Phish - August 5th, 2023

This Trey-led version has a cool jam that breaks free of the song around 4:15. While not the longest "MM" ever played, it's full of energy and packs a major punch before > "Divided Sky."

Truly monstrous first set version marked by tone shifting ferocity and relentless drive that samples from a range of effects, builds through several movements and eventually unleashes an ungodly peak that subsequently deconstructs before segueing to "NICU".

Opening composed section and early part of the jam segment before Mike begins "Guy Forget."

Mike begins "Guy Forget" out of pure improv (so-called "type II" jamming) and Trey catches on in seconds, and after only a few measures Fish starts singing "Guy Forget," and Trey and then Fish rap/speak the only lyric of "Guy Forget" over upbeat improv.

"Type II" improv continues after the "Guy Forget" silliness ends, sounding absolutely nothing like "Tweezer" for several minutes (and then only Fish temporarily returns to "Tweezer's" drum line for a few measures). Collective "full-band" improv at its finest, with each band member complementing each other so well the improv at times sounds like it could have been composed, even as it soars through several key modulations and time signatures. Yet another masterful version, providing further evidence that "Tweezer" is Phish's most consistently wondrous jam-vehicle since 2009.

After a delicate, nearly ambient start, the jam takes on a foreboding tone and builds anticipation as it gradually intensifies until bursting into the traditional climax just after 13:00 to memorably close out the seven-night run at the Garden.
