Man, I read all this stuff late at night with bulging eyesockets and just can't understand all the hate. I'll forever be gratefully stuck with memories of Phil & Friends fall '08 with Molitz and Jackie Green as my very first show. Playin opener(heard it on the way in), halfstep, rain and snow starts 2 minutes before it starts raining, masons, playin reprise set closer where phil's vocal mic shut off and the whole band got off time...phil just hit that deep note and they stopped and ran off…

It's a great show, but not according to the many commentors. To me it seems as though they follow this formula: "I like this, and therefore it's good." That's fine and dandy, especially when they detail why. (The same is so, "I don't like this, and therefore it's not good.") Garcia's voice cracks at times. He's hoarse. So what? On a good night he doesn't have a good voice. And Donna, if she hits a note that's not flat, congratulate her, good golly. That will go for every show.

OK, I've read the reviews from people who weren't there--take a step back, you guys. I've also read the reviews from those who think ""poor" sound quality should be reckoned against a perfomance's worth--a couple of steps back for you, I'm afraid. OK, for the rest of us, on the count of three: ARE YOU F*****' KIDDING ME????? Half-Step>Franklin's: OK, it happened a lot back then, I'll grant you. Not like this though, bub.
