Phish returned to Alpine Valley Music Theater for their third and the final night last night. The Sunday show also marked their summer 2019 tour finale.
While night one and two were big on the heavy hitters, Phish delivered bust out after bust out on night three. For those chasing some deep cuts on their list, this show was sure to check at least one off your list.
The P-fish crammed 15 tunes into the first set including these bust-outs: The Landlady (first since July 10, 2016, or 122 shows), Olivia’s Pool (November 17, 1997, or 692 shows), The Man Who Stepped Into Yesterday and Avenu Malkenu (August 21, 2015, or 147 shows), Strange Design (July 8, 2016, or 124 shows). Wow.
While set one was big on the bust-outs, Phish served up jams and more bust-outs in set two. The jam of the night was the “Mercury > Ruby Waves” that kicked off the second set that extended past 50 minutes. Those in attendance were treated to what many consider the while whale of Phish shows—”Icculus.” The boys ended the set with “You Enjoy Myself > Catapult > Contact > You Enjoy Myself” before capping off the tour with a “More > Tweezer Reprise” encore.
