A strong, underrated show, though even the vid can't come close to capturing the MS(ener)G

U.S. Blues (Wave That Flag)

Selland Arena

Phil steals the ball at the solo point, dribbles hard down the court, and throws down -- like three times in a row and for the rest of the song... can't close the doors when the Walls of Phil cave in!

'71 pounces.
Attics of My Life
June 6, 1993
Giants Stadium

I was lucky to catch Attics in ’89 and then even four or five times after, but I never contemplated that they’d break it out in a stadium. Wow. And then again at Giant’s the following summer. Yet, this show was like the last party that represented what the GD experience was all about (for me, anyway) even though I went to more shows this year and in the remaining years. This brings me to 6693 on the chart here, and it was my 66th show, FWIW.
