TTFF: Dreaming of Summer
“Mike’s -> Simple” Clifford Ball 8.16.96 II
A historic chunk of Summertime Phish.

“Reba” 8.2.03 Limestone, ME
A daytime, post-hiatus gem.

“Sneakin’ Sally” 8.8.98 Columbia, MD
Quintessential Summer ’98 grooves here.

“Disease -> Free” 6.26.95 I, SPAC, NY
Simply put, one of Phish most superbly executed psychedelic odysseys.

“Chalk Dust Torture” 8.31.12 II, Commerce City, CO
Some of Trey’s most blissful and cathartic playing of Summer ’12.

“Light” SPAC, NY 7.5.13 II
This dense, virtuosic conversation kicked off Summer ’13 in earnest and is now my go-to version of the song.

“Crosseyed and Painless” 7.10.13, Holmdel, NJ
This jam has so much staying power—truly an all-timer.

“Harry Hood” 7.22.97 II, Raleigh, NC
After an intense, power-packed set of Phish, the band encored with this sublime “Harry Hood.”

“Rock and Roll -> Meatstick” 8.5.11, George, WA
A jam—especially in context—that caused ripples throughout the modern Phish universe.

“Ghost” 8.15.98 II, Limestone, ME
The essential nugget of late-Summer ’98 Phish foreshadowed the shift to ambient jamming come the fall. This relatively under-the-radar “Ghost” sneaks into my personal top five.

Which one Thomas the switching instruments April Fools version or the proper version?
love that fast swing of just Billy in these early 70’s Dead jams.
The Jam out of Weather Report into Dark Star had this same feel. Playin reprise/Darkstar prelude.
Love the “Monkey Man” tease in the Moma Dance.
Sent to my JF crew earlier today: Festivus Fitness Challenge. 100 push ups broken up anyway you want per day everyday for the next 30 days. 4/1-4/30/14. Minimum of 3000 push ups in the month leading up to Festivus. Got my hundo in for today. Core strength is important when you’re jammin & funkin into the wee horas.
I’d like to nominate WC Slave as well.

Yup @Jtran, JG’s gotcha back, that’s the one. Under the lens as it is the new Dave’s Picks release.
ahh and Garret too. Just finished the show. Some fantastic stuff in there.
Does the 11/22/97 Mike’s have the ever elusive in 3.0 second jam? Bc this Mikes is the tetons!
Stoney I like your style. Think I’ll queue up Tahweezer for my post work walk. Of course will get mildly powercooked beforehand.

listening to Tahoe Tweezer aswell, minute 20. Open section, it’s about to get Bliss’y. Trey does play some razor hot leads near the end to bring it all back around, but I like the first 20 minutes the best.
