 All Accoustic

They talked between songs about Halloween, Utah, the media, and Red Rocks
Contrary to rumors, they did not say that they were invited back to Red Rocks,
they said that they would LIKE to be invited back for a 5 night run, laughingly,
because it was made clear that they would never be invited back after the 1996
'non-event' as Mike called it in the interview.
Some banter included: "Radio will be saved by playing more Phish"
"I like radio...it's just bad music on the radio that's the problem" - Trey
"I think it's too late for commercial success to ruin us...[laughs]...
"I don't think we have to worry about that," said Trey.
