welp, i was definitely a noob at this show. My initiation into Phish was the Rift album that my buddy turned me onto. Years later, i bought A Live One when it was released and my girlfriend at the time (who had no idea who Phish was) surprised me with tickets. I was totally impressed with the...
A Tweezer and Scent of a Mule with some unique moments are the musical highlights of this show.
Opening with Makisupa, Trey announces he "woke up at 40 minutes to 5". Keywords sound like "Treybien...Gauge."
The first slow version of Poor Heart is met with a rousing cheer, and I have to...
Had to throw in my tuppence. This Stash is really kind of a killer jam, and the tease is not 007, but ~Secret Agent Man~. Go watch the Repo Man, if ya don't believe me.
While not the overall monster that the 10/11 or 10/21 shows were, this one is definitely worth a listen, if you're in the...
Ah... ten twenty six ninety six. I've said those words a bunch because this was my first show. Today is its twentieth anniversary. And twenty years later, I still love this show so much. It's probably the show I've listened to the most - and maybe I have beer goggles because it was my first time...
in hindsight, maybe this isn't as elite a show as others i attended, but it was still a solid performance nonetheless & quite an enjoyable evening. this might seem like an odd thing to point out, but they really nailed this particular version of "sparkle", holding it together even at breakneck...
First set : REBA!!! sublime Fish work than awesome type II jam. spectacular.
The boys have been on fire the whole tour. This is vintage Phish. mainly because I remember at this time each show being a real happening and reeeeAAL anticipation as to what the heck they would play. I really think...
This was my very first show. I was introduced to this fine ensemble by Todd O' Gara a great phriend indeed. Met a taper in the lot named Elliott Easterly (anyone else here know him?), and exchanged addresses, and I would go on to get all of the shows I attended from him. Makisupa opener and the...
what an amazing show....during theme from the bottom, it seemed like they had laser-lite bubbles floating thru the stadium....by the time they came out with an absolutely smokin version of Fire, I was rollin back and forth over the upper deck guardrail absolutely LOSING MY SHIT!!!!....first time...
This was my first show and being an arena show, the lights remain one of my most vivid memories. I'm exploring this show again via an audience recording available on the Relisten App and Archive.org.
The Julius opener has a nice, toe-tapping bounce courtesy of one J. Fishman. There is a lot of...
Awesome version. Following the standard outro jam, Trey jumps to the mini percussion kit, while Page jams with his keyboard toys including the Moog and B-3. Mike and Page produce some excellent jazzy and funky sounds. -> to "McGrupp."
Vocal and guitar response by Trey, but very different from all the preceding versions. Page picks up Trey's musical theme in his second solo. Mike adds his part with extended chanting before the return to lyrics.
