PHISH, FRIDAY 07/14/2000
POLARIS AMPHITHEATER
Columbus, OH

SET 1:

Sample in a Jar: Couldn’t believe they were on stage playing through this. We were super lucky in that we had great seats – basically middle of the pavilion and we were still getting soaked. Those poor people on the lawn. Scary storm and situation. Polaris Death Cloud. We couldn’t hear what Trey was saying after this song ended but on tape you can hear him say they were going to take a 5 minute break (lol) and to Enjoy the Storm (lol, really dude?).

Punch You in the Eye: The storm lyric got cheers. >

Timber (Jerry the Mule) - Good stuff right here, we needed this. Nice and intense.

Gotta Jibboo: Definitely a strong version for Trey, he does rip this one. >

Boogie On Reggae Woman: Standard.

Stash: Standard.

Bouncing Around the Room: Standard.

Foam: Unique version. Trey just strums his way through his solo part. Would recommend just for that unique aspect.

Dog Faced Boy: Standard.

Farmhouse: Standard.

Taste: Standard.

Golgi Apparatus: Standard.

SET 2:

Mike's Song: Typical first jam but the second jam it what inspires replay value with this version. Introspective and quiet, this one definitely adopts that ambient approach. Would recommend. >

Frankie Says: Interesting placement. This was the second and last time it was paired with Mike’s (10.31.98) >

David Bowie: Never saw this coming, very cool placement but this one is average.

Waste: Trey has some extra mustard for this one.

Sand: This one has a cerebral section to it like 7.10.00 but unlike that one, it doesn’t get bogged down and wallow in that. Instead, it quickly ramps back up and Trey goes on to burn the place down with this one with tons of reverse reverb. Loved this and would recommend. I think this was my favorite since the first one they played at the Gorge. >

The Lizards: Wow, exceptional placement! Could not have asked for a better song at this point in the set!!!

Weekapaug Groove: Standard.

ENCORE:

The Inlaw Josie Wales: Standard.

Driver: Standard.

Guyute: Standard.

Summary: The lots for these two shows were some of the most fun and lawless that I have ever seen. Everything goes/went. Absolutely nuts. This was the second longest show of the tour, and man that first set is some jukebox Phish. Solid show all things considered; we had a blast. Would rate this as a 3.8/5.

Replay Value: Foam, Mike’s Song, Sand.

After Sample, the show was stopped for 26 minutes due to a major thunderstorm.
