Brought my wife to her first phish show when we first started dating. Needless to say that was her last show too. She doesn't mind when the circus comes to town though so that's cool.
ive probably been to literally thousands of show of all different types and sizes. For me, there is just some crazy electricity that flows. A feeling that can only truly be felt in that environment. Chills, a tear to the eye as I quietly reminisce about life all in an that instant while hanging on a note like fingers gripping on a cliff. An instant of pure happiness and to look around and see and feel that happiness radiating from everything around you. Magical. I'm a bit antisocial but I love a good show.
