hometown. Can’t wait for the next shows I’ll be able to attend! Greatest band on this planet!
FWIW, in the future - you can almost always get lawn tickets for Alpine right up to the day of show. it's so huge that they rarely sell out. Great that you got to see these shows in person, I had something similar happen with Blossom and it's the best kind of serendipity.
I'm at the point now where I'm watching moments like Page right before 23:00, and thinking 'what are you thinking Page?... you're looking at it, and? what strokes of genius are going through your head as you look at that keyboard almost quizzically? and then you move over to it and invoke magical sonic soulblasts upon us. .. and there are so many good moments like that in this song. They are locked in the zone here, and we are so lucky these moments were captured.
My thoughts exactly. I have been seing jambands for about a decade, but I'd only seen Phish 3 times before this (I didn't really grow up with them like the generation before me). Those three times were between underwhelming and satisfying, but I never walked away thrilled. This show was thrilling. I get it now, and I want more.
IWannaSandwich I don’t doubt you saw an underwhelming Phish show. They happen. It’s the nature of their style. But I’d love to which show you were at that you thought was underwhelming. You don’t happen to remember what show it was do you? You should check out the 8/22/2015 Tweezer > Prince Caspian. There’s a video on TH-cam with 600k+ views. I’d love to know your thoughts on that. I’ve seen Phish about 50 times and that’s the best thing I’ve seen them do. I was blown away.
haha, i'm right there w/ u, bud. like, if anyone asks me to do the thought experiment: I'm stuck on a desert island 4eva, and I can only have one artist/band, alive or dead, to play live shows for me, who wud it be--hands down, not even a contest, it's the boys. the dead, bob marley, pink floyd, bob dylan, the beatles, mozart, django reinhardt, coltrane, p-funk---they all are on the list--but they b a distant second! now, if the question is, i could only have one album to listen to...that's a different story, lol. and i bet the boys would agree 1000%:))))
Today marks 16 years since first walking into Alpine to see Phish, last weekend definitely brought the Phish journey full circle capped off by being 5 rows deep in the pit Sunday. This is an all-timer for sure
Mick Wagner what a weird comment. And no they are no longer God’s chosen. You’ll probably the first to believe in the anti-Christ with that view of yours. The modern Jew, more specifically the Zionist leaders, are headed toward ruling the entire world which will set up the beast system. As the Apostle Paul wrote “not all of Israel is Israel” because they rejected the Son and killed him even. Jesus also said in Luke “And do not presume to say to yourselves, ‘We have Abraham as our father,’ for I tell you, God is able from these stones to raise up children for Abraham.” Only those that believe in Jesus Christ in truth are His chosen (i.e. children)
Yeah, that was cool. I caught the soft part of the tour (second Bangor, both SPACs, and both Fenways) and I really wish I saw the Camden and Alpine shows instead. They were amazing at both Sunday night shows at those venues. However, I've been seeing Phish since 1994 and have seen around 150 shows (or many more), so I'm not complaining. :)
Hands down the best Phish show I have ever experienced (Watching that evil jam glowstick war at 22:00 from the pit was one of the coolest things I've ever seen). Thank you for giving so many of us such a personal and touching show. And don't forget kids, read the damn book!
Dang, I should have looked back at 22:00 haha I was pit in front of Trey! The arm swings during Contact blew my mind though. I felt I was seeing the band at a private club until I looked back.
I'm lookin' at the clouds and thinkin' "I don't remember any fog machines when I saw these guys a few years back!" I love you all Can't wait to see you again Keep on! edit: My favorite part of seeing Phish live is it's the only place I've ever been where I can just start dancing and not feel weird or self-conscious. At all.
Years ago I'd stick my surfboard in front of some speakers and play Voodoo Chile, Slight Return, so it could absorb the vibes Now I stick my head in front of some speakers and absorb Ruby Waves
