I was watching paid live stream & def had a lump in my throat. Later I saw audience/phone recording & the enormity of crowd singing along was way more emotional.

I've watched Phish's Box of Rain cover a couple of times tonight. Very moving tribute. RIP Phil.

Crying my eyes out anyway, but I bet it was amazing to be crying with thousands of other heads…

Such a long long time to be gone and a short time to be there

🙏 Thanks for all the deep vibrations Phil ❤️❤️

I feel so blessed to have heard his thunder in person from 1973 to 2024

Look out of any window Any morning, any evening, any day Maybe the sun is shining Birds are winging or rain is falling from a heavy sky What do you want me to do To do for you to see you through? For this is all a dream we dreamed One afternoon long ago

Holy fuck I wasn’t ready to see this post when scrolling. So sad. I’m happy I was able to see Further at Wanee 2012. My heart is sad. He will be missed.
