What a fantastic night of music. The Phish set was really nice. Highlights for me were the great traditional pairing of Oh Kee Pa>Suzy with the horns and the rocking Cavern. The thing that made this night so great for me was seeing ARU for the first time. They were incredible and I think...

As far as I knew I was the only person that recorded this show on an old school reel to reel with a radio shack condensor mic.... that i transferred to a cassette tape. ARU performance was insane. Apt Q258 had his head shaved by a woman in a Wizard costume... while many people were on stage...

I was at this show. Five dollar entrance w/ Phish stub. Fish and Col. Bruce sat right in front of me for the whole show. What can I say other than that after walking ALL THE WAY ACROSS ATL to get to Fox because of Freaknik and then dancing the whole show, my legs were jelly. I had a chance to...

What a bummer that the second set got cancelled, this show sounds better than the previous two. I guess they couldn't plug in a tape recorder either. Anyway, pretty good half-show. Lots of teases here and there. It almost sounds like a "Few of my Favorite Things" tease and "Have you Ever...

I'll leave a more objective review (does such a thing really exist?) for someone else. For my part, the first half of this show was nothing too special as I listened at my desk at work. Typically good Fall 1991 playing, which is becoming an early high-water mark for the band, but nothing...

This was my first actual PHiSH tape to receive in a trade back on spring Grateful Dead tour 1992, and is still a favorite. I had heard them on the lot in Cal Expo summer 1991, and then in some random encounters across fall tour, but this was my actual first PHiSH tape. Several things about...

Notable Jam Chart Performances

Individual jam chart entries from this venue:

1991-11-09 Fluffhead (14:04) Set 2 Noteworthy
Few versions of this incredibly challenging song approach perfection, but this is one of the few, and for that reason is must-hear. The early, technically challenging sections are nearly spotless. Then the entire band gets on a red-hot tear working through Who Do? We Do! In Clod, Page and Mike are fantastic. Trey's blistering solo in Arrival is top notch. And Fish, he just crushes all 14 minutes of this superb rendering.
1991-11-09 Tweezer (11:11) Set 2
Several quick "Band on the Run" teases from Trey.
