As a jazz pianist I'm always so impressed with Page's percussive comping under Trey's solos. He's so interactive! I wish they'd zoom in on his keyboards more in this take! Jazz musicians could learn a thing or two from this group's chemistry
i was tripping lastnight and thats ALL i could think of. these guys do so many pieces of music (not just songs) that the highest level of musical education would very much appreciate and want to study. this isnt just a drug band. these 4 guys are music genius’ and i dont use that phrase lightly
My devotion is split down the middle. Saw my first Dead show in 87 at MSG. Was blessed to be a part of their late career renaissance, which in my opinion started to fade in 92. The baton for life changing live shows was handed off in late ’91 when I saw my 1st PH at the Capitol in Port Chester, NY. It’s the preverbal apples and oranges.Jerry was more prone to tickle my heartstrings where Trey melted my face. Thank god Trey and co have adopted a healthy lifestyle. They will be @ for a long time.
@@lokispeicher8103To each their own of course, but I don't understand why people loathed Vince so badly. I absolutely love the sounds and grooves he brought to the table. Not the same as with Brent, but just more different interesting sounds and feelings. Same as with all their keys players. I'm just infatuated with the different kinds of Dead they helped produce.
@@grecorobert97 I appreciate your positivity brother! Excellent way to look at things. Did you ever wonder why Vince was never included in any of the post-Jerry incarnations? Chimenti and Barraco (sp?) aren't complaining about said omission I reckon....Samba In the Rain? Way To Go Home? nope...Ok in light of your positive spin I will admit that I did rather enjoy his take on Tomorrow Never Knows...I was so on "team Brent" that there's a good chance that I would have rejected anyone trying to fill his seat now that I think about it...One Love
One correction: this is the BEST Moma. Also probably one of the greatest phish jams of all time. There is a sense of perfect unity among the band in this song. It's... it's... it's perfect.
@@TubeFlop also nothing was perfect from this year . Some good a lot of bad but it is what makes them today . The best fucking rock band on the planet of our generation .
This version never fails to take my breath away. I always felt that, given the intensity and raw power of Trey's solo on this Moma, it's like through his playing you are truly hearing a man screaming in pain over the decision he has just made. That's just my interpretation.
Everyone is playing so good here. This was my first Phish show I ever fell in love with. Bought the DVD with my weed money when I was like 14 and never looked back. Really love this whole show.. especially the Curtain With. Made me want to take up drumming, and I did.
Thats what makes phish one of the greatest bands of all time, the fact that they arnt making music for the money they make it for the pure artistic joy it brings them and in turn us how many other bamds openly let their fans record and distribute or trade their music like jerry said once its been played it belongs to the people.i remember way back when napster was big and alot o bands (metallica) comes to mind first were bitching and crying about how it was taking food outa their mouths lol i never reallh cared for them but after that crybaby shit just shows how much some people really care bout nothing other then the paychek
I feel bad for you man you need to look up Shawn Lane and Jonas Hellborg, Snarky Puppy, Robert Glasper and a hell of alot more music before you call this the best piece of music youve ever heard
it can be argued that this is the most psychedelic music ever created. hard to enter this stuff into a dick measuring contest with those fusion chopsters because the context of this music is much different.
Yo don't get it man, I am saying this stuff can't be compared to the other music you mentioned because of difference in context. This music is built for psychedelic spaceship transportation, the other stuff is very high level jazz fusion stuff that is incredible too. It's all awesome in its own way and I really don't think you can compare these worlds.
I never heard of them before a few months ago but snarky puppy played a show in indy and while it was deff cool and i dug it its nowhere near a live phish show, i agree with dude they are on a whole other level than most other bands
So I heard a little tab on a dead station and was like ohhhh shiiiiiit and thought I might dig round a bit. A really good buddy said 97 would be a good place for me to start.....I found this round 9 months ago and I keep coming back over and over. I now have most of the 90s in my library, however the music never stops.
Was at this show and just remember screaming my head off at the 9 minute mark. So freaking powerful and intense! Can't believe how fortunate I am to be here while this is going on. Fucking WIN!
This is my favorite Moma for sure. Just crystal clear, precise, and jams way into outer space. Don't care if it's 2.0 and Trey's guitar sounds thinner than ever. The Free and Possum are absolute fire as well in this show.
Trey def played off his TAB 2000/2001/2002 jazzy influenced band and brought that tone to 2.0. I myself love the Trey tone from later 1.0 but prefer Gordon's sound in 2.0. I remember hearing that he canned the ross compressors which was what boosted his tone to cut through the mix. I'm still very found of 2.0 even though it was very hit or miss. If it hit, it slapped, if it was a miss it was horrible.
