It's sobering and instructive to hear recordings of shows from this era - indeed, through early 1993 - when Phish was simply an altogether different band, with none of the emotional depth of their current material, none of the patience and easy groove mastery of their post-'97 stuff, none of the mid-90s music's epic scale and stylistic depth...weird to hear so many versions of YEM played for comedy, so many monotonic versions of Stash, Page still in many ways an inadequate musician, Trey like he's auditioning for a pretentious version of They Might Be Giants, his sense of perspective in soloing not yet formed...

Nice reminiscence though. Must've been an incredible weekend for fans of the band.
