Miner’s Picks – Fall ’09
As we turn the page from Fall Tour and begin to look towards Miami, I have compiled the latest installment in the Miner’s Picks series – “Fall ’09.” This time around, you’ll find some repeats throughout the eight-hour highlight reel due to Phish’s proclivity for using similar vehicles throughout the run. The band chose their weapons for this tour and slayed them each time out, playing some of the most engaging jams from similar launchpads. Providing a legitimate summary of the past tour, “Miner’s Picks: Fall ’09” arrives just in time for the holidays to spice up any dinner or cocktail party. Enjoy the psychedelia with your holiday cheer, and get ready for a Miami New Year!

I’m Ron Burgundy?
Wow…cuban necktie….shit Miner thats like some crazy war shit. I don’t want to even think of what that would be like on L. Had my dose of mortality on the drive back from the Chicago show, but I was at least sober….sheesh.
Baxter, you know I don’t speak Spanish.
big big big fan of Joy. Brought me to tears at the end of RR2 – Drowned -> Crosseyed and Painless
AW- agreed the Creek version of Let Me Lie is my favorite and that the placement was perfect- coming off the HUGE ASIHTOS>Drowned>Twist- and before the madness of the second half of that set.
Milk was probably a bad idea.
Huge ASHITOS
come on boys!
If all you crazies are right and they read this blog
then read fucking this.
drop a huge sick, nasty ASHITOS down by the ocean
Bark twice if you’re in Milwalkee…
She has not. She is a real nervous driver and the absolute worst passenger in a car. I always let her drive as her reaction to my driving pisses me off and distracts me.
Since I can’t go, I’m hoping that they play TTE every night in Miami and then a TTE Reprise for the encore on the 31st/1st. Sorry guys, but it would make me feel much better about not being there! lol
Re: Miami ’03- after listen to most of it last 48 hours. 12.28 set II and 12.29 Set II are my favorite and will remain in the rotation for some time to come. Jibboo> suzy> theme is my favorite segment of the run.
this Tweezer from the 28th ’03 is freaking amazing!
TTEPRISE
I had to relisten to the MSG “First Tube”. The crowd is part of the band at that point. Even on tape, I swear it feels like the climax of the whole tour. Just amazing.
“I always let her drive as her reaction to my driving pisses me off and distracts me.”
^ I do the same to minimize arguments 🙂
agreed with Jibboo > Suzy > Theme….
but Stash is the single best thing from miami 03
Whoa Compadre! If you wanna throw down in fistacuffs, fine. I’ve got Jack Johnson and Tom O’Leary here waiting for ya!
I heart 12/4 First Tube
two thousand zero zero party over
Oops out of time
So tonight I’m gonna party like it’s 1999!!!!!!!!
Which means a performance of TTE each night
wish I was there for 12/4 first tube It it what I chase. It is what I live for. The energy there feels like it could have physically lifted you off your feet.
I’d been driving through the middle of the Adirondacks during a crazy snowstorm on my way to Syracuse with my girl a few years back. At one point she was annoying me so bad with her passenger seat driving that I pulled over and told her to drive. She proceeded to drive about 500 feet up the road and then right off the road. I took back over the pilots seat and never heard another peep.
Jay,
There was some spontaneous levitation. Nobody is going to tell me otherwise!
YEM: MSG>Cincy
Neemor, re: Secret Smile
My bad. I thought it was an obvious joke, and a comment on 2003 for me. Great show. High points galore. Let’s bring the house down with……Secret Smile???
most perfect ballad all year, for me, was billy breathes @ red rocks
***
just listened to msg’s light again. i think its my fav jam all tour, including alb’s 7 below>ghost. it feels more creatively juicy fresh to my ears. and i do love 7 below>ghost too, but thats more like a crazy road trip thru peaks & valleys not wholly unfamilar to me. ill take more of both please!
Let’s get to this Miami 28th 1st set opener Party Time
so we can get this thing going already
I’m at work
but no one is working
everyone just chilling
S&P’s up 1.31% though
maybe get a little santa claus rally to close the year and help pay for Miami
