Austin City Limits

Looking for the video of the Austin City Limits performance that was on pbs or some other cable station like pbs

I once found this attached to another Phish show, I think a Germany show, but it was attached at the end of the Germany performance and the torrent never made it past 75%

This little performance holds a special place in my Phish heart b/c I learned how to play my first phish tune (Limb x Limb) on the guitar from watching this.

Have been looking to view it again to bring me back to the good ole days, any help is greatly appreciated. Have a fine day OKP

Regards,

OlfactoryHue aka Steve

I have the Phish performance.

It’s on my home computer though.
I can figure something out and get it to you tonight if you’d like?
I’m at work.
Maybe through sendspace?

Let me know.

that would be spectacular, thanks again for helping out in my search

Sendspace won’t work, it’s got to be smaller then 300mb. >:(

Can anyone help Olfactoryhue out?

I know I got it from someone on here, but don’t remember who or where.

Any help?

thanks for the effort gamecat, i tried traders den, they have it attached to a show from germany 2-20-97 i think, but the file is about 6.5 gb’s and i’ve tried to d/l it before with dismall results, either the speed of the d/l is so slow it’ll take a year to finish or it just gets stuck b/c of lack of seeders

any help is appreciated

I would like to get this show as well. I have a horrible VHS version

you can download just the file you need from TTD if you use azureus or utorrent.
a

hmm, will have to look into this. I think the problem I was having was trying to decifer what file was the ACL show, i’ll try again and report back

okay, we’ll there are no seeders so thats problem number 1. problem number 2. is that i can’t figure out which file is the austin city limits file, I figure it’s this one (VIDEO_TS\DISC 2\VTS_01_3.VOB) but am not certain. here is a list of all the files in the torrent. I actually don’t mind having the other show too if somebody could seed again.

Crazy, when i Google “phish austin city limits torrent” this very thread comes up as the number 8 hit, not a very good sign for me to find this. Maybe another torrent site instead of traders den?

damn i didn’t think i’d have as much trouble as i have been.

so it doesn’t seem like im able to get a d/l of this, if anybody see’s this being seeded if they could please post in here it would be appreciated

“don’t let the sun go down on me”

you all have failed me

anybody got this bad boy?

I think I have this on DVD.

What is the date?

lets see, sometime in 2000

07-17-00 Sixth Floor of Communications Building B - University of Texas, Austin, TX

First Tube*, My Soul, Limb by Limb, Horn, Heavy Things, Back on the Train**, Beauty of My Dreams+, Gotta Jibboo, Piper***, Down with Disease, The Inlaw Josie Wales^, Driver, When the Circus Comes^^, Twist, Sleep#, Chalkdust Torture, Wading in the Velvet Sea, Possum##, Character Zero###, First Tube (2:30)

Taped for the “Austin City Limits” show, produced by PBS station KLRU. Show time was approximately Noon to 2:00 p.m. Attendance was approximately 400-450. *Trey was getting strange feedback and crackling noises; he said that they would play the song again at the end of the set. **Before “Back on the Train,” the technical problem was fixed by “Bill Brown,” as annouced by Trey. +Messed up first time around; then quickly re-started. ***After “Piper,” fans were yelling many requests for such songs as “Mound” and “Esther” (possibly “Destiny”). Trey responded by saying that people always call for such songs, and “it’s not that we don’t want to play it, but we just forgot how…we want to as much as you.” He also said that they came to see Bela Fleck for Austin City Limits in 1993 and pointed out where they sat. Trey went on to say that they don’t usually play with a pre-written setlist, but they were doing so on this day. However, he said they were enjoying blowing off steam, so they were going to vary from their setlist. Thus, they played “Disease.” Trey mentioned that this song was named by Page, and that Page let him name “Cars Trucks Buses.” Trey also mentioned how you probably have to live in New Jersey (and drive the Turnpike there) to understand the title of that song. ^^Trey introduced the song as a Los Lobos tune and dedicated it to them. #Trey referred to “Sleep” as a song they do not play very often. ##Played due to overwhelming crowd request. ###Trey introduced this song by mentioning it was played at Fish’s request.

Hi Hue,
