Review by EUPhan

My first show. Didn't have tickets and the lady behind the counter was speaking to me in English although the show was in Germany. Turned out that 90% of the attendees were Americans. I know ratings for this show are quite weak but it was my first Phish show ever and it changed my life! I will never forget this show. Only knew Billy Breathes at the time and didn't really know what to expect. It was the most unusual and enegetic live experience I ever had up to this date.

Score: 8

Review by zsmith0307

The highlights are few and far between.
The first set is completely inessential. It's cool hearing Phish as a backing blues band, but it is really nothing to seek out.
The second set doesn't get much better. The DWD is the worst of tour so far (really just a sign of how great all the other versions this tour have been). As noted above, Page's outro to Caspian is very sweet. La Grange is fun to hear. But really, please skip this one, especially considering how much better the next night is.

2/5

PHISH, TUESDAY 02/25/1997
INCOGNITO
Munich, Germany

SET 1:

Runaway Jim: Standard. >

My Soul: Standard.

One Meatball[1], Little Red Rooster[1], Got My Mojo Working[1] - Probably a lot of fun for the performers but not sure it translates well on tape. Maybe it did live in the flesh.

Stash: Standard.

Waste: Standard. >

Taste: Standard.

Loving Cup: Standard.

SET 2:

Beauty of My Dreams: Standard. >

Sample in a Jar: Standard. >

Punch You in the Eye: Standard. >

Free: Standard.

Fee[2] Standard. ->

My Friend, My Friend[3] Trey train wrecks this intro and then abruptly, LOL. He sounds pissed too.

Down with Disease: Trey goes into the closing stanza and totally catches Page off guard. Rough. >

Prince Caspian: Standard.

La Grange: Standard.

Sweet Adeline: Standard.

ENCORE:

Chalk Dust Torture: Standard.

Summary: One of the weakest shows in the late 90’s. It’s super bland and bereft of highlights. 2/5.

Replay Value: None.

[1] Phish debut, Sydney Ellis on vocals.
[2] Trey sang verses through megaphone.
[3] Aborted quickly and scrapped.

One Meatball through Mojo Workin’ were Phish debuts that featured Sydney Ellis on vocals. Trey sang the verses of Fee through a megaphone. My Friend was aborted quickly and scrapped.
