This show was billed as “The Vermont Easter Jam” and featured scheduled performances from The Unknown Blues Band, a duet with
Jamie Masefield and
Paul Asbell interpreting the music of
Django Reinhardt, and the
Grippo Funk Band. After these performances there was an unannounced set by TAB. Page sat in from “Small Axe” through “Chalk Dust.” Fish sat in from “Last Tube” through “Chalk Dust.” Mike joined in for “Sand” and “Chalk Dust.” During “Sand” members of Trey’s group gradually left the stage, leaving Phish alone to complete “Sand” and perform “Chalk Dust.” The cover of
Stevie Wonder’s “Higher Ground” featured all the members of both Phish and Trey’s ensemble, Jamie Masefield, Seth Yacovone and others. This gig was a benefit for the
Winooski Parks & Recreation Department, Burlington
Women’s Rape Crisis Center, and the Child Life Department of
Vermont Children’s Hospital.
