Tweezer

I'm listening to a Phish bootleg from Denver 11.17.97. The boys opened up with Tweezer that night and it was a smoking version. That was a rare night when Phish performed Tweezer and did not play Tweezer Reprise at some point later in the show. I know that The Joker loved that entire show. It's part of the Year of the Funk when Phish threw down some of their heaviest space-funk. Ah, I'dlove to go back into time and tour with Phish again in 1997 and 1998... just before the scene got too out of control and the boys got burnt out.
Anyway, the first five minutes it's all about Mike's bass. Seven minutes into Tweezer, they start smoking it up. At fifteen minutes in the jam, the groove takes off into some of that freaky-ass stop and start jamming while Trey hits homeruns with some heavy funk rifts. Man, I love writing when this show is on in the background.
