Festival Express
With Super Ball IX on our minds, I figured I’d drop one highlight from each of the previous eight festivals to enjoy throughout your Tuesday.
***
“Harry Hood” 8.16.96 III
The Great Went
The first festival “Hood;” a soaring rendition from the third set of The Clifford Ball.

“Wolfman’s > Simple” 8.16.97 II
Two of so many amazing jams at The Great Went.

“Ghost” 8.16.98 II
Lemonwheel
As Summer ’98 came to a close, Phish began weaving in a new style of melodic, ambient jamming—present in this “Ghost”—that would become prevalent throughout the fall. This version is a gorgeous festival highlight that often flies under the radar.

“Tweezer -> Have Mercy” 7.17.99 I
This gooey “Tweezer” provided the sunset soundtrack on the first night at Osewgo.

“After Midnight Reprise” 12.31.99
Sacred Phish ground from the depths of night at Big Cypress.

“46 Days” 8.3.03 II
IT
Post-hiatus abstract psychedelia at its finest.

“AC/DC Bag” 8.14.04 II
One of few impressive musical moments at Coventry.

“You Enjoy Myself” 10.31.09 III
A climactic version from the third set of a West Coast Halloween.
