Yup, this is the one I've been looking for. Sure, 6/20 and 6/24 are cool, but this is a much finer take than anything else up to this point on this tour. Coupla new songs out the gate, fine, but then, *again*, we get another f***ing awesome Taste. Respect. Continuing the Billy theme we get the...
A party show, complete with charming Fishman song(!!!!), Disease reprise, and big bold segues in the second. This was an early fan favourite in Europe, nicely foreshadowing the grassy-field gaiety of Summer '97 and the huge party at the Went. The first set is inessential, as I recall, but now...

We arrived in Lille after a three-hour train ride from Strasbourg. It was pouring rain, and after finding no hostels, we found a cheap hotel and an even cheaper bottle of red wine on our...
Anyone who is interested in shows that showcase the antics of Phish (fans of MPP 7/27/14 II) with fresh and unique takes on old numbers are going to love set II. The kick off is a highpowered romp that starts to dig, and deep it goes. Who knew the controls were set to the center of the earth for...
One of the weirdest Post 93' 2nd sets I've ever heard.
Bag makes a strong tour debut. Saw it again is extra venomous very strong. Besides that I don't have much to say about set 1 basically because most of it is the songs they've played consistently every night. And all are played very well...
Pretty good show. We see some nice jamming from the band (and I mean heavy jamming at points!). Olivia's Pool is such a fun show opener followed by the upbeat DST. ACDC Bag has its funky moments while Limb By Limb finally shows us that it can shine in a set.
DWD is extensively jammed out,...
SET 1: Olivia's Pool: Standard.
Dogs Stole Things: Standard.
Taste: Standard.
Billy Breathes: Standard.
AC/DC Bag: Sick, little funk jam with Mike popping of some tremendous bombs. 2.14 and 2.21 can’t boast this funk jam so it make this Bag unique and jamchart worthy, would recommend!...
-> in from "Meatstick." A very unusual version. It starts in a swirly, funky mode, then shifts to a reggae style when the lyrics commence, and includes "Makisupa" teases. Trey narrates the lyrics in a style similar to the earliest versions (pre August '87). Page's solo is unusually quiet, but otherwise straightforward. A spacey ending transitions to "Makisupa."