25:20 Page building up. The next couple minutes hearing Page match on through the rhythm into a singular own melodic tune was just a piece of the constructive masterpiece thatvl is being performed. So many incredible layers from each musician flowing into each other as a weave of harmonious notes.They're beasts.
They could have segued at the 27 min mark and phans would have still been blasted. But, NO! They completely annihilated Alpine Valley in the last 10 minutes. Every molecule in my body was vibrating. Unreal.
Blue morning, walking down the street Hear the rhythm from the soles of my feet On the pavement, and I reach out my hands And touch the building that's beside me And I look into the air up above my head Thin layer of clouds and the open sky All the stars are handles on doors If I could touch 'em with my fingers they would open up And a sea of love, ruby waves would pour down on my head An ocean of love would carry me up from this prison of lies If I could touch the stars with my fingertips, the doors would open all around me Could escape from this prison of lies and swim in the ocean up above my head When I die I'll turn into a tiny ball of energy And I'll go flipping and floating up into the sky And bounce off the stars like a pinball machine, look around All the lights on the machine are flashing 'Til they explode and the particles join up with... A sea of love, ruby waves pourin' down on my head An ocean of love would carry me up from this prison of lies If I could touch the stars with my fingertips, the doors would open all around me Could escape from this prison of lies Could escape from this prison of lies
Tuesday I'll glad I'll gladly pay you back on Tuesday I'm a ruby Smuggler yes I Rastafari Tucson Arizona Sonoran Desert keep on keeping on swim with the cactus float with the stone baked like a snake in the Sun yes I Pisces
It's really awesome hearing this song weave its way into the main Phish fabric. My wife and I were lucky enough to get to GoTF and hear this whole catalog of Trey's personal narrative story come to life. I actually cried (nearly sobbed!) during "Friend"...lol. But to hear this song so naturally roll into 3.0's folio, is truly special....and just shows how cohesive and the band is. If a song's good. A song's good. Let it play.
Wow. Phish is on FIRE lately, like literally playing the best they have in years. This band never fails to give me literal chills. My hairs wont go down from the constant goosebumps. Love it love it love it
Not sure a Ruby Waves will ever come to life like this one ever again. Who knows, I also said the same thing after the bomb factory tweezer and went gin...
Only 11:50 in. This is too much for words. WOW! Haha! Completely amazing. Best band I've ever imagined hearing. Thank you and the amazing family. It's still going as I'm typing. Gotta go. This is getting crazy.
I'm so so glad that I was alive (am alive) the same time these 5 band members carved out magic for all of us to enjoy. Magic. Pure Blissfully, Magic! Major Fan from 1993 and had my first show just after I got my license at 17 at the GREAT WENT. 39 and still loving them! They just keep getting better with age. So incredibly lucky we are.
thank you for sharing. Knew the potential Ruby Waves had when i first heard it. Hands down my favorite GOTF song. Blessed to have caught this. Insane night.
What a show my bro and I are still drooling, Phish is on the top of thier game. I mean come on we had dancing, the fishman VAC, a meatstick, trampolines, mike plays the drill. Where else can you get all that entertainment in a live music event
Grateful that these guys are still creating new music and having so much fun playing it for all of us. 36 years and going stronger than ever. Simply are the best to me.
Don't even listen to or know phish much but I was so mesmerized and entertained with this performance I didn't even realize I was already 30 minutes into it by the time I checked.
This was such a great and fun show! We took our 2 and 4 year old and had a blast in the back of the lawn! It was a different kind of phun watching them dance the whole time! I honestly didn't even realize I witnessed this jam until after listening back!

