Best Tube of 2012?

themindpilot Permalink
themindpilot I personally think the one from Bader Field on 6/15/12 takes the cake. Cool start/stop jam with loads of funkyness. Sooooo sick!





What do you guys think the best tube of 2012 was?

Not as funky as the Bader Field one, which I do like a lot, but the transition to Psycho and then back into to Tube is just perfect.

Do it. I'm generally not a big fan of Tube, but this was electrifying sandwich artistry!

Penn42 AC Tube is, by combination of its relative brevity and downright spectacularity, my most listened to jam of 2012.

beanholestatus Permalink
beanholestatus tough decision between Atlantic City and MSG, AC's is just funky as hell with the start and stops but the MSG one goes to places ive never heard in a tube.

Andrewishomer AC Tube was great and probably the best.

SPAC Tube> Psycho Killer> Tube was also great... Maybe better.

MSG Tube I have listened back to a bunch of times, and even there was thinking it was better than many of the Tubes I have seen or heard. At around 1:52 the band really starts to sound like they are about to explode or something. I can put myself in that moment again for sure, just thinking about it.

So really if Phish just goes out of the ordinary on, while not too much out of the ordinary, It will always be awesome, but too short. I think that long tube is coming, just gotta be patient just like the band I guess.

DanceTheJig728 AC for the jam itself, SPAC for the awesome "holy-shit" moment.

Saw all three...and although AC is the longest and SPAC has the fun factor dialed to the extreme, MSG is the most musically satisfying to my ears.

You know what... Agreed. I have already listened to the MSG version again more times than either of the two Tubes combined from the Summer.

Psycho Tube did it for me.. the transitions were so clean and it was definitely some of the highest energy ive ever felt from a crowd..
Score: 1

SpiritWolf Permalink
SpiritWolf 1. AC, some solid funk and killer bass, fun start stops.

2. MSG, funky and very spacious, ethereal at times.

Tube> Psych Killer> Tube was fun and tight, but the tube sections were standard.

Agree with these guys. I was at SPAC and MSG, but AC is just too good.
