people, of COURSE that's Neil!! [Eek!][Eek!]

did y'all know that Neil was so stoked with his excursion with Phish that he eventually asked them to be his band on a European tour (would have been Spring or Summer 1999)? Obviously, it didn't happen, but that would have been just mind-blowing!!

somewhere, I read an interview w/Paul Languedoc, Phish's soundman and guitar tech. He explained that the Phish/Neil collaboration was discussed that day, and Neil, who performed acoustic earlier, just grabbed Trey's back-up guitar. When asked how he would like it set up, Neil just told Paul to turn everything up to 10 and he'll deal with it from the stage!! I've heard that jam too, and it's a sweet, sweet racket!! [big Grin]

Birds of Feather%, Farmhouse, Moma Dance, Runaway Jim* -> Arc** -> Down By the River***, Moonlight in Vermont#, Will the Circle Be Unbroken##, Amazing Grace^, Uncloudy Day

%Between "Birds" and "Farmhouse," Trey encouraged donations and mentioned a recent success in Vermont against the expansion of a factory farm. *Neil Young came out, plugged in, and started playing just prior to the final chorus. **Members of the Neil Young newsgroup are labeling this jam as "Arc" ("Arc" is the name of a sound collage culled from performances on Neil's 1991 tour and released as a companion to the "Weld" live album). ***Led by Neil Young; entire song/jam (which included a "space jam" and a "dissonant jam") lasted about 26 minutes. #Willie Nelson and Paul Schaffer enter the stage; Nelson on lead vocals. ##Joined by four Native Americans. ^With guitar solo by Trey.

This set was a part of the Farm Aid benefit concert. Also playing (all prior to Phish) were: Hootie and the Blowfish (with Paul Schaffer and Woody Harrelson), The Del McCoury Band with Steve Earle, Brian Wilson, Wilco, Martina McBride, Willie Nelson with Danny Lanois, John Mellencamp, and Neil Young. The entire show was broadcast on Country Music Television.
