Pretty good show they have here. Antelope lets you know they are here to get this shit done it frigging rocks. An always welcomed Mgrupp. Then you have an amazing YEM with a happy birthday tease for Max who's birthday it is and dedicates it to him. Foam is always a great song for me to hear (love...

This was my third Phish show - and my first Widespread show! I remember it being awesome, I didn't quite know the songs yet but I was learning. My memory of the show is pretty vague - the things that stand out are: during WSP, Michael Houser sitting behind everyone else even though he was the...

In keeping with my practice of not just rating the music, but also considering the quality of the recording in these shows from the spreadsheet, I have to go one star for this. The guitar and bass are so low in the mix that when Page and Fishman are playing, you can't hear them at all. If you...

Fun show and again a freezing cold phish event. I stayed at my cousins in Kingston RI as she was at URI with all her grlfriends. I came up with some of my buddies and we lit the place up and partied hard this night. It was a decent ride to the show and amazingly-it was sold out! I was like...

Some decent stuff, here. Phish is introduced as the hardest working rock 'n' roll band in the land. For most of Antelope, Trey is waaaay high in the mix and washes everything else out, but that seems to get corrected. Highlight for me was the YEM, a laid-back and interesting version, played...

This might be the best I've heard Trey play throughout an entire set up to this point in the band's history. I agree with other reviewers that the levels are a bit out of whack in Antelope, and you can hear Trey (too loudly) playing with letting notes ring out for what sounds like intentionally...

This is a pretty enjoyable show. Phish 1990 is finally starting to round into form and is playing all the new material very deftly. There are a lot of songs established in 1990 to enjoy from this show. That being said, the first set is fairly average, and the real highlights come in the second...

(Published in the second edition of The Phish Companion...) A show that will forever live in infamy. There was a sign above the bar at the grungy Living Room that read, “Maximum Capacity 175.” I estimate that there were at least four hundred in...

Fantastic audience recording available for this show. It sounds like a digital recording but a Sony D5 is listed as the recording deck. Big thanks to John Redmond! The northeastern swing has had some great recordings! A solid Mike’s Groove opens things up with a blistering Groove. Possum...

1990-05-11 • Possum (9:10) Set 1
"Johnny B. Goode" teases plus a somewhat dissonant and incendiary conclusion to the jam. This is a serious ripper.
