Review by Holloway

Holloway My first show. I was 14 years old. I had no idea how important that show would be for me now that I have seen these guys close to 100 times. I told my parents I was staying at my buddy Brad Shafer's house after I played a Junior Varsity Hockey Game. Well instead of going to the game, or Brad's, I went to see Phish. (I was suspended two games, and grounded 2 weeks.) I had a few tapes, and albums, I think Junta, Lawnboy, Rift and Hoist. Seeing this show was unreal. Opened with Mound! Still, to date, my only Mound. I was also graced with an Axilla(Part II)! Now you must realize, I left the show having no idea what I had seen. I was 14! I remember thinking, "I wish they played Fee." well, now I leave shows thinking, "it be cool to hear a "mound" or "Axilla II". I wonder if these songs will ever be played in the same show again. I know Axilla I and II are quite similar, but I can only imagine the feeling I'd have hearing those lyrics. This Venue has shut down since, it was demolished and will soon reopen as the new civic and convention centers. Pretty epic place, The Rolling Stones did a show there and The Grateful Dead had a few run's as well. Cool to be a part of that history. Anyway, I love this site. My buddy recommended it having scanned through my old ticket stubs. If any one has a good recording of this specific show, I'd love to hear it, I had it on tape like 15 years ago.
