I can't tell if you object to the whole concept of lists/rankings or object to the way we've done it or just object to the results. But I do want to respond to one thing you've said:

To think someone not familiar with the band could see this list, and not ever listen to 8-29 is criminal.

Anyone who bases all of their listening choices on what is posted on the front page of this website is a complete idiot, and we can't be held responsible for stupidity.

These lists are always meant to be a fun exercise. If we wanted to tell people what Phish shows they should or should not listen to, almost all of us would respond with "Listen to it ALL, because only YOU will be able to tell what you love and what you don't." And it would be for exactly the reasons you outlined.

But that makes for a pretty short and dull blog post.

LOL....was thinking exactly the same thing about exactly the same line.
