My second show (first was Vernon Downs a couple months earlier). 5 of us squeezed in my friend’s two door Blazer for our short trip across 90. The upper tier wasn’t all that packed so we had plenty of room. Great song selection all around but whenever I look over the setlist I get a dark and lonely feeling. It isn’t near the best show I’ve seen but we had a great time and it was enough to hold us over until the MSG shows to close out the year.

Set 2: Drowned -> Roses Are Free[1] -> Big Black Furry Creature from Mars > Ghost -> Down with Disease -> Johnny B. Goode

[1] Phish debut.
Teases:
· Electric Funeral tease in Big Black Furry Creature from Mars
Notes: This show marked the Phish debut of Roses Are Free. BBFCFM (first since August 6, 1996, or 118 shows) featured Electric Funeral teases. Footage from this show appeared in the film Bittersweet Motel.
1998-12-28. My first trip to MSG. Was only able to attend the first two nights but they will forever be etched in my memory. While the 29th is easily one of the best shows I’ve seen the Stash from the opening night absolutely smokes! The roar from the crowd at the end still sends shivers up my spine. The rest of the first set was greatin attendance but nothing really sticks out on the tapes. The second set is a different story though and is well worth listening to.
I just threw in the first Bend, OR show from 7/21/15. Something’s really drawing me to listen to the 2015 shows, and 2016 so far too.
Could be that I’ve taken a good break from Phish and I’m re-energized to listen to them again. Or it could be that it’s an exciting time … most likely it’s the idea that they’re gonna record, that usually gets me pumped. I like the new songs for the most part too.
Anyway my current agenda includes listening to lots of recent shows, we’ll see how long it lasts. No Man’s Land debut’s on.
^I’m giving that show my first listen, and I’m pretty into it. I started w/second set, and this morning just cranked into set one. Sounds awesome. The Haley’s Comet vocals are niiiice. Trey totally ripcords that shit into Undermind though, lol.
Yesterday the classic rock/oldies type radio station at work was my choice, but it was still torturous. It just kept playin shit like “Bad Medicine” by Bon Jovi, a bunch of Journey, I dunno. This is a welcome contrast, is what I’m tryin to say.
Also, last night I listened to some of I think 8/08/15, and its AUD-ness was f’n glorious coming thru this little wireless speaker I have that oozes bass. It really relayed that deeeeeep bigass speaker experience you get at the show, it was pretty sweet. I’ll be dialing that up again.
As per the GMOKP thread, I’m jumping right into listening to some ripping '94 PH.
When searching for a show to listen to, I was reminded of my old db.etree account where I had my show collection all listed. Logged in and it still works! I wrote little comments on a lot of the shows to help me remember tunes I liked from each one. Helped a lot and now I need to update it, which will take some time, but on with the show…
My choice for this rip session is 11/26/94. My memory (errr… comment section…) tells me this Bowie rips and I think I vaguely remember a vac solo from Fishman in this one maybe…?
I’ve never heard that one, I’m downloading it now.
Currently listening to Magnaball day one, for the first time. I wanted to go to this fest pretty fer serious, didn’t happen. Set sounds really solid so far,
Simple
The Dogs
TMWSIY>Alvenu Malkenu>TMWSIY
Free
But now they’re gonna do fucking happy birthday to you according to the setlist
Oh! Is this where they don’t play “Eliza”? Shit, this is my second time hearing this, cuz I remember this when it went down.
Yes. That 2nd set felt like a mini marathon. When Waste fired up, I took a deep breath and it felt like I had been holding it since the set started. Looked over at the lady next to me and said, “Wow, we needed a breather!” and she heartily agreed. What a great weekend. TAKE ME BACK!
I’ll finish Magnaball some time later when I’m home. I’m at work, so I’m dialing this show in from your ^handy link… Trey just finished with the mic stand routine and is now shredding the end of MyF.
I think this is the final Campus Club show. I’m listening thru for the second time in a row, it’s just so damn good. Wish I had the sound check.
The recording I have is like, a f*cking sweet sweet dream. A dream with ice cream and sex and love too, and probably extra days off. It’s a soundboard, everything is clear and clean basically. Yet you hear the audience plenty. It’s like a live album. With a couple piercing moments of feedback.
Set one especially is out of control great. Set two is really great too, I mean the whole thing is silly. Some best-ever-contender caliber servings of all of these songs, and in pristine sound. Mike is loud and dominant. Trey is fast and just tearing the shit out of everything. Page is on point and in the mix plenty, and Fish too - just raging it. Plus he plays both the bagpipes and the vacuum. Plus Mike breaks out the accordian and the wig. Not to mention it’s Nectar tour, and they perform a ton of new material that would end up on Rift… some slight differences and a definite newness to those songs.
It’s suddenly my favorite Phish thing again. It’s like the thing that should shut up any Phish hater. It’s the show you put in to turn up loud when you just really need just that certain somethin. It’s probably the greatest concert.
It could just be a regular concert though, might not be any big deal.
