SET 1: Beauty of My Dreams: Standard.

Wolfman's Brother: Super sick funk jam until Trey latches onto a theme that takes them to new heights. Absolutely brilliant – this version is an all timer. >

Maze: This gets WAY down and dirty in the middle of Trey’s solo. Very dissonant – his guitar is growling, super cool tone!! Lot’s of delay effects in there too. Big, killer peak. All timer version for sure.

Water in the Sky: Standard.

Bathtub Gin: Really cool yet brief interplay between Page and Trey and that it shifts for an extended sort of Fish and Trey dominated duo of sorts. Very fun. By the 13 minute mark things have gotten way, way out there with heavy Page effects. Like Maze, this one is pretty dissonant. Around the 14 and a half minute mark Trey reels this one and is soloing beautifully. Gorgeous lines. By about the 19 minute mark Page and Trey team up for some great interplay. Shortly after they start messing around with the original theme and then slowly wind this one down. Sort of. They segue this nicely into… ->

Makisupa Policeman: Breakfast at the Fog, lemon drops and some nugs. Great effects from Trey in here. Very ominous. With about a minute and half left Trey lends a bit of a heavy metal edge to this one, pretty cool. That doesn’t last but 20 seconds or so. ->

AC/DC Bag: They take this one higher and higher and higher, and then they don’t actually play the peak. Holy blue balls Batman going into the break, lol! This was the last time that Bag has closed out the first set and before this show it hadn’t been done since 5.20.94. Here are the other times: 3/22/1988, 6/1/1990, 4/5/1994, 4/18/1994. Very, very rare placement.

SET 2: Chalk Dust Torture: Bob Gullotti ! Jam gets very chill in the late 9’s. I LOVE the space they work themselves into starting around 14 minutes, Trey’s tone is amazing. This goes on for about a minute and then 15 seconds later Trey guides them deftly into… ->

Taste: Sorry, but this just isn’t a good version. It becomes a bit discombobulated towards the end, they abandon the notion of the traditional peak and instead work towards this segue… ->

Ya Mar: Gullotti just SLAMMING hit kit in the intro. Super loud. Leo and the drummers eventually transitions into a cool drum jam -> Drums ->

Ghost: The dual drum attack here makes for a unique intro. If you love ambient, deep space backed by Trey’s loops, this is the Ghost for you. Would have to be in the right headspace to appreciate it >

Character Zero: Standard, crowd loves it!

ENCORE: Theme From the Bottom – Standard.

Replay Value: Wolfman's Brother, Maze, Bathtub Gin, Makisupa Policeman, AC/DC Bag, Chalk Dust Torture

Summary: Wolfman’s and Maze are all timers. I feel like Gin is too. I think it may get overlooked or underrated as it doesn’t have a big peak that many of the all time greats have? But the total body of work is very impressive and deserving of recognition. It’s a yellow jamchart version so maybe I am overthinking this, lol. This is a really interesting show. First set > Second set. Phish.net has it at 4.336/5 (125 ratings) – seems dead on to me.
