THE GOOD: This show is overshadowed by the night before, but I think it is the better of the two. The band plays energized, which is evident from the Wilson opener containing playful little breaks and the very strong Foam. The Stash here is a gem and is the bigger brother to the version from the...

My first show, and sadly I missed the opener. The venue and lot were about a mile apart, and the shuttle buses they were operating stopped running at some point when the boarding process got out of hand. I'll never forget seeing a state trooper standing on top of one of the buses with a...

My first show too. We had to park in grass along the I-80 exit ramp and walk an hour plus to get to the venue. Missed the first set, but the second set was worth it, especially the Popper appearance. Crazy walk back to our car as people were just jumping on car hoods and trunks to catch rides...

Prince Caspian sure was short in these days, wasn't it? Great setlist, as was typical of the time: all killer, no filler. Simple to open the show is interesting... Reba is really good, but my favorite version (12/31/95) hasn't been surpassed so far, in my listening. The You Enjoy Myself vocal jam...

This was my first show and now that it’s been many, many years I still remember bits and pieces of it. The logistical setup of the place was nightmarish. The venue itself had the feel of a makeshift attempt at trying to keep something alive that should have been let to die. Nowadays you can go...

Notable Jam Chart Performances

Individual jam chart entries from this venue:

1995-06-23 You Enjoy Myself (24:15) Set 1 Noteworthy
THRILLING jam!
1995-06-23 Run Like an Antelope (13:51) Set 2 Noteworthy
1995's most exploratory, improvisational version. One of the "Antelope" clan which weaves back and forth between familiar ground and improvisation. The jam here gets out into some spacey and eerie Summer '95-style territory.
1995-06-23 Reba (14:46) Set 1
"Plinko" play from Trey, periodically offset by strumming, jumpstarts the jam, and works to create incredible syncopation. Predictably great guitar is matched by Mike, with the two musicians not so much dueling, as driving the version through any number of impressive ideas and rhythmic shifts. Great and unpredictable improvisation follows, with all four members contributing in equal measure, as if exacting a singular vision.
1995-06-23 Runaway Jim (13:16) Set 2
Red hot, strong, compact, and unusual second set opener, Fish, direct from the vocals, drives strong and Impassioned play, the four Creating a controlled cacophony (typical fare for the year), with Mike holding some great notes and igniting great patterned play, page Pounding his keys before Trey alights on a riff which rises to break free to inform incendiary soloing. Play gets really cool as the band drives to a false peak and the jam becomes demented, an extended passage of "not at all what's expected,'" before the traditional spirited release -> into "The Lizards."
1995-06-23 Jam (2:15) Set 2
John Popper on harmonica. -> in from "Harpua," during which Jimmy decides he hates the band Abba, and needs to listen to some rocking harmonica music, which is precisely what this jam is. -> to "Llama."
"Bowie" -> "Donna Lee" -> "Bowie." After a gentle start, the jam grows typically dissonant and tension filled. Some "DEG"-like jamming adds to this effect.
1993-07-25 Donna Lee (1:40) Set 1
-> in from "DB." Played during the "DB" intro. Sadly, this is the band's last performance of this classic Charlie Parker jazz tune.
1993-07-25 David Bowie (10:45) Set 1
-> in from "Donna Lee." Great jam with tension and dissonance and some "DEG"-like jamming as well.
