PHISH, FRIDAY 06/09/1995
RED ROCKS AMPHITHEATRE
Morrison, CO
Soundcheck: Acoustic Army (x2), Jam, Taste, Cry Baby Cry

SET 1:

My Friend, My Friend: Standard.

Divided Sky: One of the best Phish songs at one of the best venues. Good stuff!

Strange Design: Standard. >

The Oh Kee Pa Ceremony: Standard. >

AC/DC Bag: Standard. >

Theme From the Bottom: Standard.

Taste: Standard.

Sparkle: Standard. >

Run Like an Antelope: Solid for sure and the perfect way to end the set. Interesting that this version is peak less and takes a backdoor path to the Rye Rocco section.

SET 2:

Split Open and Melt: Gnarly way to open the second set! This tune has been played 342 times. It has opened the second set 11 times (none in 3.0). This one is a bit herky jerky to me. The signal that begins the run to the finale at 11:46 gets a big cheer. The finale is strong for sure.

The Wedge: Standard.

Scent of a Mule: Standard.

Cavern: Standard. >

David Bowie: Fairly average for this era. But stick this in the 97 and forward era and it would surely be considered a good or great version.

Acoustic Army: Standard.

Sweet Adeline: Standard.

Slave to the Traffic Light: Pretty solid offering, Trey gives the ending a good run.

ENCORE:

The Squirming Coil: Fantastic! Page has a gorgeous 4 minute solo. Wonderful encore!

Summary: Solid show. Nothing crazy. Melt was cool. 3.5/5.

Replay Value: Split Open and Melt

Part of the soundcheck's jam consisted of 25 or 6 to 4.
