Assume this was early to mid-90's show?
Yeah, 94 in Birmingham. But even before that show, I had friends that were huge Deadheads always playing bootlegs from the 70's and 80's and it never really grabbed me for some reason. I had one of the Dick's Picks CDs for years(Winterland late 70's I think) and that was about the only one I could listen to with any regularity.

Yeah, I really love the Grateful Dead but Phish just does it more for me. Can't wait to be in Chicago to see their worlds collide.

Actually that was in '95...I remember it well as i was there and that was my last show ever. I remember the 2nd night being just Ok but the first night was just god-awful. However, neither were worth a shite in comparison to the band they were just five years earlier...I rememebr Garcia looked like a ghost....looked to be about 90 when he was just in his 50's....It really felt like the end of the road.
All I can tell you is in their prime, there was nothing else like them and if you weren't there, well its just hard to explain. TFWIW.
