Ten For Tuesday
Bethel Woods (Michael Mesenbourg)
“Mike’s Song -> Breathe Jam ” 10.25.95 II, St.Paul, MN
A relic from the day when “Mike’s Song” had jams. In this Fall ’95 incarnation, Trey annihilates the opening segment moving to his mini kit as the band moves further and further into experimental territory. Slipping into abstraction, they pass smoothly into an instrumental interpretation of Pink Floyd’s “Breathe.”

“Simple > McGrupp” 10.26.96 II, Charlotte, NC
This is but one of many standout “Simples” along the road of Fall ’96, and served as the centerpiece of Charlotte’s Fall ’96 stop.

“Weekapaug -> Mango Song” 11.25.94 II, Chicago, IL
Concluding our patchwork “Mike’s Groove,” here is the unique segue and song pairing that followed “Harpua” at UIC in Fall ’94.

“My Left Toe -> Whipping Post” 7.25.99 II, Noblesville, IN
In a stunning piece of first-set improvisation, Phish built their abstract Summer ’99 vehicle into a legit take on the Allman’s classic. This jam came out of nowhere at the beginning of the show at Deer Creek, foreshadowing one of Summer ’99’s best outings.

“Tweezer -> Makisupa” 10.22.95 II, Champaign, IL
Another buck-wild, Fall ’95 throwdown to follow up yesterday’s “Tweezer” from the same tour.

“Stash” 12.5.97 II, Cleveland, OH
Behind the dance-party funk of Fall, “Stash” made a huge splash every time it dropped. Here is the second set opener of the consistently underrated show from Cleveland State. Though this version doesn’t stray too far from structure, it absolutely slays from start to finish.

I’ve avoided every Phish show in (nearly) Orange County. Not gonna start.
Damn, both my mum and myself got shut out of BGCC and LB. waiting to hear on one more order…
Cash for your extras, yo!
alf will be at BGCA
Of all the musicians I’ve dug over the years for their chops Trey anastasio is hands down the most annoying. 30 seconds into an interview with that douche and I want to throw my air max 1 through the tv
But I loved that Cincinnati tweezer
Need 2 each night bgcc
Maybe the kid I got UIC floors for will kick me his extras
The concept of singing summer of 89 and creating that shit makes my head spin
#shitsongs
MiA – Leg 2 agenda?
Pffft. Like you’ve never made a ring out of grass blades.
Speaking of which … You kids official yet?
@poop, your first on my list, no worries
Summer of 89 should be reserved for Anastasio family parties . Garbage.
May 27th
Nice. Right before leg 1. Best.
Nothin says romance like a 2 night honeymoon in woosta
haha congrats poop
HA! My partner just hit for Sat&Sun x2 at Bill G (missed on Fri)
Meanwhile I scored two sets of fields for all 3 Dick’s
sure enough. no BGCC.
THE WORST reserved seat in the house for Long Beach, and a lawn for the Zoo. F–k PTBM.
Anybody feel like updating the ticket exchange board for leg 2?
WTF, they give me tickets to the 1st and 3rd night of Dicks, but not the 2nd. Makes sense…
Nice, completely shut out on all 3 PTBMs.
If I don’t get tickets I’m going to spend the Bill Graham run asking people outside the venue where they’re from and punching east coasters in the face.
At least it’ll totally be a cinch getting multiple tickets for each night in the on sale, so I definitely have that going for me… Can’t type that with a straight face
on your 21st birthday also. That sucks……
hey, happy B-day Garret. the big 2-1. all downhill from here
Yeah Palmer, how rude of them! Don’t they know?
Thanks joe! For the well wishes, if not the discouraging words… Haha
I updated the ticket exchange last time. Someone else’s turn.
believe we have extra LBC’s @garretc
Actually had some help too.
If you’ve got an extra $67,000 laying around and wanna spend 22 days flying around the world with Mickey Hart, then this trip is for you:
