Hi everybody and welcome to today's episode of Attendance Bias. I am your host, Brian Weinstein. I have a feeling that, pretty soon, I’m going to have to rename this podcast “Recency Bias,” since I’ve received a ton of requests from people who want to come on the show and talk about shows from Phish’s 2025 summer tour. Not that it hasn’t happened before, but there was something about this tour that awakened the fanbase. People who saw Phish for the first time, or the 200th time are eager to talk about 2025. Luckily, for today’s episode, my friends Casey and Jenn have a great story to tell, as we explore their summer through bookends of the 2025 tour. We review the third night of the opening run in Manchester, June 22, 2024 then fast forward to the tour closing show: night three at Saratoga, 7/27/25.

If you are a regular listener, you may remember Casey and Jenn from their preview of the SNHU Arena in Manchester during the summer venue preview series. They both live in Manchester, and decided to get married before night 1 of that run. That obviously made the night special in its own way, but it wasn’t until the third night of Manchester where Phish dropped a Tweezerfest in the 2nd set where everything clicked musically.

Then there’s the third night of SPAC where Phish played one of the most memorable shows in years. The first set caught everyone off guard as the band blended great, cohesive jamming with unprecedented setlist games, playing Tweezer Reprise to end nearly every song. Although the venue was still standing as we left, our minds were shattered in the best ways possible.

It’s not often that the first and last stands of a summer tour have the same energy and memorable personalities, but 2025 is the gift that keeps on giving. Join Casey and Jenn to hear about baked beans, Lee’s Campground, bingo boards, and more as we discuss Summer 2025 bookends from Manchester and Saratoga.