I agree with most this may be the BEST Moma ever! I actually have this in my top 10 all time live performances, Trey was extremely high but damn it’s epic!
jesus christ this is the best modern day performing act. and they are so in sync now more than ever, these guys fuckin tear it up. they have more creativity than any of you haters; they have a monstrous following despite having no radio hits, sell out Madison Square every new years, and yea Trey is a badass guitarist, probably one the best of his generation. if you don't like them, fine but you can't deny the talent that they each possess.
Yeah, with the trainwreck (treynwreck?) that was vegas shortly before this and trainwreck that was coventry shortly after this, its amazing to me how good this is.
He probably wasn't even getting very high at that point, he is a walking scarecrow, at some point the effect of drug diminishes. I think he gets in zone regardless of the drug consumed. I saw phish at Dicks and they can f-ing rip it with no buzz on whatsoever. I play myself, quit using everything several years ago, and playing effect is much more powerful with no inhibition imho. Don't need oxy to get there.
@Juantarde I've been battling that demon for the better part of 12 years..sometimes successfully sometimes not..but music is powerful medicine for sure
As a musician, ex heroin addict, and phish fan, I will say that there’s a sweet spot with music and opiates and while it doesn’t last long and is ultimately destructive more often than not, it exists and is a wonderful place to be for however long it lasts.
through continuous repetition of these little funky jamming bits attached together ,each time they play it you can wind up with a completely different version .They eventually just keep getting better and better at these bits .This is tight !
i think thats why this Moma is so incredible. Moma is a naturally pretty repetitive song even when it was still Black Eyed Katy. but with this version, the first time listener might expect your everyday average moma dance but this completely blows it out of the water exactly how you said, with that funky dirty 2.0 energy building!!! I❤️🐟
I am an ole ded hd and my friends told me to come hear phish, now I know why. this is funky time love the funky tune. Yeah excited now,hope they funk it up for washingtonians. Still will hold the dead as number 1 in my heart for eva and eva
I’m convinced that the crowd isn’t weak. They’re we’re all just shredded by Trey and are in a state of disarray. That and prolly a little combination of hetti party supplies and the shred.
This 2 night Brooklyn span runs from thrilling and fresh, to just damn depressing. The following night brought out Hov for Big PImpin and 99 Problems... both practically undigestable but historic none the less. The SPAC run around the same time was UNBELIEVABLE, easily the best shows of the pre-break up tour in 04
When Trey goes off in the later jam, even Fishman howls in astonishment! lol When you can get your 30 year friend and bandmate off, you are a sick fucking guitarist!
It’s so cool to see them dig the fuck into the music despite everything going on. In a lot of footage from this time period, the band looks dejected while Trey wastes away in front of them. Here the darkness comes through but the band is enjoying the moment.
Even in the darkest of days there is light...
Super duper great music!🎶🎵🎶
Yes there is light that comes from your butt. It’s called a brown hole.
Dude is higher than a giraffe clam just shredding wheat. This is the best video on the internet.
As a jazz pianist I'm always so impressed with Page's percussive comping under Trey's solos. He's so interactive! I wish they'd zoom in on his keyboards more in this take! Jazz musicians could learn a thing or two from this group's chemistry

@@tw8454 Well put my friend. Same exact thing goes for the Dead, and countless other bands, jam or otherwise.
I like to think they wouldve collaborated with Miles Davis if he'd made it a few more years.
Jesus died for this jam.
Omg
Amen, fwiend!
A-Wookie, A-Camera, AMEN

Not everything has to be a list of best to worst. It's a great jam and let's just leave it at that
@@TubeFlop also nothing was perfect from this year . Some good a lot of bad but it is what makes them today . The best fucking rock band on the planet of our generation .
By the way not perfect phish is still better than almost everything else so there is that too ;)
Definitely best moma. I listen to it everyday this one 🎉
I would argue that the Ventura version is superior to this in funkiness and cohesiveness
This version never fails to take my breath away. I always felt that, given the intensity and raw power of Trey's solo on this Moma, it's like through his playing you are truly hearing a man screaming in pain over the decision he has just made. That's just my interpretation.
I've been to 68 shows and this is one of sickest moma dance versions I've heard or maybe that I remember lol
Jeffrey Witt totally agree
Jeffrey Witt on the top of my list esp the last few minutes of space
the 3-1-2003 one is really, really good.
This is funnier on easter
One of my favorite performances of MOMA dance. The whole band is just so on point.
