Phish continued their four-night Halloween run at Las Vegas’ MGM Grand Garden Arena last night with the penultimate show of the run, leading up to tonight’s grand finale with a two-set affair that featured plenty of jams and a second-set bustout cover.

As was the case with the first two nights, Phish kicked off set one with a throwback to their 2014 Halloween show in Vegas with another Chilling, Thrilling Sounds cut, “The Dogs.” The band had previously started out with “Martian Monster” and “The Birds” for nights one and two, respectively. The tune was quickly followed up with the holiday-appropriate “Ghost,” which kept the funky energy flowing into a Mike Gordon led “Funky Bitch” that included a solid organ solo from Page McConnell and an absolutely frenzied “Chalk Dust Torture.”

McConnell then took the spotlight for his “Army of One” ballad before the radio-ready “Heavy Things.” Gordon once again led the way in “How Many People are You,” with Trey Anastasio taking a bouncy guitar solo near the close. Anastasio took control for a super slinky “Stash” which saw the guitarist build to to a rapid-fire climax. A run of “Theme From the Bottom” and “Suzy Greenberg” closed out the first set.

“Down with Disease” opened up set number two with a mix of varied jamming keys and textures, employing all four members of the band with well-integrated interply. After stretching the tune to around 20 minutes, “Birds of a Feather” then followed and held up admirably next to the impressive “Disease.” The ubiquitous “Fuego” and Anastasio’s Big Boat ballad “Miss You” brought the set to its midpoint.

A slow but bombastic beginning to “Harry Hood” led into some more fast-paced jamming and ultimately the first “Have Mercy” since June 4, 2011. The cover then led back into a euphoric outro to “Harry Hood.” A McConnell-led cover of The Beatles “A Day in the Life” rounded out the set before the band returned to the stage for the encore favorite, “Character Zero.”
