“Reba” 6.13.94 II Kansas City, KS
1994 and “Reba,” a match made in heaven. Here is another stellar version.

“Ghost” 8.7.98 I, Raleigh, NC

“Piper” 8.8.98 II, Columbia, MD
As Phish came back from Europe, after dropping Prague’s 7/6/98 version, “Piper” continued to expand.

“Tweezer” 11.3.96 II, Gainesville, FL
A groovy and percussive version with Karl Perazzo; two shows after “Remain In Light” you can already hear the influence of the album’s style.

“YEM -> Izabella” 7.26.97 II, Austin, TX
Everyone knows “Tweezabella,” but do you know her sister “YEMabella?”

“Stash” 11.13.97 II, Las Vegas, NV
Phish dropped this mammoth “Stash” on the first night of Fall ’97. Funk, what?

WHat up BB’ers its been a long while!!
good to see some good ol names
keep it bane
i love getting lifted at shows. i remember virtually every detail from all shows except some of summer ’96. otherwise, i know how to roll and what works for me. getting lifted at shows works.
AC x caramels + sweet tarts + taint splasher / pre-rolls – (wet wipes) = 😯
and if they stopped jamming altogether, i’d be able to focus on Arcade Fire tour. Keep the car running…

“I think this is it. We’re going to hear gamehenge.”
so how would someone secure an AC 3-day pass now?
I grabbed two tickets for Worcester Friday night because I thought that if Thursday night sold out before I could grab one that at least I could trade. The seats aren’t even that great but at least they’re center stage. Ended up pulling a section 102 for Thursday night over the phone. Welp, if anyone wants to get second night at Worcester I’ve got an extra. 🙂
Phish + lifted = choice jams. Phish is the best. @lumpyhead See you in Woosta TMWSIY.
