This was the first show I ever saw and it was crazy. I had know about Phish for a few years but had never gone to check them out. I borrowed a few tapes from a buddy but they didn't really do much for me. Then a friend hooked me up with 11th row center and the rest is history. They came out and...

First Phish show for myself and all I wanted to hear was David Bowie. Wouldn't you know it, Phish opened with Bowie and I obviously was hooked for life!!!!!!! Can't really remember much else, but I found the second set Weekapaug to be excellent after re-listening to recently. Adam

Interesting David Bowie intro, almost sounded like Timber! teasing. The Golgi is kind of unusual, as is the Weekapaug. Rest of the show is standard, and set II ends up on a weird note...after the HYHU Fish doesn't banter at all like he usually does, just starts singing Bike and really rushes...

This is the first and only performance at the Auditorium Theatre, sixth show of the tour. After a day off, we have solid playing for the most part, and minimal sound problems for Paul. That makes this one an enjoyable listen. Good recording as well. Nice Bowie to open up with while Paul...

**This is my sixth of (hopefully) 71 reviews as I listen to the entire winter/spring '93 tour.** There's not a whole lot to say about this lackluster show. Perhaps my expectations were a little high due to a great setlist and the previous show kicking serious butt. Regardless, this show...

Notable Jam Chart Performances

Individual jam chart entries from this venue:

1993-02-09 David Bowie (12:27) Set 1
Jam sounds like it's peaking, but at 9:10 this "Bowie" heads out for more dissonant and exploratory jamming.
1993-02-09 The Wedge (6:24) Set 1
A modified, percussive intro provides a glimpse of the form the song will soon assume. A strong outro, featuring great work from Trey and Page, highlights an evolutionary marker in the development of this song.
1993-02-09 Esther (10:16) Set 1
Signal-laden intro with fun stop / start playing. Trey even seems to sing with a sense of urgency, before great soloing gives way to thoughtful and inspired full-band playing.
The jam goes "Type II" almost immediately, seamlesessly alternating between standard melodic "Weekapaug" jamming and sparser, dissonant sections found throughout '93 and '94. Very strong improvisation within the context of "Weekapaug."
1993-02-09 Stash (10:20) Set 2
By far the most exploratory and different jam through this date. Very innovative and very excellent. Unfinished.
