Comment
[1] First known Phish performance; approximately one minute long.
This show was an Earth Day concert at UVM and took place outside the Bailey Howe Library on the Green. This performance previously circulated with the dates April 15 and April 29, 1986. Trey introduced the band as the “Bob Dylan Band†before they began a jam that led into a short All Blues (the first known Phish performance; it was only about a minute long). Dog Log was dedicated to all of the dogs that were running around, including Marley the Wonder Dog (Trey's dog). Possum included a Help on the Way tease.
This show was an Earth Day Concert at UVM. The setlist is exactly the same as 4/25/86 so one date (or at least one setlist) is incorrect – it’s presumed that the 4/25 date is correct and 4/15 was the result of mislabeled tapes – see 4/25/86 setlist for details. Before AC/DC Bag, Trey introduced his dad (“all the way from NJâ€). This show featured the 1st known performance of All Blues (Miles Davis cover) surrounded by Trey’s banter about The Bob Dylan band. Dog Log was dedicated to all the dogs at the show including “Marley The Wonder Dogâ€. Anarchy was dedicated to Jim Tasse (Jones) who was leaving to play with The Joneses and Sierra at Slade Hall. Possum included a Help On The Way (Grateful Dead) tease. Anarchy was performed three times at this show – first with the usual “Anarchy†lyric, then as “Jim Tasse†and finally as “Nazi Trustees†and “Killer African Beesâ€. Camel Walk was introduced as a disco song (imagine the disco ball). Also, according to Garrett Mead, Paul Paul the Banjo Man played two of his tunes solo: Rutabega Boogie and Life Gets Tedious. According to a recording circulated among fans, Trey’s father, Ernie Anastasio opened for Phish on banjo or ukelele with Trey, performing 2 songs – Rutabega Boogie and Life Gets Tedious. This information does not match Garrett’s recollection of Paul Paul The Banjo Man and is considered legend until confirmed.
This show was an Earth Day Concert at UVM dated 4/25/86 by Burlington Free Press. The setlist is exactly the same as 4/15/86 so one date (or at least one setlist) is incorrect. Del Martin’s tape list calls this 4/29/86 while other setlists including fan sources and Amy Skelton’s list 4/15/86 but those are presumed mislabel/typos and the 4/25/86 date listed in BFP is adopted.