Everyone is playing so good here. This was my first Phish show I ever fell in love with. Bought the DVD with my weed money when I was like 14 and never looked back. Really love this whole show.. especially the Curtain With. Made me want to take up drumming, and I did.
The last 5 minutes of this is out of control good. They're all at their absolute best.
2003 was a special time good and bad. 2.0 doesnt get enough credit sometimes
One of the most creative bands in music... Thank God some people are still enjoying the art instead of chasing hit singles...
Thats what makes phish one of the greatest bands of all time, the fact that they arnt making music for the money they make it for the pure artistic joy it brings them and in turn us how many other bamds openly let their fans record and distribute or trade their music like jerry said once its been played it belongs to the people.i remember way back when napster was big and alot o bands (metallica) comes to mind first were bitching and crying about how it was taking food outa their mouths lol i never reallh cared for them but after that crybaby shit just shows how much some people really care bout nothing other then the paychek
awesomejohnnet nahh dude look up some jazz fusion Phish gets reallll old realllll fast jazz is far more creative and artistic in my opinion.
nothing wrong with making money off art. as long as it's that: art
john smith Except for that one time Trey explained how their ultimate goal was to make money doing what they loved to do.
@@sdmumbo134 dumbest comment award
Favorite Moma Dance. Trey was killing it that night.
They were deep in the pocket with this jam
one of the first phish jams I heard. still believe it was this jam that turned me into a phan.
Me too. I was like phish is okay, then I heard this and I was never the same.
Everything's right did it for me.
One of the best versions of this song performed during a very dark period for the band. Remarkable.
GOAT Moma, not even close. Also some of Trey's just absolute finest hendrix level expressive cathartic rips. MONEY.
Here for the 100x time :)
probably one of the best pieces of music ive ever heard
I feel bad for you man you need to look up Shawn Lane and Jonas Hellborg, Snarky Puppy, Robert Glasper and a hell of alot more music before you call this the best piece of music youve ever heard
it can be argued that this is the most psychedelic music ever created. hard to enter this stuff into a dick measuring contest with those fusion chopsters because the context of this music is much different.
LOL chopsters this music cant compare to the soul those guys have this moma is dope but doesnt compare to that amazing music i mentioned
Yo don't get it man, I am saying this stuff can't be compared to the other music you mentioned because of difference in context. This music is built for psychedelic spaceship transportation, the other stuff is very high level jazz fusion stuff that is incredible too.

Oxy Trey killing it
Jake Jaffe that's what I was thinking!
absolutely
@10:12 feeling the ox take hold
Not a phan of "oxy" Trey comments. Neither would he be
Im so glad trey is healthy now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Amen dude Amenmm!!!!!
Yes! He threw down some nasty jams...but so thankful hrs healthy!
This is mind blowing.
🙌🙌🙌

Same. Except you won’t be walking. Either dancing or spinning.
jesus christ this is the best modern day performing act. and they are so in sync now more than ever, these guys fuckin tear it up. they have more creativity than any of you haters; they have a monstrous following despite having no radio hits, sell out Madison Square every new years, and yea Trey is a badass guitarist, probably one the best of his generation. if you don't like them, fine but you can't deny the talent that they each possess.
Best mona dance ever. Trey looks about 4 hours late for his fix but sounds great. I love listening to fish sing too.
It makes me sad to see him looking so lost...
@@choochoocharlie why would you be sad ? 2003-2004 is one of their best periods music wise. So many incredible jams in those two years
This is an excellent Moma...Phish late 90's early mid 2000's so so good. The Moment Ends only when you think your're too old...but it doesnt
I still come back to this almost weekly :)
2019, still my favorite phish video out !!!
Damn, you can't say that oxy Trey didn't get in the zone sometimes
Yeah, with the trainwreck (treynwreck?) that was vegas shortly before this and trainwreck that was coventry shortly after this, its amazing to me how good this is.
He probably wasn't even getting very high at that point, he is a walking scarecrow, at some point the effect of drug diminishes. I think he gets in zone regardless of the drug consumed. I saw phish at Dicks and they can f-ing rip it with no buzz on whatsoever.
I play myself, quit using everything several years ago, and playing effect is much more powerful with no inhibition imho.
Don't need oxy to get there.
ProtozoaSound I’m grateful that trey is healthy and sober every day. People don’t realize how close he was to dying.
@Juantarde I've been battling that demon for the better part of 12 years..sometimes successfully sometimes not..but music is powerful medicine for sure
LumpyheadCarini I could not agree more
Finally!! I cannot believe that this moma dance was not posted on CZcams for so long.
