Now COMPLETELY REMASTERED.

Never-before-published Live Phish footage released on 22nd Anniversary of concert by concert’s promoter. David Caputo, of Positronic Design, The SEO Company, was a student at UMass and publisher of The Weekly News when he promoted the first ever Headlining Show for Phish at the UMass Student Union Ballroom in Amherst, Massachusetts. The show was sold out, and then some. The room was packed and the excitement was electric. Widespread Panic and Gene Matthews opened up. A fantastic time was had by all.
Set List:
Set 1: Possum, Bathtub Gin, Divided Sky > The Sloth, Bouncing Around the Room, You Enjoy Myself[1], Golgi Apparatus
Set 2: Reba, The Oh Kee Pa Ceremony > AC/DC Bag, The Squirming Coil, Harry Hood, Carolina
Encore: Mike’s Song[2] > I Am Hydrogen > Weekapaug Groove[3]
[1] The Ocean teases in vocal jam.
[2] Started as David Bowie.
[3] Weekapaug cut off by tape end

Special thanks to Clinton Vadnais for his fine remastering work.

Well, by now you have either seen the Charlie Sheen 20/20 Interview or heard the best lines quoted and used as stand-up comedian bait. Or you’ve heard about the interview from your friends and/or co-workers. Or all of the above. The fact is, like Britney Spears getting her head shaved, or Tom Cruise’s couch-jumping, the Freak Show has pulled into town and everyone’s slowing down to rubberneck at the scene of the horrible, ghastly, “I can’t look, but I can’t not look!” accident of another celebrity gone brittle under the spotlights.

Poor Charlie Sheen. He’s hooked on a drug he calls “Charlie Sheen” and he can’t get free of that, no matter what he does. Trashing hotel rooms doesn’t seem to help. Poly-relationships, alleged sobriety, and a sudden belief-in-self that makes Scientology sound plausible
