what a great first show to see Phish. I had moved away from the Philly area and was home visiting my family and my brother suprised me with a ticket to the show. I had been listening to Phish for about 3 years, but never got to a show before this one. It was incredable seeing these guys live...

My first show. I was 14 years old. I had no idea how important that show would be for me now that I have seen these guys close to 100 times. I told my parents I was staying at my buddy Brad Shafer's house after I played a Junior Varsity Hockey Game. Well instead of going to the game, or...

This Weekapaug features Phish at their improvisational best. Typical high power Weekapaug jam->Suzy Greenberg-esque style of jam->creepy noodly jam->vocal jamming->machine-gun hose->circusy video-game type jam->monstrous Little Drummer boy jam->return to Weekapaug. They hit so much in this...

This is a seriously great show. The Reba they play is OFF the HOOK. It rages... just when you think the band is going to hit that final chord to end the tune, they go into 8 more bars of bandwide hose. Amazing. Great version of It's Ice here too, very tight. Straight into a sexy Antelope. Good...

This was my 2nd show, and my group were the first in line at the box office the morning of the ticket sale (got there at like 8pm the night before). We got front row center. This may be my favorite Weekapaug I've ever heard -- demented winter holiday jam. Mike's Song featured Trey running...

Sorry for posting a 2nd review, but I recently listened to this show for the first time since seeing it live 21 years ago and want to edit or refute my initial review. Allow me to "wax nostalgic" and reflect a bit, if you will... This was a pivotal year for the band, and in particular this was...

My first show. My younger brother got us the tickets. It was Christmas break; I was 'home' from UVM for The Holiday. My first-ever listen was Junta's 'Contact', in the Summer of '89 and I was intrigued to say the least. It was my friend TJ who played it on cassette in his mother's...

Home from college, seeing the show with my crew & running into a few old heads from HS (yeah prep) at the Convention Center show. What a gas, I was last at this venue w/ my parents as a young kid for the Bicentenial Celebration - my Dad and I met Jessie Jackson in the men's room, but I heavily...

Well, I missed the 20year anniversary of my 1st show last year. I did not have a moment I guess to reflect on it. I was nearly 18, my sister was a senior at nearby University of Delaware and my cousin a freshmen at Penn. I had been listening to some studio stuff via my cousin but man I was...

This is one of my favorite shows and it features one of the best Mike's Grooves you will ever hear. I remember reading in the Pharmer's Almanac about this guy who was some mega tape collector and he listed this show as his all time favorite show along with Mike's Groove being his favorite Phish...

Notable Jam Chart Performances

Individual jam chart entries from this venue:

A wacky, semi-evil version moves quickly beyond the standard, beginning with a dark Page-led section, followed by a Fish-led vocal jam. After more exploratory play, the band breaks into a jam on "The Little Drummer Boy," before returning to "Weekapaug" to wrap up.
