My friend Aaron and I slept in a field on the outskirts of Trento, and got Trento Stadium early, eagerly awaiting our first show since NYE 95 (after the night before was cancelled due to rain). Trento is beautiful, mountains everywhere!
Phish was sandwiched between a Joe Satriani set and the main act, Carlos Santana. Contrary to the review above, I remember being very disappointed in Phish's playing this night. There were equipment issues, Trey kept missing lyrics and while it's tough to tell from the tapes, Santana fans in front of the stage started throwing things at the band. All of this resulted in a quick 43 minute set. We spoke with the band after the show (they were outside the venues on most of these European stops) and they were equally disappointed in the way the first two nights of the tour had gone. They said they would make it up to us by playing at a bar after the Rome show - unfortunately this never materialized.
