Steve Lutz is a professor of Environmental Studies at Dartmouth University. He is also the most detail-oriented Phish fan I know. By coincidence, we both started seeing Phish at the same show (12/29/97), and met a few years later on a Phish-centric message board. Since then, we've geeked out about EVERYTHING related to the band. Dave's knowledge of Phish-minutiae far exceeds my own, so when he chose to talk about day 2 of the 1999 Oswego Festival, I knew it would go deep.
I was right. By the time we were an hour into the conversation, we had barely scratched the surface of set 1. We just couldn't stop thinking of extra details to dive into! This day of the festival is so dense with incredible jams, guest sit-ins, and more, I had to split the episode in two.
In Part 1, Dave and I talk about what led him to the festival at such a young age, why Oswego felt hastily assembled compared to previous Phish festivals, and the heat that persisted throughout the weekend.
