I was at the December show in Dayton and it was UNBELEIVABLE!! Such a genuine show, I was so glad to see it in the archives, I`ll be downloading here shortly!!

When my friend and I walked down the aisle of the Ervin J Nutter Center to the floor where our seats were, you can imagine our consternation when our seats were not there. Instead, the taper`s section was there and filling up rapidly. The usher looked nervous and told us to wait in the back and disappeared. Our group began to grow. We all exchanged confused looks and shrugged our shoulders. Finally, as the beginning of the show approached, an usher told our group to follow them. We started walking back up towards the top section. Oh man, we were thinking, we were supposed to be on the floor! Our line filed around a side section and back down to the floor. There were 2 rows of folding chairs right in front of the sound board just for our group! And then the show started. Holy flurking schnit! I can`t imagine a better show for that to happen! We were at the Palace the night before and this blew it away! From the beginning to the end my friend and I rocked out. So did everyone else around us. The vibe was amazing - both the band and the crowd. Shows like this are the reason I have seen this band over 40 times. My friends that didn`t make it to the show got real sick of hearing about how awesome it was! Take a listen.

This is a classic example of a funky 97 show. I could sit around and dream of a perfect setlist, or I could just listen to these. Jesus Left Chicago is mesmerizing, Page is ON. This show glorifies every band member exacly how all adoring PHiSH fans see them, "as if their heros can do no wrong".

i have only the first set, but, DAMN, what a set..............

Keeping the small show intimacy feel they created in Europe, this one is something special. This show has the boys doing what I love best: listening to each other. They are so in sync it`s scary. At one point during the stellar Theme, Trey and Mike are playing the same exact ascending notes...in a free-form jam! It`s as if they had telepathy. So nice to hear in tune harmonies and Trey hitting all the right notes...I miss the good old days.
I love the phat sound of this board. Mike is nice and loud in the mix. My only regret is that they didn`t go back into AC/DC BAG out of Psycho Killer. That would have been too killer. Get this!

I must say that this show is quite mind boggling, i am glad that i picked this to be my first livephish.com download, it was worth the 9.95! and dude AC/DC Bag is amazing

This show is killer......The Dayton Jam>Slave is incredible. This download is a must have!! Thank You Phish!! I hope you release some more `96-`97 shows soon........peace..............Derek

I will go on record and say I will put this show up against any as the greatest show Phish I have seen. Top to bottom the boys were smokin on this night - to me, this was the height of Phish `phunk` phase. The jams are very tight, everyone was on the same page, whether is was breaking out Psycho Killer or Boogie On... jamming out of AC/DC Bag, Tube, or Wolfman`s... stretching and putting everything they have into Theme, Slave, Reba, or Possum... they were off the hook on this night. I`ve seen a good amount of shows and there is not one that is as good as this. Consider this: this is the only show that I never looked at the stage once after they played their first note of each set. The music was so tight, so powerful, so wonderful that there was no need to even know they were up there. The energy of this show was almost too much!
