This first set is one of the must-hear sequences of Europe '97, from the dancefreak rave-up into Cities to the unearthly quiet of Horn > Funny > LxL. Phish just never play sets like this in the U.S. - they can't, in those big rooms and country sheds - so the small-venue shows of winter and summer...

Taste rules. Taste really ruled in 1997. European Tastes from 1997? They seem to be the cream of the crop (even though Trey fucks this one up during the final build, which I hate to admit isn't out of the ordinary). Nice start to the show, and rather than jumping into another tune, they start...

It's funny talking about how the *second* set is the pretty good one and the first set is the monster, but this is one of those precious few shows where that's the case, so we'll start from the 2nd frame. Bowie starts off contemplative, almost Hood-like in its jam, then gets off-kilter like it's...

First of all, this show has a tremendous setlist. You have the new songs, the classic songs, the slow songs, the fast songs, literally a great combo of everything. But there's something intimate about that first set that's pretty rare for a Phish show. The outro of both Cities and Horn...

The best show yet of this tour! Things are gradually coming together jam and set construction wise! Taste is a nice ripper to kick things off. The jam after is a super weird one, very nice and cohesive and of course a pretty good segue into Cities. Fish is all over cities although its...

Notable Jam Chart Performances

Individual jam chart entries from this venue:

1997-06-20 Twist (13:18) Set 2
A straightforward, but funkified jam breaks around 8:00 into a low key, funky jam that at times sounds similar to Santana's "Oye Como Va" before returning to "Twist." The "Oye Como Va" connection would solidify with time.
1997-06-20 Jam (5:16) Set 1
> in from "Taste." A weird, funky jazz-like jam which -> to "Cities."
