Alaina and I were in line to buy tickets to The Road when the call came: would you be interested in seeing Phish at MSG tonight? We quickly postponed our apocalyptic film plans for one of my all-time favorite concert experiences. This was no ordinary ticket miracle– it was free, courtesy of a friend of a friend at Bank of America and their corporate luxury box, including food and drinks and an amazing view perched near the ceiling. Tempted though I was to call out our hosts on their shameful industry-leading financial support of CO2 coal-burning operations, I opted instead to show my gratitude by dancing like a madman for the duration. A wise choice indeed! Phish ripped though three hours of music as well as I have ever seen them do. I have probably spent over 100 hours at Phish concerts but this experience was truly unique. I am grateful to the random sequence of events that led me unexpectedly to this show.
I like photos, but I really love many photos shot at tiny intervals synchronized with audio then reviewed progressively.
