It's unfair to rate this show less than 4-5 stars. Things were running really, really late, no Phish, and we were all wondering what was going on. My buddy who was a fellow student at UB was working stage / crew for this show (he worked crew for all the UB shows). He runs out, in the barrier...

This was my 1st show. 20 years ago today. I could write volumes about the effect that this show had on my life, but I will try to be brief. I went into this show with absolutely no expectations, as I had never even really heard Phish before. I am a professional drummer and at the time I was...

This show has several of the songs that were routinely great in Spring 94. The reliable Runaway Jim opener gets things off to a good start. It's Ice is executed nicely. Split Open and Melt brings the heat, and Down with Disease is a good example of the guitar workouts found in the early...

the 'hood' is sublime...the magic they had the ENTIRE show the night prior is rekindled for this to-die-for trip to 'harold' land

P.S.- I forgot to mention my recollection of the stool. I'm pretty sure that Trey started out trying to sit on the stool and that he kept standing up. By the end of the 1st set, I think he gave up completely and just stood for the rest of the show. He was playing drums on I Wanna Be Like...

4/10/94 Alumni Arena on UB's North Campus in Buffalo NY. It was a beautiful day, spring sun, great vibe, $10 tickets, pre-lot-security lot scene of super laid backness and great times and hack circles. The venue was a typical hollow sounding college gymnasium, but it was a shallow setup with the...

Considring Trey injured his ankle...DWD was SOLID and worth a listen.

On the stool: I don’t recall a stool at all. I am sure that it was there, but this was my fourth show and I feel I should have noted it as odd if he used it for the majority of the show. My recollection agrees with @broomecountyforumite but perhaps it was more like @devoreprise said and I just...

Notable Jam Chart Performances

Individual jam chart entries from this venue:

1994-04-10 • Run Like an Antelope (13:28) Set 2 Noteworthy
Jam starts off with some good rhythmic changes, builds in tension, then there is a major break at 6:55 into some great and cool exploratory jamming which gets back to "Antelope" by 9:25.
1994-04-10 • Harry Hood (12:06) Set 2 Noteworthy
A "Classic '94" jam begins with a great early section that has a good Fish-driven pulse, then Trey starts to add power with strummed chords. The intense peaking section concludes with really incredible trilling by Trey.
A good, gripping and improvisational "SOAM" with great tension.
1994-04-10 • It's Ice (9:12) Set 1
Good solid rocking jam with Page leading the way.
A "Rockin' Back Inside My Heart" jam (Julee Cruise) occurs in the outro section.
1994-04-10 • Ya Mar (9:17) Set 2
Great interplay by the band during Trey's solo, with delicate precision.
