Review by thelot

thelot A crisp, clean dSBD recording is available for this show. The levels start out a bit low but get bumped up during Sparkle, and from there the quality is stellar—you can even hear the band chatting between songs.

The show kicks off with a decent Bag and follows with a pretty straightforward Fall ’91 setlist. SOAM has a few lyrical flubs early on but recovers nicely with a solid jam. I’m really enjoying how Tube is starting to pop up in setlists again-this one’s a tight little version. Trey dedicates Divided Sky to the spirit of Sun Ra, who had played the Gothic Theatre—a cool nod to the venue’s history.

The second set opens strong with Tweezer. There’s definitely some “Wait!” energy in the freezer with Uncle Ebenezer. A clean version of It’s Ice follows. Chalk Dust delivers a ripping little jam, and Mike and Trey joke that Eliza was written by Ringo—classic banter. Mike’s Groove is well played, with Trey really shining during the Groove jam. Always a treat when Tweezer Reprise caps the set—arena rock energy in a cozy theater.

The encore includes a spirited Love You with extra introductions for Paul, Chris, Peter, and Andrew. Instead of the usual HYHU outro, the band cues up Curtis Mayfield’s Pusherman—just because Fish likes the song. Trey then honors a request for some folks on phish.net-and explains what the phish.net is for those unfamiliar with the internet. They close the night with a sweet little Stash to round out a very satisfying second set.
