This was my third show, sixteen years old and in the mist of a six show run. I sat 5th row center, never been that close since that night, during Wolfman's Brother I stood on my chair did a double finger point at Page and said "YOU!!!" He looked back at me, gave me smile a quick thumbs up and I...

An absolutely ridiculous show, one of the best shows of Phish's game-changing month of August 1993, and a show thoroughly deserving of its LivePhish status. Just a couple notes, in lieu of a full-on review: 1. It's actually kind of nice to get a Melt that doesn't go into full-scale...

You may look at this setlist (especially the second set) and think "meh", but there are two fantastic jams in this show in Gumbo and Wolfman's Brother. Gumbo is funky and develops into a heavier rock jam. Also worth mentioning from the first set is It's Ice, which contains a pretty long and...

I remember watching and taping this Farm Aid show from country music television onto a VHS cassette and then onto a maxell tape so I could listen to this down by the river with Neil Young! Birds of a Feather through Moma Dance are pretty straight forward being a TV appearance and all. About...

(Published in the second edition of The Phish Companion...) Many have heard this show, thanks to the LivePhish release. I was so happy they put out a soundboard of this one. After the Murat this is a close second for my favorite show I've...

Maybe I was spoiled, but this was the first show I left feeling kinda, meh.... It was a great rock concert, the Gumbo alone is worth the price of admission. My girlfriend was seeing her second of five shows and that could have played a part. Thankfully, Alpine and Deer Creek got rid of the meh...

This was a fun show. The Gumbo was super funky and cool. The piano solo in Lizards is still burned into my memory. It is one of my favorite Lizards because of this. Mikes bass in wolfman's>Free was rattling the entire venue. Limb by limb was very cool too. The Chalkdust was super high...

I feel like this show is often forgotten when discussions of the best shows of 1998 come up, but do yourself a favor and check it out. It starts out with very well played versions of Birds of a Feather, Farmhouse and Moma Dance. The Runaway Jim is 20 minutes long (including the "Arc" noise jam...

Show was great, but this venue could use some serious work. Maybe a patch of grass or a tree. Just my opinion.

Notable Jam Chart Performances

Individual jam chart entries from this venue:

1993-08-14 • Run Like an Antelope (12:50) Set 2 Noteworthy
"Antelope" -> "Sparks" -> "Walk Away" -> "Antelope" -> "Have Mercy" -> "Antelope." In very good company with other major segue-fests, including the "Tweezerfest" (5/7/94) and "Stash" (11/14/95). What distinguishes this epic version is that strong improvisation is combined with melodic beauty that at times is even upbeat and inspirational. But it's also "Antelope" so expect no shortage of tension and dissonance either!
1993-08-14 • Sparks (2:39) Set 2 Noteworthy
-> in from "RLAA." First stop on an epic, "Antelope"-based segue-fest. -> to "Walk Away."
1993-08-14 • Walk Away (3:38) Set 2 Noteworthy
-> from "Sparks." Part of a massive and epic "Antelope"-based segue-fest which -> back to "RLAA."
1993-08-14 • Run Like an Antelope (6:36) Set 2 Noteworthy
-> in from "Walk Away." This fantastic "Antelope" and segue-fest continues and -> to "Have Mercy."
1993-08-14 • Have Mercy (3:05) Set 2 Noteworthy
-> in from "RLAA." This epic segue-fest continues with some melodic relief from the intense sections of "Antelope" that precede it. -> to "RLAA" to finish off this masterpiece.
1993-08-14 • Run Like an Antelope (2:00) Set 2 Noteworthy
-> in from "Have Mercy." Here concludes one of, if not THE finest "Antelope" versions in the history of the Universe.
-> from Neil Young's "Arc." Distortion and feedback fade away as the opening notes to "DBTR" begin. Neil leads the band through the song, and then the beginning of the jam sees fun interplay between he and Trey, as they trade solos. The jam is straightforward and hard rocking, as one would expect with this guest on stage. As the jam fades away, the band returns to the chorus one last time.
1997-08-08 • Gumbo (15:29) Set 1
Not a funk fest like most '97 "Gumbos." Trey-led soloing over a funky groove leads to a more rock and roll jam with a repetitive riff from Trey.
1997-08-08 • It's Ice (10:27) Set 1
Weird, spacey, Trey-Mike-led jam.
Multifaceted jam that works through several funk sections, quickly lets loose to rock mode, then returns to more funk and more rocking before -> to "Free."
1997-08-08 • Free (9:25) Set 2
Great -> in from a very solid "Wolfman's Brother." The jam while similar to the post '95 - '96 jam is its own beast; very cool.
In addition to (typically '97) adept playing, this version also has a cool build to the big peak, starting at about 7:40.
Raging version that keeps rising from one peak to the next.
1993-08-14 • Divided Sky (14:37) Set 1
Despite being consistently well played, "Divided" was largely kept on a short leash throughout 1993. This excellent version is an exception.
1993-08-14 • It's Ice (9:02) Set 1
"Dance Of The Sugar Plum Fairy" tease by Page. Solid version with excellent Fish and Page teaming at the end of the jam.
