One of the more knowledgeable and long term reviewers of Phish - Mr. Miner (of the blog PhishThoughts) - in a long review titled simply Umm has heralded the first night at SPAC as nothing less then one of the finest shows of the modern era and anticipates this summer tour going down as one of legend.

"Phish has raised the bar again. On only the second night of Summer Tour, the band threw down a mind-boggling second labyrinth that blew anything they’ve played in this era straight out of the water. In fact, with a more macroscopic lens, the second set of SPAC was one of the finest musical statements that Phish has ever performed. Period. Playing with as much bravado and confidence as their mid-90s selves, while pulling sonic elements from all of their staple eras, the band wove the an incredibly fresh and unconventional musical odyssey that belongs in the loftiest of conversations."
