(Published in the second edition of The Phish Companion...) October 20, 1994, the morning of my first day of vacation, began with a drive across Alligator Alley, out to the west coast of Florida. Up north to St. Petersburg, the day's destination....

My Phish addiction had reached new heights in 94. I had seen about 20 shows and the crowd had quadrupled in the Northeast in the time since my first show. They went from theaters to MSG in 2 and a half years. I knew they were going to be huge within a year or two. I really wanted to continue...

Set 1 Jim – This is a nice short, frenetic Jim that serves well as a show opener. I really like what Trey does during this with nice complements from Page’s trailing keys. Golden Lady – Nice, groovy Stevie Wonder song. Poor Heart – The juxtaposition next to Golden lady is hilarious. Page fires...

This was my first Phish show (actually second, but the first was at at SunFest in West Palm Beach, FL and they only played one set). I'll admit, the setlist may not look stellar, but this show was extra special to me and my crew. The Mahaffey Theatre in St. Pete, FL, from what I recall, is a...

A notch or two below the previous show, this contains a phenomenal Hood that is a must-listen for anyone who’s a fan of the tune. The Melt > Kung > Melt sandwich in the first set is worth mentioning but as I often feel when Kung interrupts a jam, here I would have preferred Melt without...

Notable Jam Chart Performances

Individual jam chart entries from this venue:

1994-10-20 • Harry Hood (19:48) Set 2 Noteworthy
The first seriously "Type II" "Hood" includes some very experimental jamming. Parts of this exploration are mildly dissonant and very un-"Hood"-like, while other sections are quite spectacular. The "Type I" ending is first rate.
1994-10-20 • Kung (2:00) Set 1
-> in from "SOAM," -> back to "SOAM."
"SOAM" -> "Kung" -> "SOAM." The jam itself is decent, dissonant, and moderately exploratory.
-> in from "Kung" to complete this "SOAM" sandwich.
1994-10-20 • Maze (12:27) Set 2
-> in from "Lengthwise." Page shines for an extended section starting at 3:15 through 5:00, where the jam goes from near silence to a more predictable jam. Fish's driving play keeps things at a breakneck speed. The jam ends with soaring licks from Trey.
