Notes: This was the first show of The Clifford Ball festival. Bathtub Gin contained a brief DEG tease from Trey. Waste through Strange Design were performed on the acoustic mini-stage. Disease was unfinished. The second set was preceded by a Mary Had a Little Lamb tease. The jam at the end of Harry Hood accompanied a fireworks display. The band took to the back of a flatbed truck at around 3:30 in the morning and drove through the crowd. The performance was one long open-ended jam.
This show was part of the "1996 Summer U.S. Tour."

I remember being on A LOT of LSD for night one, and it was PERFECT! Laughing waiting for them to start, People growing like plants once they came on and broke into Chalkdust, Bouncing through the crowd during Makisupa. Great show, Great weekend!
