leaked video of the phish.net volunteers discussing the 12-29 set list

00:00 - 00:03 Fall tour was great, but as usual

00:04 - 00:05 it all led up to NYE at MSG

00:05 - 00:07 in NYC, the center of the universe

00:08 - 00:12 12-28 is a throwaway. No one is relistening.

00:12 - 00:15 But what went down on 12-29 is nuts.

00:17 - 00:19 This is that crazy set one closer?

00:19 - 00:21 I've heard it. Totally wild.

00:24 - 00:26 Charlie, some people think

00:27 - 00:28 that Party Time should be on the set list

00:31 - 00:33 By people, we mean, like, everybody.

00:34 - 00:36 Including Tom Marshall. And the band's Twitter.

00:53 - 00:58 If you're a 3.0 noob, gtfo.

01:13 - 01:15 If Fishman took a shit with cymbals

01:15 - 01:17 is that Party Time? Fuck no!

01:18 - 01:23 Are there rules?

01:25 - 01:28 Or is this set list anarchy?

01:29 - 01:31 They didn't play the drum part ffs!!

01:31 - 01:34 I will not budge on this! Never!

01:34 - 01:37 It's not a performance, just a quote!

01:37 - 01:40 Listen to the other versions and get back to me!

01:40 - 01:42 They sang it several times, come on, dude.

01:42 - 01:46 Sang the words! Just the words!

01:46 - 01:48 Let's just give the public what they want

01:48 - 01:52 So now set lists are drafted by mob rule?

01:53 - 01:54 I've been at this too long

01:56 - 01:57 I can't have 3.0 noobs steering this ship

01:57 - 02:00 next thing you know, there are 25 DEG teases per show

02:00 - 02:03 when it's usually just

02:04 - 02:08 a Trey trill that barely sounds like DEG

02:08 - 02:13 and I will not tolerate that

02:14 - 02:16 it’s objectively true that the Phish song “Party Time” was not performed on 12-29

02:17 - 02:21 It doesn’t matter what you or I believe.

02:27 - 02:29 I can't even bask in the joy of the 12-30 Bliss because of this shit

02:30 - 02:34 Or the Glide II.

02:34 - 02:36 I've been waiting for that since 1995

02:41 - 02:42 The composed sections of Party Time weren’t performed

02:43 - 02:47 except arguably one or two chords by Page shortly before the end of the jam.

02:48 - 02:53 The SONG was not performed/played

02:54 - 02:56 the formal setlist will be misleading to some no matter what we do

02:56 - 02:59 The music of the song was literally not performed, so there’s that

03:00 - 03:02 But because its ONLY lyric (100%) was repeated for many measures over a jam, there’s that.

03:04 - 03:07 More ladies at the show today than normal, huh?

03:14 - 03:16 I'll tell you what

03:19 - 03:23 Consensus seems to be to note “Party Time” in the setlist formally

03:25 - 03:26 even if its music technically wasn’t performed

03:31 - 03:33 This is a sad day for phish.net

03:40 - 03:46 And me personally

03:46 - 03:49 I've been at this since 1989
