Phish - Chicago '94 (2012)




6/18/94 UIC Pavilion, University Of Illinois, Chicago, IL + Soundcheck

SET 1: Wilson > Rift, AC/DC Bag > Maze, The Mango Song > Down with Disease, It's Ice, Dog Faced Boy, Divided Sky, Sample in a Jar

SET 2: Peaches en Regalia > David Bowie -> Mind Left Body Jam -> David Bowie, Horn > McGrupp and the Watchful Hosemasters > Tweezer > Lifeboy > You Enjoy Myself[1], Chalk Dust Torture

ENCORE: Bouncing Around the Room > Tweezer Reprise

Notes:
[1] Monty Python "Spam" vocal jam.
The Mind Left Body Jam's melodic theme (like the MLB theme from Grateful Dead jams) bears a striking resemblance to Marvin Gaye's and Tammi Terrell's You're All I Need To Get By. Bowie (after the MLB Jam) included Three Blind Mice, Dave's Energy Guide, Voodoo Child, and Purple Haze teases. YEM included Frankenstein and How Many More Times teases, as well as a Spam Song vocal jam with a We're Off to See the Wizard quote ("Oz" was changed to "Spam"). The vocal jam also contained a Point Me in the Direction of Albuquerque quote. Chalk Dust subsequently contained a full band tease of How Many More Times.

11/25/94 UIC Pavilion, University Of Illinois, Chicago, IL + Soundcheck

SET 1: Llama, Guelah Papyrus, Reba, Bouncing Around the Room, Split Open and Melt, Esther > Julius, Golgi Apparatus

SET 2: Also Sprach Zarathustra > Mike's Song -> Simple > Harpua[1] > Weekapaug Groove -> The Mango Song > Purple Rain > Hold Your Head Up, Run Like an Antelope

ENCORE: Good Times Bad Times

Notes:
[1] Narration concerned happy green love beams and angry red hate beams.
This Thanksgiving Harpua included the first-ever Glowstick War, as Trey narrated a story involving happy green love beams and angry red hate beams. In the soundcheck, the jam contained Golgi quotes and the Sweet Adeline was Trey only.

  1. Very nice. Somehow this was erased from my HD without backup. Thanks, Jooge.

    Jooge, if you get a chance, please ping me. It is not related to a request, but rather something with which you may need to deal on your end. Thanks again, my friend.

    1. Oh, and 6/18/94 was my first show at the tender age of 11. I had no idea what I had just witnessed, but something made perfect sense about the night; it was pure magic. Many years and many shows later, I am just as satisfied as that night coming off the "Run, OJ, Run" show the night before.

      I do have a digital copy of this somewhere, likely more, but having it here where I can download it to one of my Mega accounts makes it that much easier. So thanks again, and please get in touch when you have a chance.
