What a show,those on tour that skipped Ottawa sure missed a beauty. Curtain>Jimmy Page,SOLID Stash,early rocking Disease. The 2nd speaks for itself,Punch opener..Quite possibly my favorite Bathtub Gin,1st Cities since 89'.YEM and Fishman antics.This is a keeper!

Fun Summer '94 show. Nothing too spectacular, but a well played show nonetheless. The Curtain > Letter to Jimmy Page is really nice with a well executed pre-planned seque taboot. The If I Could that follows is nice as well. Stash isn't that great considering how many awesome ones there are in...

The first and likely last appearance in Ottawa was an early example of the "you snooze you lose" show Phish tended to unleash at out-of-the-way, sparsely attended venues to reward the loyal fans who showed up. One of the hallmarks of such shows are bustouts, and Letter to Jimmy Page and Cities...

Notable Jam Chart Performances

Individual jam chart entries from this venue:

1994-07-05 Stash (12:12) Set 1
Especially after 8:00, this one falls into the "extreme" category, with dissonance and chaos run amuck.
1994-07-05 Esther (9:43) Set 1
Early "Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy" teasing is enhanced by great Trey, whose unique soloing features dynamic modulation before the band comes togehter for a strong conclusion and a great > into "DwD."
1994-07-05 Bathtub Gin (12:45) Set 2
Great, multi-section, power rocking jam which really doesn't sound anything like "Gin." Briefly returns to "Gin" before > to "Lifeboy." Soundboard version released on FTA Superball IX, Pt. 2.
Weird jam. "Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy" tease from Trey in the VJ.
