Holy guacamole, the Bowie from this show isn't even ON the Bowie Jamming Chart? A short version to be fair, and from a well-enough regarded show (due to the Bionic Llama) so I assume that it was intentionally left off due to personal taste, but wow! The Bowie from this show is extremely well...

(Published in the second edition of The Phish Companion...) This was my first show. Reviewing it nine years and 53 shows later is pretty interesting on many levels. I got all geeked out for the show in funky clothes and a stupid Phish hat. Times...

1994 is just a fabulous year. This isn't a particularly standout show for 1994, but it is still very well played with lots of energy and charisma, as well as great set flow and a great guest appearance. The first set is is exactly like I described the show as a whole, high-energy,...

The ticket for this show was $8. There were maybe 800 people there. Bela Fleck hung out with us in the parking lot before the show, as did Mike. This show is sick. I didn't get a good recording of it...and I'd love to hear this released via board. The highlight was the banjo duel between Bela and...

Its all been said above already, but wowowowow what a show! What a turn around from the show before. The whole thing is top-notch and Bela Fleck does an awesome job with them. First set has great flow and sounds better and better as it continues. Guyute sounds great and boy do they really nail...

Reba has a short DEG tease when it starts back into the peak.
1994-10-18 by careful_w_that_axe_Miller 2
Solid 4/5, 80/100, 800/1000; with a guest, to be there must have been awesome. Opening with SIMPLE and MFMF they were off time, did not seem to be synchronized, pretty slow start had me asking, "are they wasted?". Things pick up with IDK, page coming out strong and pulls them together for vocal...

A palpable boost in energy from the previous show, this to me is the first great show of the tour. I love the Simple MFMF I Didn’t Know opening sequence. Moving through Poor Heart, we come to Stash and the band opens this one up. It’s an energetic and somewhat exploratory version. Tela...

Who plays harmonica toward the beginning of Llama?
1994-10-18 by Split_Open_My_Face 1
This show is a hidden gem amongst some great shows all throughout '94. The band was on fire from note one, especially the opening trio of Simple>MFMF>IDK. A brief country tinged stop in Poor Heart, followed by a well played, but fairly straightforward Stash. The dip into Gamehendge was welcome,...

Notable Jam Chart Performances

Individual jam chart entries from this venue:

1994-10-18 • Scent of a Mule (10:31) Set 2 Noteworthy
Bela Fleck on banjo, with Bela and Page playing along together before the full band kicks into a low key jam.
1994-10-18 • David Bowie (13:42) Set 2 Noteworthy
Fantastic, multi-faceted version. Dissonance and Tension: check. Tempo and rhythmic shifts: check. But this one also has beautiful, upbeat jamming (aka major mode).
1994-10-18 • Reba (17:34) Set 2 Noteworthy
A huge "Reba" remarkable in that the band departs a really pointed and direct groove to enter a passag of marked space, noted, as some, for sharing similar qualities of "Eyes of the World." Complete with "Dave's Energy Guide" teasing, an experimental, probing version which again pushes against traditional form and convention.
1994-10-18 • Llama (10:25) Set 2 Noteworthy
It's like a "Mule Duel" between Page and Trey, except this is a "Llama Duel" between Bela Fleck, Page and Trey. The duel starts with acoustic instruments before switching to electric. Incredible, must-hear version. Sbd available on FTA - Bonnaroo Pt. 1.
1994-10-18 • Stash (10:47) Set 1
Excellent version with a nice movement beyond "Stash" including moments of that Fall '94 spacious sound.
1994-10-18 • It's Ice (8:55) Set 1
Nice rocking full band jam.
