Snippet

Another “Limb by Limb”

7-15-98
Portland Meadows
Portland, Oregon

11:08 - 11:38

Ah, good!! I had forgotten about that show lately. I think the second set is still amazingly atypical of its period and good on its own.

I both agree and concur with many opf these suggestions. Add to that.

Gin - 7.20.98 (LP17) at 13:58 (after some awesome jamming already) They drop into this sick funk jam that cooks for another 8 or so minutes.

Possum - -11-20-98 at 6:30 Trey starts playing this really sweet ascending chromatic rift that just keeps building and building.

YEM - 02.26.03 at 19:30 The sweetest hand over to the bass and drums segment ever.

The segue from Bowie to Possum on 12.29.97 - First time that made me sit up and look stunned, then rush over to the CD player, rewind and make sure I hadn’t just imagined it.

2-26-97 Carini
3:04-4:00 (end of song)
What a fun band.

/\ Not to nitpick, but the Gin on LivePhish 17 is from 7/29/98.

True, although the “Gin” from 7/20/98 is no slouch itself. It’s actually quite good.

2 show opening, show-stopping “Gin’s” within 9 days of each other!

Agreed!! Neil holdin’ it down on '98, ya’ll.

Phish

Saturday, October 31st, 1998

Thomas and Mack Center

Las Vegas, Nevada, United States of America

Set II: “Sweet Jane”

5:55 - 6:35

What an enthralling jam!

The Funk part of Mike’s just before Catapult, between the Catapult and Kung and between Kung and IDK at Memphis 99!

^oh yeah. Deep stuff right there.

another snippet:

Character Zero Halloween ‘96–from about 4:45-5:15. I’ve loved this version since the first time I heard it. Probably my favorite if I had to pick, but this specific segment is particularly rippin’. Mike’s bass line at about 4:50 is spectacular, and Trey is absolutely shredding.

Also Lp17- Harry Hood 9:17 -> 9:46 ONE NOTE! 29 seconds!

^ Excellent choice for a “snippet.” It’s all the mysteries of Phish in 29 seconds. I would think that Trey had that “look” on his face for the full 29 seconds. He has described his playing as listening to the sounds all around him. When I saw him live and up close I thought that he must be listening to sounds from his distant home planet that only he can hear. I sure do like those sounds though.

yeah, that note is long…NOT!!!
why dont you try a nearly 3 MINUTE LONG NOTE!

Harry Hood 11-16-1996 Omaha, NE (10:43 > 13:36) :o :o :o :o

psyche!

^^ Thanks for bringing this up and providing the song, A. I had never heard this before. That is a REALLY long note. The crowd keeps going nuts and the jam keeps going up and up and Trey keeps holding the note.

I just read on phish.net that he was dancing around the whole time he was holding the note. Badass. I fucking love Phish, I really don’t say that often enough.

yeah, this show circulates in video.
he’s rocking the fist pump the whole time!

Wow, what a Hood!

Thanks Augustus.

I love how crazy Fish is going off during the note.

Well, you showed me, didn’t you.

Seriously though, thanks for the download.

“Drowned”
6-29-00 I

8:40 - 9:00

These 20 seconds exemplify one of the reasons I dearly love Phish as a band. You can CLEARLY tell that they gradually leave the “Drowned” theme and go into a nice groove in those 20 seconds. It’s evident by the audience reaction as well.
This “Drowned” is in my top-3 favorites, and the segue into “Rock and Roll” might be my favorite Phish segue ever. Might be.
