Show Notes
- By 1994, Phish was well established as an international touring act and already well known to a growing group of hardcore fans. Amidst a tour packed with highlights - it was this summer that convinced the band to start multi-tracking their live shows - this show was recorded for posterity on 2-track DAT. Lightning rarely strikes twice in the same place but Chicago '94 is an example of just that.
-
Paul Languedoc's stereo soundboard mixes re-mastered by Fred Kevorkian carry the intensity and intricacy of these special shows to listeners' ears eighteen years later. Chicago '94 contains nearly six hours of music performed at both shows for a total of 43 songs, including material from the UIC soundchecks. The shows are presented in a 6-CD box set with new artwork by longtime collaborator and Chicagoan, Jim Pollock.

"Pretty sure this is the first recorded full blown glow stick war! While show was tight. Second set was amazing. Harpy’s story was hilarious!!"

"Amazing show!!! There is a moment during the Split Open and Melt jam where everyone just stopped playing for a moment. It was truly a magical moment, especially if you were there. Of course we have the amazing Harpua including a full blown glow stick war!!! Again, I guess you has to be there."

"Show smokes...period! Security was tight on the floor but I did get some pics from the floor. Had a security guy chase me around the floor twice but took refuge in the tapers section. I always thought it funny that after the show, Harpo studio was about a block away.... Get this one"