We couldn’t be happier to have you. Tour is right around the corner...
Welcome friend! You have a lot of catching up to do :)

Welcome phriend!
@@troyweber841 Troy, check out Jonny Lang on this jam. He about freaked me out. Whoa Nelly!!! Hope you watch it.
Well Mike, you're a year ahead of me... catching up is my jam.
this woulda been great if they jammed on it for a bit.
Haha. Had to comment. Thank you for the laugh!
They only to tend to jam out Lawn Boy lately.
Right? Of course Trey aborted after only 38 minutes. Probably so he could squeeze more dad rock into the set.
Love it!
69th like, faceplant into cawk
My first ever phish show. Better than words could ever describe. I could feel colors when people were throwing the glowsticks. Unbelievable experience
You should thank the person that introduced you I’m so glad my older brother relentlessly tried to make me a Phan. Took me to 8 shows before I got it!
Welcome aboard!
Just 'til you start tasting the colour. Then you're a Phish fan man.
You got a LEGENDARY first show. May it be the first of many many more.
Lmao fucking Wooks with their sticks. Those lights man, that’s the fucking nectar

Depending on who you ask, this is THE jam of 3.0. I have a slight preference for Tahoe Tweezer but this takes a close #2...

I am loving the Space Frequencies here :-D
Jason Fladager all so true!
Still drooling, what a gift they gave us Sunday and the entire weekend. Fishman so plugged in its not even funny, guy's a machine.
I love this band!
a beast!
Fish is grooving SO HARD around 32-33 minutes. Hands down tour mvp imo!
How the heck does he do it?
I have seen this band over 70 times. This might be the most magical and favorite shows of them all. This is what Phish is all about!
This is so effing good. How they can still pull off something this epic after 30+ years is beyond me, but thank god they can. Just a pleasure to see them live. We need an "anatomy of a jam" video for this one.
you’re in luck, i believe the next anatomy of a jam video is on this song
Shout out Anatomy of a Jam! Awesome vids :)
They pull it off because they don't have day jobs.
@Jason Smith That's what 90% of other jam bands have missed. It took over a decade to get to Cowfunk. You can't skip 6 main courses just to get to the ice cream. Cause then your ice cream is lame ass white soulless bullshit "funk"
@@collectivevolutionover 40 years now. For the last 8 years or so, they are more incredible each time I see them than any time I’ve seen them before that.

Such a different band than the one I first heard in '91 but still just as talented and imaginative as ever. What an amazing band, what amazing musicians!!!
That's when I our first heard fish saw them at Cal Expo Sacramento opening up for Santana and my first albums were giunta and ripped and then hoist
i consumed mushrooms for this show and it was absolutely perfect. When Ruby Waves hit I left my body and floated up under the roof of the pavilion. I saw a few other souls up there with me. Magical moments
Aw that's amazing😊
Unbelievable
Well done Kid
That's beautiful, Horsecock Express.
I was sober and felt like I was trippin:)

Better late than never!
John Green hey man, could you give me an update on your liking of phish? How’d you think about this years MSG run?
I'm so relieved to see that someone else is feeling like Phish flew under their radar. I've known they were good but I never thought about checking out their shows on youtube until April 2020... yes, 4/20.
That Taste on Slip Stitch And Pass is absurdly good.
Hello from a 1.0. I saw them when they were driving in two vans all over the country.
That night I experienced something on that lawn I can not describe. All I know is I can't wait for 2020 tour. Thank you Trey, Mike, page, fish, and ck5. Will never forget that weekend.
Hopefully, we get a Watkins Glen pay-back!
Riley Narayn absolutely!
That’s what this music is at it’s finest people....it’s Psychedelic Gospel. It will carry you to merge with the Divine and return you to your earthly role with a heart and head full of wisdom and compassion
Jews are gods chosen ppl. They are so awesome
Mick Wagner nobody in Phish is a practicing Jew.
Wish we could take a time machine and live this day over again. One of the best ever experiences I've ever had thank you
With VR and AI it’s not too far off…
Never miss a Sunday show! This was my 23rd Phish show! Love Alpine Valley!!! 🌲 Ruby Waves was EPIC!!!

Nice. Ruby Tuesday
29 years after my first show and I still love these guys..Best band in the land
Whoever gave this a thumbs down needs to read the book!

Man I hope you're right. I was in the pavilion and this whole show just kept taking everyone higher and higher. It was such an amazing experience.
I totally agree. They’ve transmuted into a new level of mastery and songwriting that carries the torch of Loves message from land to land.

First time and last time I was able to see Phish was on the first farewell tour at Alpine Valley. It was the greatest concert I’ve been to.

nah you both are wrong. there's no way god is male. religion is twisted truths to benefit certain men
Yeah i was there..20 years later ill be still talking about this show.as well as 2015 bird shit..
I cried, I laughed, I got mischievous with this jam. This is phenomenal.
This was a gem. I think it rained that day but I maybe wrong. Alpine is magical.
Sick!!!

Yeah, that was cool. I caught the soft part of the tour (second Bangor, both SPACs, and both Fenways) and I really wish I saw the Camden and Alpine shows instead. They were amazing at both Sunday night shows at those venues. However, I've been seeing Phish since 1994 and have seen around 150 shows (or many more), so I'm not complaining. :)
I think Holly Bowling has some more work to do.
650worm That’s a tough choice Holly has such a special place in my heart
Yeah ghost light
I think Paige is a great musician. I think Holly is a great musician. I think the need to compare is dumb. Just enjoy. WWPMS?
Holly lanes just remodeled two years ago... not too shabby now under the new management
@@JDD2ND what's your average over there?
dont ever take this down phish, iconic jam thank you so much love love loved it
Such a catchy, upbeat tune. And an evil, ominous jam. The dichotomy of Phish.
davey0110 evil phish is my favorite.
Hands down the best Phish show I have ever experienced (Watching that evil jam glowstick war at 22:00 from the pit was one of the coolest things I've ever seen). Thank you for giving so many of us such a personal and touching show. And don't forget kids, read the damn book!
yes man, i was there, lost my shit
Dang, I should have looked back at 22:00 haha I was pit in front of Trey! The arm swings during Contact blew my mind though. I felt I was seeing the band at a private club until I looked back.
I needed 3 nights at alpine so bad... thank you to the band, the crowd, and the staff for providing an over the moon experience.
I'm lookin' at the clouds and thinkin' "I don't remember any fog machines when I saw these guys a few years back!"
I love you all
Can't wait to see you again
Keep on!
edit: My favorite part of seeing Phish live is it's the only place I've ever been where I can just start dancing and not feel weird or self-conscious. At all.
Best kept secret of great music for many years! Keep it up boys!
Years ago I'd stick my surfboard in front of some speakers and play Voodoo Chile, Slight Return, so it could absorb the vibes
Now I stick my head in front of some speakers and absorb Ruby Waves

