Hi everybody and welcome to this week’s episode of Attendance Bias. I am your host, Brian Weinstein. Whenever a guest messages me and wants to tell a story about a show from the fall 1995 tour, it’s nearly impossible to say no. And when it’s a guest who has previously been on the podcast, I know it’ll be a compelling conversation. Such is the case today, when Brian Blatt joins me to tell about Phish’s incredible show from December 7, 1995 at the Niagara Falls Convention Center in Niagara Falls, NY.

Brian is the host of the High Pitched Cavitation radio show, and has previously came onto Attendance Bias to discuss his experience seeing Phish in April, 1994 at the Concert Hall in Toronto. That conversation centered around seeing Phish in the great north at a time when they were at the tail end of their theater and smaller venue era but still playing large venues in the summer and the end of the year. They had a foot in both worlds, in a transition period. By today’s show in December 1995, the transition is nearly complete. Phish was at the end of a 3-month tour where they would play anything and everything. 

It came to a head in a most explosive way at Niagara Falls, and fans of a certain tape-collecting age know all about it. If you’re a newer or newish fan, you might know that this show has been released officially by LivePhish. Whether or not this show is new to you, it’s worth a listen for sure.

So let’s join Brian to talk about West Coast Phish, Western New York Phish, and Tetris, as we discuss December 7, 1995 at the Niagara Falls Convention Center, in Niagara Falls, NY.
