PHISH, SATURDAY 02/24/2024
MOON PALACE
Cancun, Quintana Roo, Mexico

SET 1:

Simple: Upbeat and major mode – fun jam to start the show and an awesome segue into Sanity although it takes Page a bit to catch up ->

Sanity: Holy Toledo, amazing placement and segue! Awesome!!!

Chalk Dust Torture Reprise: Fun, fun, fun.

Wolfman's Brother: Funky at first and then eventually has that low key major mode celebratory vibe.

Mercy: This song is terrible.

Rift: Standard.

Bathtub Gin: This one has is quite the group effort. This jam never tries to do too much – nice and patient – another Mexican mindbender. Also love that they finish this one properly before segueing into Cavern. Would recommend. ->

Cavern: Standard.

SET 2:

The Howling: Ugh. >

No Men In No Man's Land: Standard. >

Ruby Waves: Noisy, evil, and dark following the theme of this run. Eventually has that low key major mode celebratory vibe. Would recommend. ->

Golden Age: Fun, bouncy vibe to it with some start stop elements to keep you on your toes. ->

Ruby Waves: Nice bookend. >

Ether Edge: Standard.

Twist: Standard.

A Life Beyond The Dream: Standard.

Possum: Standard.

ENCORE:

More: Yuck. >

Also Sprach Zarathustra: Only the third time seen in the E slot, each of these were 3.0 versions – here are the other two: 7/16/2014, 8/5/2018. Strong version! Love the groove that they go with in the 6 to 9 minute range. Would recommend this version. >

Slave to the Traffic Light: Standard.

Summary: Very solid show. This show is more workmanlike in nature than the previous two nights but has plenty of merit. I would rate this as a 4/5.

Replay Value: Bathtub Gin, Ruby Waves, Also Sprach Zarathustra

Chalk Dust Torture Reprise was performed for the first time since December 28, 2019 (142 shows). Mike teased Sundown in Bathtub Gin.
