Phish just wrapped up their second night of their two-night run at the Saratoga Performing Arts Center in Saratoga Springs, New York.

The band started the show with an uproarious start with “Fluffhead” that immediately had to dangle the energy in front of the crowd for about two or three minutes while a bass technical issue was rectified. A great version of the song followed and anyone chasing “Fluffhead” was just given the memory of a lifetime.

ALBANY — Fela! The Concert, a touring show adapted from the Broadway musical about Afrobeat pioneer Fela Kuti, will replace Yamato: The Drummers of Japan in a world-music concert at the Saratoga Performing Arts Center on July 29 as a result of the drumming troupe canceling its American tour after a visa denial by the federal government.

On Wednesday night, Phish put on a display of variety worthy of a closing night at Saratoga Performing Arts Center. Night 2 at SPAC was witness to a “Fluffhead” opener, “Sleep” for the first time in 289 shows, as well as a “Plasma” sandwich closed out by an additional “Tweezer Reprise”. As the band heads into a holiday weekend stint at Boston’s Fenway Park, Phish proved again on Wednesday that they’re firing on all cylinders heading into the latter part of summer tour.

Dead and Company ushered in the summer concert season at SPAC on Tuesday, June 18 with their bluesy, jazzy jam sessions that lasted late into the warm evening. The music phenomenon brought throngs of fans to the venue that also brought the culture of Shake Down Street, free love and weed with them to the outdoor venue. While the music was exceptional, with musicians demonstrating unusual versatility and impressive control over their instruments, the night was overshadowed by a darker theme of overindulgence and lack of civility among fans.

Dead & Company played their first concert of the summer on the East Coast on Tuesday at SPAC in Saratoga Springs, New York.
