Continuing to break new venue ground, the 37th show of the tour is the only show at the Civic Auditorium in Santa Cruz and a pretty good one. Fishman continues to put on drum clinics night after night. The bust outs are huge, and the teases are all over the place. Not the best recording I've...

(Published in the second edition of The Phish Companion...) This was to be the last of five West Coast shows for me. After the show I was to drive straight to Los Angeles and then get on a plane and flew to Maui, so I decided to really blow it...

Notable Jam Chart Performances

Individual jam chart entries from this venue:

Great little "Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da" jam/tease, followed by a breakdown with exceptionally strong playing by Fish and a vocal jam-style ending.
1993-03-25 Magilla (3:52) Set 1
A strong, surprise version (the first in 114 shows), Trey glides through a "Stash" tease, and, true to the era, incorporates somewhat experimental playing, featuring a great shuffling, percussive sound. Page's first "Magilla" on acoustic piano is definitely worth hearing, it sounds fantastic.
1993-03-25 Stash (10:51) Set 1
The jam leaves the standard behind, comes back, leaves again on a different tangent, and finally returns to wrap up.
Strong Mike in a somewhat dissonant 1st jam. The 2nd jam is the first of several '93s which have jamming similar to the future "Simple." This one also has some good stop/start action, before more dissonant Trey and a percussive lead up to the closing.
