Review of Phish

Phish (2010)
10/10
As good as a Phish show gets without being there

Warning: Spoilers
Excellent sound quality and picture quality makes seeing Phish 3D in the theater about as close as it gets to seeing Phish live. The movie chronicles Phish's "Festival 8" concert in Indio, CA in late 2009. If unfamiliar with the band Phish, this movie offers a raw, intimate sample of intense, live concert footage of the band playing in peak form. The 3D footage adds a novelty to the experience. While die-hard Phish fans may find the set list lacking in rare numbers, the songs that are played are of excellent musicianship. Trey Anastasio aficionados will find the close up, 3D-HD view of the guitar fretboard very compelling during songs such as Stealing Time from the Faulty Plan, Maze, and Tweezer. The movie is a non-stop amalgamation of the entire festival, and features the following setlist:

@ = Acoustic

AC/DC Bag, Stealing Time From The Faulty Plan, Undermind, Tweezer, Maze, Mike's, Back On The Train@, Strange Design@, The Curtain With@, Sleep Again@, Train Song@, Wilson@, Loving Cup, Happy, Shine A Light, Soul Survivor, Suzy Greenberg, Tweezer Reprise.