25:20 Page building up. The next couple minutes hearing Page match on through the rhythm into a singular own melodic tune was just a piece of the constructive masterpiece thatvl is being performed. So many incredible layers from each musician flowing into each other as a weave of harmonious notes.They're beasts.
They could have segued at the 27 min mark and phans would have still been blasted. But, NO! They completely annihilated Alpine Valley in the last 10 minutes. Every molecule in my body was vibrating. Unreal.
Scott Wolf those vibrations were undeniably present. So surreal
The more I watch this video (which I have done over and over for the past week), the more I agree with this comment.
Blue morning, walking down the street
Hear the rhythm from the soles of my feet
On the pavement, and I reach out my hands
And touch the building that's beside me
And I look into the air up above my head
Thin layer of clouds and the open sky
All the stars are handles on doors
If I could touch 'em with my fingers they would open up
And a sea of love, ruby waves would pour down on my head
An ocean of love would carry me up from this prison of lies
If I could touch the stars with my fingertips, the doors would open all around me
Could escape from this prison of lies and swim in the ocean up above my head
When I die I'll turn into a tiny ball of energy
And I'll go flipping and floating up into the sky
And bounce off the stars like a pinball machine, look around
All the lights on the machine are flashing
'Til they explode and the particles join up with...
A sea of love, ruby waves pourin' down on my head
An ocean of love would carry me up from this prison of lies
If I could touch the stars with my fingertips, the doors would open all around me
Could escape from this prison of lies
Could escape from this prison of lies
this is monumental, treys delay effect he uses around the 30 minute mark is insane
So sick!
So good..almost had a 'Run Like Hell' vibe to it
Does anyone know what delay pedal trey uses?
As good as it gets, this is why we Phish
A Masterpiece.
Revisiting this now. The whole jam is great, but the last 18 minutes of it is straight hose! Insane!
Happy Alpine Ruby Day to all those who celebrate. 3 years old! ♦️🌊

This is the most important Phish jam in at least 20 years
Ara Crittenden dude big cypress was less than 20 years ago. Your going to tell me this is better than sand>Quadrophonic
@@mrdankjank I said important, not better

Albany - 7v > ghost still has me for 3.0 jam.
This Ruby though needs at least a dozen more listens. I love it.
It's really awesome hearing this song weave its way into the main Phish fabric. My wife and I were lucky enough to get to GoTF and hear this whole catalog of Trey's personal narrative story come to life. I actually cried (nearly sobbed!) during "Friend"...lol. But to hear this song so naturally roll into 3.0's folio, is truly special....and just shows how cohesive and the band is. If a song's good. A song's good. Let it play.
So so loving the psychedelic spirituality in the lyrics of the newer material
Yeah boys! I knew you had it in you…
Fantastic jam and song!
Wow. Phish is on FIRE lately, like literally playing the best they have in years. This band never fails to give me literal chills. My hairs wont go down from the constant goosebumps. Love it love it love it
kyle ciarrocchi me too
woah funny seeing you here
Masterpiece
Can't wait to catch this one at the next show! It's amazing they remember all that!
Not sure a Ruby Waves will ever come to life like this one ever again. Who knows, I also said the same thing after the bomb factory tweezer and went gin...
9:58 one of the most beautiful passes ever made from Page to Trey. Feels way so good.
Looking up at the big yellow moon and the flicker of fireflies added to the magic..what a night to remember! Thank you Phish!!
Ch33f yeah, the moon was chilling watching the show. Soo amazing!
Page's face at the very beginning (0:14) says it all. He knows what's about to happen
Love to hear Trey play in the "licksomidian" style.
I Love Phish! What great memories! 94 - 24.... Still going strong! Go Umass!
THANK YOU PHISH FOR THIS AMAZING LIFE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Only 11:50 in. This is too much for words. WOW! Haha! Completely amazing. Best band I've ever imagined hearing. Thank you and the amazing family. It's still going as I'm typing. Gotta go. This is getting crazy.
Best jam of 2k19 easy
Best jam of the 2010s
Phish is my favorite band in the world . They influence me so much as a musician and give me so much happiness as a person.
What instruments are instrument do you play NDC and do you compose yes I Rastafari Tucson Arizona desert keep on keeping on Pisces
Totally drooled. Thank you Phish!!
Long Live The Phish From VT!!!!

