PHISH: 5/8/93 Durham, NH
essay by Phish Archivist Kevin Shapiro (6/1/04)

Phish's May 8, 1993 concert in Durham, New Hampshire capped a seventy-show tour
supporting the band's fourth studio album, Rift. The tour began February 3rd and
led south from Maine (including the first Florida shows), up through Colorado and
along the West Coast and eventually across the Midwest where the band finally
reached New Hampshire via Canada. They played mostly theaters and college
gymnasiums along with a few clubs and ballrooms. By now, Phish consistently sold
out a majority of their shows as word of their musical skill and adventure spread
quickly through tapers, word of mouth and an increasing Internet presence. 

In addition to increasing popularity and a larger footprint travel-wise, the tour
brought equipment changes as well. Trey integrated an acoustic guitar to his setup
for the tour, adding acoustic introductions and codas to classic Phish tunes like
Fluffhead and Rift compositions like My Friend, My Friend. Fish debuted a
Madonna-style washboard (with metal breasts) along with his drums and "traditional"
vacuum. The most significant gear change was Page adding a grand piano, which he
still plays. The piano cuts through with a natural sound that helped inform the
band's increasingly democratic, textural jamming style. The band was becoming
increasingly adept at weaving in and out of their growing repertoire, playing
songs within songs and turning on a dime while further extending jams and debuting
a variety of new original songs and lots of covers. During the tour, Phish performed
Trey's entire "Gamehendge" saga for the first time in nearly two years in
Sacramento, played Mike's Song throughout an entire set in Atlanta and took a
ten-minute silent pause in the midst of a single version of Big Black Furry Creature
From Mars in Ann Arbor. Carefully planned set lists were often abandoned in the
early part of the show. It was clear Phish enjoyed accelerating the mental joust
among themselves, and between band and audience, to a higher level. To better set
the stage for their exponential musical growth the band also employed increased
moving lights and improved sound reinforcement. The full package that tour resulted
in some of Phish's finest and most celebrated performances as well as fa
