Why has no one reviewed this stellar show? It obviously gets overlooked from a week of great shows but dont miss this second set!! The Antelope in particular is an off the hook, lightning fast rager, not to be missed and deserves a spot as one of the best ever played...

In May '92, my brother and I were big Blues Traveler fans. So when our favorite magazine, Rolling Stone, published a very entertaining article about them putting together a summer touring festival with a bunch of their favorite and like-minded bands, my brother immediately went out and bought The...

The early mainstage sets were highlighted by the only full-lineup (including Count Mbutu but not Jeff Mosier) Col. Bruce Hampton & The Aquarium Rescue Unit set I would ever see. I knew their live album well, and would leave that day with their new studio album. Unbelievable musicians. Big Head...

Rating this higher than it probably deserves because it is a unique show in format. Also, this venue provided a flavor for the larger sized amphitheaters the band would come to fill with energy in the years ahead, so it was a nice tease. It was also nice to see so many people who might have been...

This show is very good. Solid all around. First set highlights for me are as follows: DWD: Very nice rocking jam that reaches a good peak. Nice way to start the show! Gumbo: Page shines on the baby grand at the end of this Gumbo before > into rift. SOAMelt: Intense, energy packed jam...

This one of my personal favorites. Was still in high school and drove from Washington down to Richmond with tour pals in a combo van (yes indeed, the perfect vehicle for tour). The venue was tucked behind an industrial park, that seemed to be an endless field of mud and maybe even a racetrack....

THE GOOD: This is a short HORDE tour show and there's not much in here, save for the rowdiness in YEM. John Popper guests, playing along in the jam, and he is quite prominent in the mix, and for fans of guest musicians, I guess that it is interesting. Honestly, though, this jam doesn't translate...

Notable Jam Chart Performances

Individual jam chart entries from this venue:

1994-06-30 Split Open and Melt (11:42) Set 1 Noteworthy
High power, high intensity improvisational jam includes unusual Trey vocals near the end and a really cool ending.
1994-06-30 Run Like an Antelope (12:47) Set 2 Noteworthy
Far-ranging jam that gets well beyond standard "Antelope." Incredibly intense but not chaotic. Great strumming by Trey in the peak section.