this is really as good as everyone says.. just amazing on so many levels. thanks phish.
I'm so so glad that I was alive (am alive) the same time these 5 band members carved out magic for all of us to enjoy. Magic. Pure Blissfully, Magic! Major Fan from 1993 and had my first show just after I got my license at 17 at the GREAT WENT. 39 and still loving them! They just keep getting better with age. So incredibly lucky we are.
Hot buttah on your breakfast toast! This is why we listen & love this amazing one of a kind band! BLESSED 🤟🏼
Vinyl came today! So stoked! Let's GOOOOO! Easily one of the coolest things I've seen in my life!
thank you for sharing. Knew the potential Ruby Waves had when i first heard it. Hands down my favorite GOTF song. Blessed to have caught this. Insane night.
mike picking up instantly on the reggae i never get tired of listening too
I'm glad these guys crawled out of bed to play these tunes. They're not easy to look at, but the music is not bad.
I was there and I was drooling! Amazing jam and show!
One of the best jams ever on my birthday‼️ this will go down in history as peak 3.0‼️
this is better than a majority of those 90s jams that everyone talks about. it feels so much more free and inspired. change my mind
8/13/93
Can you really compare 90's Phish to the current day? Its a different animal.
What a show my bro and I are still drooling, Phish is on the top of thier game. I mean come on we had dancing, the fishman VAC, a meatstick, trampolines, mike plays the drill. Where else can you get all that entertainment in a live music event
As artists you figure playing the same old AC/DC bag or any of the 1.0 era songs may get old after a while
Amazing. The whole thing is exquisite. Trey's soft playing beginning at the 10.00 is so freaking beautiful!
Spectacular! This is as good as it gets right here. wow.
Grateful that these guys are still creating new music and having so much fun playing it for all of us. 36 years and going stronger than ever. Simply are the best to me.

Summer tour 2019 was fantastic and the band should be proud. I saw 1 show, Toronto, and wish I saw many more.
Andre Bouchard Toronto was amazing “take the highway to the great divide!”
saw them play this out in toronto. love this tune
Still processing, what a night, love mikes drill outro
Still processing too
Yes!! Sends chills down my spine. Shockingly good.
Definitely feeling them ruby waves
Wish I could download this to watch on my flight
TH-cam premium allows you to download. I know it costs money but ad free is nice too.
The jam aside, it’s crazy listening to Trey sing about his own afterlife in the immediate wake of his transition out of this world.
who needs coffee in the morning when there is this
I still need coffee...
I like my coffee with a little lysergic
30:50 no words can describe this jam
Amazing time and show! All bout Ruby Waves, Wowzers!!!
Incredibly beautiful.
Don't even listen to or know phish much but I was so mesmerized and entertained with this performance I didn't even realize I was already 30 minutes into it by the time I checked.
This was the best day of my music life. I can't see how any concert will ever top it.
This was such a great and fun show! We took our 2 and 4 year old and had a blast in the back of the lawn! It was a different kind of phun watching them dance the whole time! I honestly didn't even realize I witnessed this jam until after listening back!
i love 7:40 so much, between Trey's building guitar and those lights doing that 2-way blink, is just SO uplifting!!
Absolutely incredible piece of improvisation... unreal.
It really is. So locked in. Effortless connection. Incredible
Yes amazing incredible Jah love Jah Jerry Jah rastafari praises blessings respectfully Tucson Arizona Sonoran desert 🏜️
I want sapphire waves, and opal waves, and diamond waves, it could go on and on and on
Oh it will brother. Nice Eternity there’s room for anything you can imagine as
well as all you can’t
Me and my buddy were standing and watching at the front of the lawn Sunday night and he turns to me and says “This is the jam that never ends!”
EPIC. Finally got a chance to give this my attention...unreal...
