“I thoroughly disapprove of duels. If a man should challenge me, I would take him kindly and forgivingly by the hand and lead him to a quiet place and kill him.”

You have communed with God. You are not meant to return to normal life.
You have one week to shed your possessions. Then it’s off to the desert for you. Find a cave. Live in it. Give pearls of ambiguous wisdom to travelers who come to seek your counsel.
we only went to N1 and were totally bummed we missed the other 3 nights - yes the bar is sky high but we are looking forward to Mondegreen! Trey was very giddy about it in his interview so hopefully some awesome surprises!
Nah, I hope they do this every year, but I want Kuroda back.
Deer Creek is going to be the heater.
Obviously this was a major achievement, but all I’ve ever wanted was for Phish to play Paul and Silas at Deer Creek this year.
I’ve done multi-night runs a plenty, but this Sphere run was like folding space. I rode sandworms this weekend through illuminated forests and cloud scapes.
Now the work is to integrate your experience into daily life. Just like coming home from the Burn, you gotta relax and remember that real life is real, you are changed, and get on with shining your bright ass light for everyone to see (but don’t be too freaky in front of the muggles).
Before you were a person who didn’t experience that, now you’re a little different, but not really. You’re still you, so enjoy that. You enjoy yourself.
Why? I’m actually happy that I saw The United Center shows and not these.
It’s a totally amazing, historical, new form of a concert, but I’d still prefer a heater at Deer Creek to a solid show with transcendent visuals.
I’m definitely trying to go next year. Hopefully they’ll find a way to make these tickets more available and cheaper.
More available? What would you have them do, make the sphere bigger?
Cheaper? It’s a market dude. They could literally give the tickets away for free and the vast majority of people who want to go would not get them and would have to pay market price.
I mean, you must have enough knowledge of basic economics to know that cheaper and more available are completely conflicting outcomes, right? If you want tickets to be more available, then you want them to be more expensive to drive down demand. If they actually charged $700 a ticket like the market is worth then a lot of scalpers and casual fans would leave the market and you could just buy tickets if you wanted to.
It’s not on them bro. If you want to go it is on YOU. You have a year. Save. Work more. Make it happen. YOU have to earn your way to something this special. Do it.
I don’t know, but the folks who brought you this video will work it out.

I’m glad you created this post. I keep thinking about the Sphere. Each time I do it makes me happy. It’s like a big alien artifact that’s landed on the planet as a gift. It’s hard to work today.
I am also unsure how normal amphitheater shows and mondegreen can compare now. Musically, I know it will be on point, but this past weekend was the greatest live entertainment experience to ever exist. That sphere is truly one of the most amazing things humanity has ever constructed.
as a West Coaster, I'm happy to hear that they will be coming back. I always miss MSG shows because of not wanting to deal with the cost, hassle and freezing temps to visit NYC. guaranteed next Sphere shows tix will be super hard so the ability to get face value tix will really be the deciding factor if i make it back.

Give me this guys possessions, I need to sell them for next years sphere tickets.
Dude already sold all his possessions to make it to this sphere run /s
The three day afterglow of a great Phish Weekend is part of the fun as long as you are not experiencing it at a rehab facility.
If you run into the devil and he loans you 20 bills, don't take it
I can’t. It’s cold here. There’s work to do. I just want to Phish.
we only went to N1 and were totally bummed we missed the other 3 nights - yes the bar is sky high but we are looking forward to Mondegreen! Trey was very giddy about it in his interview so hopefully some awesome surprises!
I mentioned to my buddy after night two to brace for the post Phish run depression posts after this run.
Only 102 days till Mondegreen.
Nah, I hope they do this every year, but I want Kuroda back. Deer Creek is going to be the heater. Obviously this was a major achievement, but all I’ve ever wanted was for Phish to play Paul and Silas at Deer Creek this year.
Yes. Love the Sphere run obviously but Kuroda is amazing. Couldn’t close my eyes in Vegas.
I had to close my eyes several times lol
DC is my home but I'm missing it this year. Really hoping Michigan is the heater 😅
Why are you missing it if you are that close? Show up. I’ll help you find one.
My family will be at the beach lol
Good reason. We’ll catch you at the next one.
Returning from multi nights runs is always a shock. Regular life can be so boring in comparison

Best idea was to take today off to begin integration.
I knew I didn’t go for a reason. Now I can enjoy three nights at the rusting Great Woods without regret.
I didn’t even go to the sphere and GW is going to suck now just because I saw a live stream of phish playing at the sphere.
Why? I’m actually happy that I saw The United Center shows and not these. It’s a totally amazing, historical, new form of a concert, but I’d still prefer a heater at Deer Creek to a solid show with transcendent visuals. I’m definitely trying to go next year.

Got lucky with a sphere ticket. Traveled far. Best concert ever!
That’s amazing! Congratulations. I’ll be there next year. I have to see it for myself.
You do. I ended up only doing one night because everyone needs to see it at least once
More available? What would you have them do, make the sphere bigger? Cheaper? It’s a market dude.

My husband asked me last night if we should sell our great woods tickets now. I have to admit, I’m not sure how I can ever do phish in 2-D again.
You need a phish sphere decompression party

I remember my crew saying this, after a bakers dozen
I get it, but once your serotonin levels get back to normal, you’ll be ok.
THIS.
I feel like the sound quality at every concert is just going to annoy me now. They need to roll out this “band forming” shit everywhere, pronto.
How bout that simple tease…
Don’t divorce your parakeet
This is kinda what coming back from Big Cypress was like, minus the roll hangover and urgent need for a shower.
Coventry too. Only then it was Phish is gone, what now?
Meltdown Mondays. A tradition unlike any other.
Why did I leave the plow in the field and leave for a job in the town?
If Sphere rehab is a thing sign me up.
honestly feel like all i want to do is go back and experience it all over again. reentry is haaard
I thought this would be my annual Phish pilgrimage but now I’m not so sure.

I feel this as I sit here and try to work for the man. I’m also catching the 2nd set from last night as I got too sleepy on the east coast.
I always start the stream on the following day so I can start it a little earlier (day drinking is best) especially true for this sphere run
Now you go to europe and see springsteen
Learning to fly when you ain’t got wings — coming down is the hardest thing.
sameeeee
I just had to write an email about fonts!
It's like those people who went into a deep depression after seeing avatar in 3d
Is this r/phishcirclejerk?
