I was so annoyed earlier because I forgot to put it onto my mp3 player to listen to today while I was at work.

The Divided Sky in the first set is my second favorite version of that song ever played (and that's my favorite of their songs).Phish 10-31-94

I'm enjoying it so far. I only got thru disc 1, which I think is about half of the first set. I've got the rest converting now. That way I can listen to whole thing tomorrow while I'm working.
I can't believe they played shows that are this long, or longer!
A quick question about the halloween shows, did the audience know going in what album they were going to play or was it always a surprise?

Halloween shows and New Year's shows were always the longest because there was always that extra set. Even so, the "regular Phish shows" were two long sets and an encore which is much more than you get out of most bands, and the ticket prices were always super low so they gave a lot of bang for one's buck. That said, even I couldn't believe they went 8 hours NYE1999/2000. That was the longest night ever and worth every second.
Depends on the year. That first time in 94, no. They announced they would do a musical costume and even had a fan vote. The White Album actually came in second to Zappa's Joe's Garage (which would have been phenomenal) but they chose to do the White Album. Actually, when you get to the second set you'll hear that they tried a quick fake out by starting the sound effects for Dark Side of the Moon before they started the Beatles songs. In 95, I don't know remember if they announced what album it would be. In 96 they made up Playbills (like for Broadway shows) that were handed out before the show with the cover of Remain in Light on it so people knew what was coming. In 98 I don't think they announced it before hand and my brother was there and had no idea what album was coming. Phish does love their little surprises.
8 hrs is crazy! Although being New Years Eve, I sure that must have been quite a party. Were you there for that one?

Quite a party as it was the NYE going into 2000, and I was there all right. I sat through 17 hours of traffic, but I was there. I just think it's funny that it took me almost as long to drive to that one (which was less than 4 hours away) as it did to drive to the NYE show the year before which was in NYC. Even the traffic was fun though. With a traffic jam that big, it became a huge party because everyone was going to the same place.
I can't imagine sitting in traffic for that long. At least you guys made the most of it, and had a fun time at the concert. You didn't end up missing any of it because of that did you? I always try to give myself extra time when going to concerts because you never know if you're going to get stuck in traffic, but I don't think I'd ever think to give myself that much time.
I'll let you know what I think of the rest of the show when I finish listening to it.

Nope, didn't miss a thing. The whole weekend was a self-contained festival with camping and they opened it the day before the music started because they knew how many people were coming (85,000). We left at noon and got to our campsite around 4 in the morning. The music started the next day.
