There are tons of other gems posted on the site, it's my online archive backup. But I can't share a general link because I mix in official releases with spreadable recordings. But if you have anything you're looking for, I can link individually. I have a bunch of homemade compilations up as well.

Unfortunately no 24 bit flacs for this one, just 16 bit (which they have always listed incorrectly as 16K)

I'll be buying it this weekend at some point.

I'm ready for the next LT announcement but I'd like to hear this one. Good era for sure.

The next one is the Christmas one, which is usually special in some way. It's either a big show from that year, or a fan favorite. Since there was no touring this year, I imagine it'll be a show people have wanted for a long time.

Bought it this morning, just started listening on headphones.

So far, so good. Mix sounds fine I think, Dave's vocals sound out front a bit IMO, but it feels full and clear. Many of you are better at that stuff than me, however.

So, my takeaways through 3 songs or so:

- Dave, and his guitar, sound amplified to me, compared to the rest of the instruments.
- Tim's fills are great.
- Roi is also great, and I had forgotten how unique he played during this era.
- Boyd sounds in the background unless it's a solo for him (maybe a good thing?)
- There's some crowd chatter and things like that that are definitely genuine. And there are some crowd "roars" that almost feel looped in a la Fenway. (I hope that's not true, just how it sounds to me)

Overall, the band sounds great, Dave's voice is strong, it's fun listening to a show from this era.



Really good seek up through rapunzel.

Yup, it's an absolute classic. Because of that there are a crap ton of sources for it, but they're all quite good. Give me a few and I'll up it for you...

Yes, yes, yes.

[celluloid hero]

Thanks! I've listened to great 93s, but it's not really my era, so I know I'm missing a lot of classics.

Coincidentally, I listened to Santa Fe '93 yesterday, my first Phish listen in a while, ha.

I preordered this one, and it didnt ship until this morning. Dont these usually ship ahead of release date so they get there on the correct day?

It's hit or miss, mostly miss. Did you order anything with it? Only time I've ever gotten something on release date was when it's the only thing I ordered. I generally order an older release with each new one, and get it a few days late. Last time I ordered a mask with it, and I got it a week late, which could have been due to a mask. Or it could all be random.

I defend a lot of shit, but I can never understand $7 shipping that gets here a week late. I know they aren't Amazon, but they could do better.
