We were in the front of the stage "slam dancing" hippy style so hard during highway to hell that Trey asked us to chill out a bit. I would physically move a group of bodies off to one side of the stage and the wave would sent me back to the other side- the Highway to Hell was insain. We were a bunch of St. Mike's boys venturing on to the UVM campus to let them know how much we liked our Phish shows.

I think this show epitomizes much of 1991: Tight, well played, not very adventuresome. Curtain and Jim are spotless, Reba is average, Poor Heart, Llama, Guelah, yadda yadda yadda. Oh Kee Pa wasn't as sharp, but Suzy definitely has a little spunk. That, and the Chalkdust that opens the second set, are probably the highlights, though. You've got your deconstruction style Bathtub Gin (blech), a yee haw! in Uncle Pen and another yee haw! in Landlady (heh!) as well as warnings about smoking in the venue and people crush in the "mosh" pit. Oh, and a brief Heartbreaker jam in Tweezer. That's all I've got to say; about as 3 stars as it gets.

The AKG 414 source for set 1 is listenable, but doesn’t sound nearly as clean as the unknown audience source for set 2. At any rate, big thanks to Dave, Todd and Arty for unearthing set 1 and the second encore!

The show starts off with a nice run of songs. Curtain>Jim, Sloth and Reba are all well played. The Reba is great! Trey soars on this version. Poor Heart finally comes out of hibernation next! It’s interesting that they debuted it at the Billings Lounge three years earlier. It was reported that they soundchecked it a few nights back in Buffalo, although only Funky Bitch is noted as being played during soundcheck. Llama rips per usual. The wrap up the first half with a decent Oh Kee Pa>Suzy.

A shredtastic Chalk Dust starts off set 2. They follow this up with a solid Gin. Afterwards Page makes an announcement that the security guy said that if the smoke alarm goes off again he’ll have to end the show. One person in particular wasn’t happy about that! lol Trey makes a comment about the people getting squished up front as well. Uncle Pen gets a big ol’ Yee-Haw! from Cactus. Afterwards he says “Well I’ll be damned!” In his best cowboy accent! lol Really nice work from Trey on Landlady. Mike let’s out another Yee-Haw during Landlady as well! lol Fantastic version of Stash with heavy DEG teasing in the jam. Even though Lawn Boy/Rocky Top is a pretty straightforward encore Trey added a little extra mustard to his solos.
Encore #2 features a beefy little Tweezer with a cool Heartbreaker tease. Unfortunately the crew thanks in between Tweezer and Tweezer Rep. is cut from the Relisten app.
