First thing's first: The Dog Log in the soundcheck is pretty amusing. First, as is so often the case, they play it for Paul, and call it "Rude Log" and then Mike starts in with "Rude's Log, Stardate 12-6." Then there is a whole bunch of banter, especially from Trey to Marley, telling her that...

Small point of correction to TheEmu: They were saying "Root Log" at the beginning of Dog Log. It's a mathematical shorthand, though far be it from me to delve back to my junior year in high school to try to remember exactly what the hell it is. Sorry, Mr. Carlone.

(Originally published on the legacy Phish.net site many years ago, after being posted to rec.music.phish 12/7/91.) *This was quite a strange version of Guelah. Page and Trey kind missed the cue for the Asse Festival, and then Trey's guitar completely shit the bed. So they stopped Guelah,...

(Originally published on the legacy Phish.net site many years ago...) I wish I was as put off as I was the night of the Middlebury show. First thing first. The venue was a really cool place, a bit small, but if you hung upstairs there was plenty o space to groove (but you couldnt really see...

It was nice to hear the soundcheck in the bootleg. Memories was cut from the bootleg I heard. Average show for this time period. For some reason Fishman kept saying Alligator during YEM. Whipping Post was a scream fest, from what I read, the crowd did deserve it. Wait is pretty funny...

False start from Fish on Foam - someone forgot to turn on his snares. Cool vocal effects that I'm assuming must be effects and not just acoustics since this is a SBD and I've heard similar stuff for Foam, among others, around this time period. Everything here is good, though I have one complaint:...

Notable Jam Chart Performances

Individual jam chart entries from this venue:

1991-12-06 Magilla (3:16) Set 1
Super, compact, and tease-filled (see "show notes"), Page powers through this fun, dynamic version, which modulates nicely before a > into "The Landlady." A really great version, and a really great pairing.
1991-12-06 Possum (16:06) Set 2
Extended hihat intro, during which the band repeats "Wait" over and over for 5:30, and then play Simpson's language. Fish asks the crowd, "Can I hear you say yes? Can I...Boner?" At 8:53 they return to Possum, teasing "Wait," and engaging in the "stop and start" style of improv, and trey teases "Buried Alive." Version finishes with a "Turning Japanese" tease.
