I did not get sucked back into the cult (well, maybe just a little). Forgot how happy everyone is at a Phish show (yes, I realize most are under some sort of influence, but they were happy nonetheless).
My cousin gave me and my friend VIP deck tix, so we stayed under cover there instead of heading out on the lawn. Was an interesting place to see a show. Was like I was watching people watch the show while watching the show. ha.
Dude got a little grabby with me at the end, but my friend ran interference and it was the end of the show. Didn't let that ruin the evening though. Still, I don't understand that. I'm just handing with my girlfriend. Do not need you to wrap your hand around my waist and touch my ass. Ugh.
On the way to meet up with my friend's husband (who gave us a ride home), we walked through an entire courtyard of people with balloons. That has always made me so sad. It was weird.
Overall though, a really good show with some of my old favorites (Chalkdust Torture, Harry Hood, Piper, Big Fat Furry Creatures From Mars, Bathtub Gin, Prince Caspian). Funny too that they played 2001 when that was the last year I saw them. Glad I went, and also glad I'm not going to Watkins Glen...
