Whats with the beef with the second set? I know End of the World and Fly like an Eagle we a bit iffy but Mothership Connection! Major Tom!! Space Cowboy!!! GROVE IS IN THE HEART!!!! they could have played just that and I would have been happy. Parliment, Jamiroquai and DEE LITE, that set was straight FUNKY HEAT BABY and it was ILL AS FUCK. Had a great weekend, not quite the '04 Madison Hulaween, but mos def just as much fun, gotta love a cheese hulaween show and any cheese show for that matter, great band and truely some of the best people. Never a reason to hate just have a good time, and please everyone, stop comparing Cheese and Phish, they aren't the same. They are both great and they both put a great live show, lets just enjoy them while we can, they won't be around forever. And who cares if they sounded better back in the day, so did the Grateful Dead but Ill still go see senior citizens in Further, live music is about having a good time we don't need to point out the obvious that they were better in their prime, if you want to bitch about recent shows, please just stay home and listen to your old recordings. We dont need your shitty vibes.

Some of you may have read an extremely negative review I posted on this site last Sunday. I just wanted to apologize publicly for what I wrote, it was completely unnecessary and I feel bad for having done it. Everybody is entitled to their own opinions I apologize for mine being so vulgar.

went both nights. loved both. great to see the boys in the mothership. hopefully they can return next summer for an outdoor gig at the N-Telos Pavillion! 2nd night 2nd set was tough to wrap my head around at the time but it certainly makes sense now. Liza Oxnard and Keller are always great additions. seemed to rock deep in the night. can't wait for my copies of the show to crank da stank!!!! Oh yeah, phish is o.k. also.

Alright, first off; i was at the show and it was off the hook! Such high energy and great vibes all night! I have no complaints at all. Lot's of awesome covers as goes Halloween every year! I'm seing some mixed reviews about the second set but my personal opinion being someone who was about 12 rows from the stage for the intirety of it. IT WAS SICK! Now, being both a PHISH and SCI fan, I have no desire to get into a pissing contest between fans. Both throw amazing shows and blow your mind...and the Mothership experience was a fine example of why i love the Jam Band scene!

Just the facts.

1) The sound on these downloads is much better than the sound inside the Mothership. It is almost like listening to a different show.

2) there are sound and mix issues that keep this download from being as good as it could be.

2a) Kyle's microphone stops working for the first verse of 21st Century...
2b) Kang's amplifier cord snaps crackles pops and dies ...
2c) Keyboard mix is erratic in the first set. (sometimes WAY TOO LOUD)
2d) Such is life.

3) A Hulaween Incident is something you must experience in the flesh. No audio recording can capture the whole experience.

4) Highlights ... 1) Rivertrance! 2) Shine

Enjoy

Anyone who says that this show was off or lame in anyway must not have been experiencing the same show I was. This incident was not just a show, everyone was participating and really getting into the groove. 2nd set chock full of covers was absolutely killer. The mothership was soaring into space and when Keller and Liza came out for Mothership Connection, it was clear that we had resurfaced somewhere outside our native realm. At some moments things seemed a little loose, but it just added to the party atmosphere, these were mostly premiers in the 2nd set so give the guys a break they crushed it on these songs. I've definitely seen Phish completely flop a few cover premiers (In the Aeroplane Over The Sea at Merriweather) and I still thought that was a great show. Altogether incredible time and great vibes, if you left there with a bad taste in your mouth it was probably your fault. Long live SCI! Thanks everyone for an awesome time!

The one thing i hate is when people come on here and bitch. What the hell is that matter with all you people who do this? What would you rather have, cheese back playing or still on hiatus? Answer that question and that will decide if youre a true fan of their music or just someone who has nothing better to do than ruin the great vibe this band gives everyone. I drove across the country to see them and didnt have one bad moment. I am pumped that they are back and will go anywhere to see them and will not say one negative thing about it cuz they could not be playing at all!!!!
REMEMBER THAT!!!!!!!

You guys are nuts ..both bands are capable of putting on awesome shows ..but after seeing 5 nights of Phish last week and seeing Hulloween this weekend .. the energy at the Hulloween shows blew the Phish shows out of the water
