Last year, Phish played Jones Beach in early July and busted out “Skin It Back” for the first time since 1988. What do they have in store for the Long Island crowd this year? Weather is once again playing a factor as a cold, steady rain (taboot!) is falling on those already inside. Phish, Jones Beach and drizzle seem to have a date with destiny each time the band plays there. Follow along as we’ll provide all the #CouchTour details as they happen. Lights!

@jadedvet love that Pet Sounds is playing on the PA at Jones Beach. They don’t know just how lucky they have it.

Awesome transition from Tweezer jam into Cities. Reminded me a bit of the -> Cities from Prague '98.

Some very smooth segues this set. Zero abruptness.
