Two Phish Shows For The Ages – Gamehoist and Halloween 1994

I spent the evening downloading two infamous Phish shows from 1994. I have some links to the torrents for those of you who want to download them. Both are darn good quality and classic shows.

The first show is June 26, 1994, commonly referred to as GameHoist, since the entire first set was a full Gamehenge followed by the second set, which was a full runthrough of the album, Hoist, minus Riker’s Mailbox. The entire first set is really a little audio journey, and it’s definitely not your average Phish show. Check out the setlist:

Show Notes: This show is commonly referred to as “Game Hoist.” The first set was the Gamehendge saga, including narration between songs. The second set was the entire Hoist album, save Riker’s Mailbox. This show marked the first performance of The Old Home Place, the first complete Gamehendge since March 22, 1993, the first Yerushalayim Shel Zahav since July 24, 1993 (88 shows) and the first Tube since April 12, 1993 (118 shows). Divided Sky included Wipeout teases.
