Outside of Halloween or new years is 7/16 the greatest day in #phishtory ?
I’m sure 12/29 and 12/30 are up there. But is there another day with this many bangors? (Sic)
@PHART I've discussed this a lot with friends over the years. By sheer number 7.15 and 7.25 have more shows than any non holiday date and NYE Runs in general run thick of course. July is probably the best overall month for phish because of the number of shows and thus number of high quality shows. Good case can be made for 7.16 for sure. Not sure I'd say best but it's definitely worthy of the conversation
My quick thoughts on each?
@PHART
92 has bar room looseness
93 has debuts galore and a personal favorite hood
94 is sugarbush awesomeness
98 gorge-ing fun
99 overshadowed by the prior night but still great
13 segue-filled 2nd
14 is... not so great frankly
17 big carini>20yl and thread debut
22 all about that disease
23 big gin, bigger sand
There's not as many legendary shows as some dates have but aside from the pine knob clunker not much for low points either
@PHART @phishjustjams I even got ahead of myself and talked up the 07.16.93 Hood not too long ago
I know they aren't the "best" but something about 93 Hoods speaks to me in big ways. And my personal favorite from the year (07.16.93) doesn't even make the jamcharts ::shrug:: #phish https://relisten.net/phish/1993/07/16/harry-hood?source=163018
