@FunkyBdawg say what you want about tDB but their crowd knows how to party.

What does this even mean? That they do drugs? Phish fans know how to party too, right? What about sober fans of Phish, do they know how to party? (I guess they partied out, kinda.) Are we implying Goose fans don't know how to party, and that's a reason to hate the band?

Feels like gatekeeping to me. I'll just add "Goose fans can't party like Bisco fans" to the growing list of hilarious reasons Phish fans hate Goose.

I don't hate Goose. I've seen them four times now. They can play their instruments for sure. Especially the new drummer. But I find their jams to be predictable and therefore quickly stale. And the 'Gooooose' chant from fans between every song is insufferable.

These are all reasonable takes, and presented as your personal opinions based on clear experience. Nothing but support from me on this. I don't have a problem with the Goose chant, personally speaking. I also agree that their jams can be predictable sometimes - they definitely have a sound and sometimes follow a formula.

@raidcehlalred not exactly what you are looking for in terms of "here's what I think is the best Goose has to offer", but this is a nice run of songs from their recent Milwaukee run. I really like all three songs that they played in this one, not even talking about the jams. I have no idea how these live versions stack up with others, just wanted to share some good recent stuff that makes great background music if nothing else.