As a musician, ex heroin addict, and phish fan, I will say that there’s a sweet spot with music and opiates and while it doesn’t last long and is ultimately destructive more often than not, it exists and is a wonderful place to be for however long it lasts.
So true man
true brotha. dont want to be that guy nodding out on the floor though
This is the most real and accurate take on anything. Ever. Hope you're doing well man
I like phish with mushrooms. I like herion with ice cream.
3.0 def the most dangerous and interesting era!
The best MOMA EVER really
mos def agreed #phamily
I stand by this comment. Hope this moment never ends.
I keep coming back to this jam...year after year....so funking funky. Step into the Womb yall!
Can't wait to see you guys all 3 nights at Alpine Valley in August! First phish show ever!!!!
How was it? Right in my backyard
peace and love coming from Tuscon Arizona! :)
Did they all go to Great Clips?
Jonah Bowron I am dead. Fucking hysterical.
@@twodays90 I laughed for a solid minute
Ahahaha
Mike says no
I almost spit out my drink every time I read this. You are gonna get me one of these times.
I’ve watched this so many times
best part of this concert, man did they not play that divided sky to well
Hell ya this song is amazing
super mad chill jam
Kings of bringin' it!❤
Crushing it
through continuous repetition of these little funky jamming bits attached together ,each time they play it you can wind up with a completely different version .They eventually just keep getting better and better at these bits .This is tight !

Trey leads us to the mountain top 6:52
Well said!
Word! Powerful.
That tone makes me horny
I am an ole ded hd and my friends told me to come hear phish, now I know why. this is funky time love the funky tune. Yeah excited now,hope they funk it up for washingtonians. Still will hold the dead as number 1 in my heart for eva and eva
9:35 to the end is my favorite. classic 2.0 greatness
One of best MoMA's ever
this shit is so good lmao. you can see it on their faces. 10/10 best video to watch for the first time if your just now getting your toes in the water
Lol still so fire holy shat!!
he makes it look so easy
at @10:45 when the organ becomes a space ship descending on coney island, that's incredible
Jon's time suspensions in this jam ( 7:35 - 9:14 8:19 hold on tight) ......... so wonderfully warped flow never goes away
A+
DAVINOENTERPRISES pip l we fi.
The songs are just bits ,like little funky jamming bits they attach together and make a song with !
I love theses bits !
Man, i love that main guitar riff in here... just so fuckin good.
One person disliked this, some people can't stand seeing a zero because it reminds them too much of themselves.
One of my favs
Easily most played cd in my car
Me too,brother..lol
sick!!
I’m convinced that the crowd isn’t weak. They’re we’re all just shredded by Trey and are in a state of disarray. That and prolly a little combination of hetti party supplies and the shred.
That and it was absolutely down pouring like crazy before the show and at times during it. Rained so hard the dyes in my clothes and hat bled.
Got dayum
First time I heard fishman sing... beautiful
This 2 night Brooklyn span runs from thrilling and fresh, to just damn depressing. The following night brought out Hov for Big PImpin and 99 Problems... both practically undigestable but historic none the less. The SPAC run around the same time was UNBELIEVABLE, easily the best shows of the pre-break up tour in 04
2 of the best shows (spac) I’ve seen. Panty melters. Pretty much every jam in every song was a double, triple or home run.
best moma ever
Wow.
'03-04 was so f---ing good.
the tension / release at 9:18 is sensual
dope
This and the free are so sick especially seeing how strung out he wad
Just so good
wow. awesome.
oxy trey was kind of real gnarly
Best Moma ever ?
Clint Moll I think so. If anyone can find a better one I’m all ears
When Trey goes off in the later jam, even Fishman howls in astonishment! lol When you can get your 30 year friend and bandmate off, you are a sick fucking guitarist!
@PhishGuy20 Trey loves the drums! That's why when they change instruments occasionally during jams, Trey jumps on Fishman's kit!
Yes
This is fucking disgusting!
good stuff, people having a great time at an even, show, convert I dig Phish, 43vAh
finally this is on youtube
FIRE.
It’s so cool to see them dig the fuck into the music despite everything going on. In a lot of footage from this time period, the band looks dejected while Trey wastes away in front of them. Here the darkness comes through but the band is enjoying the moment.
Sin exagerar, que buena banda! 😎
AsI ES!
És un espetáculo my hermano
I was at the show Black Eyed Katy turned into Moma. I lost my mind. Don't hold me to it but I think it was around 97
Trey...knee deep in dem percs.
If there’s a better Moma ever I’d like to be pointed in that direction. I haven’t heard it
2-26-03

What is it with this show? They are so on! The moment ends though I feel winds!
Holy shit
