...and by "show" I mean second set, as it's necessary to all but ignore first sets these days when evaluating shows....

Reviewers/Phans lose credibility when I see statements like this. I just don't get it. At the end of the day it seems like these guys go to shows and only enjoy about 15 minutes of it. For me I am looking at the entire experience and that's why I go. I love the music, the songs, love first sets and am not simply waiting for type II jamming to be able to achieve a great show. Of course I enjoy that too, but, there is so much else to enjoy outside of type II jamming. It seems a shame to me that Phans like the author completely dismiss first sets and then authoritatively announce it as if that should be the norm for all Phish fans. My guess is that the author is actually in the minority. Reviews that concentrate only on the Type II moments, setting aside everything else, bore me.
