My first show was 06/23/1994 @ Phoenix Centre Amphitheater, Pontiac MI. The venue was on the top of a parking garage. It was a real great venue in the 90s.
Right on.. My teenage son wishes he grew up on the 90s. Amazing music decade and seemed to be a less stressful time overall.. F-ing iphones and social media ruined everything. But it's cool to be able to check this out on RUclips!
My 1996 Audi 2.8 Quattro had over 300,000 miles of Phish under her hood. Never had a problem with her ever. From Detroit to NY to FL to Washington State and everywhere in between. Ever since I was 16 and a Junior in High School I would be on the road when school let out in June and I wouldn’t be home until last week of August before school started back up. I wouldn’t trade those times for anything! My God what a time to be alive.
I signed up to work with clean vibes, I got my laminate, worked on hauling beer bottles away on the first night & figured hqvying the laminate for the rest of the weekend was my payfor working Friday
I'm in THIS! [at approximately 7:08 seconds] That's a 17 year old me (barefoot, ponytail, shorts) with my best friend Chris (short hair, shirt over his shoulder), and my other friend Rob (the tallest). Chris and I were B.S.ing on Messenger today, we got to talking about the band and how amazing they've been playing lately. He started searching around on RUclips and randomly happened across this short film about the Oswego festy. He jokingly asked if I was in it... And then... THIS!!!! As it turns out, it was exactly 20 years ago TODAY (He had no clue!) Our minds are completely BLOWN! I remember having lots of dejavu at that show, and today when first watching it, I had another spell of dejavu! Life is so cool and mysterious! THANK YOU TO THE BAND For over 20 years of magical mysterious events, like Oswego... and today! I feel so privileged to call this my life. PHISH's gigs have been the hemp that has tied it all together for me, and highlighted my entire existence thus far! I'm currently Feeling so blessed and grateful to be alive... here & now & there & then! (-= Thanks for letting me share =-)
I was there!!!...it was SO hot!! Waiting in the ice line all day for a $10 bag of ice lol...crazy heat! Awesome shrooms, great bud and ganja balls, amazing people,,good friends and great memories. Music was as good as it gets from the boys. Those were the days, and there will never be another time like it. ^_^
Literally brings tears to my eyes! The joy of youth. I would give anything to have it back. Thanks for posting this. I couldn't find myself in the masses but I was definitely there.
These were the days! I did this whole summer tour! Phish and us Phans were wild as hell back then! Navigating to the shows with a rand macnally road maps atlas! Fuel was only like a dollar and change per gallon! Great times!
It was so hot!! Me and my crew had a spot at the edge where we could sneak a car off/on the campground to buy then sell ice. The demand for heady black market ice was incredible and paid for almost our whole weekend!! One of the best weekends of my life, up there next to Big Cypress. Im way late to this comment section but thanks for posting! Gimme a thumbs up if you had a blast!
Thank u for posting this . After a 149 shows festivals some stand out more than others . This doc made my week !!! It unlocked countless memories of great times . U get what phish is. Y we all do what we have to to see shows . Special people special music ! Great doc .
Holy shitballs this is amazing! Thank you so much for documenting it and posting it. I don’t think I’ve ever seen footage since I was there. Note to younger self always bring a camera and a video camera. This is absolutely amazing work. I love it I appreciate it. I am taking screenshots and giving you all photo credit For my today. In Phish history. This was such a phenomenal weekend. I’m so grateful that you posted this 11 years ago and I found it today. This is absolutely 🙌 God I miss the 90s. ✌️💚⭕️🎶
I was at Oswego, some of the sickest jamming I ever saw phish do was this weekend and the crowd was just amazing, full of love and light. GREAT people there, contrast that to the crowd at Woodstock '99 which was a few weeks later also in NY which truly made me embarrassed for my generation. Great times back then though all around. 90's phish tours were always awesome
Thanks for the time and effort. Didn’t go to Oswego but been to 3 phish fests starting with IT and been to many a festival since as well. You did a good job of showing all angles.
I think you had another documentary that I’m actually in… I was standing next to my friend while he was talking about how long it took us to get there. I’m laughing so hard watching this. My car broke down the morning we were leaving. I got it fixed that day, and then we took off. It took us eight hours to get there, and when we finally parked and found phish ( the festival was so big, from far away you couldn’t hear the music) we literally heard the last note of first night. 😂 We we’re so happy & grateful to be there. Those were the days. Not a care in the world. I think I slept on top of my car? 😂 I can’t believe I never knew the Del McCurry Band was there ! I didn’t know them at the time, but now they’re one of my favorite bands. I just got back from Delfest . My 10th & one of the best festivals on the East Coast. I was massaging at active potential with the dream healing team.. these festivals that PHISH put on are still one of my favorite and happiness times of my life. I wish I could relive.. the last festival I went to was Magaball and I had such an amazing time! I was an hour away to arrive at curveball when it was canceled and my heart was broken. I know that they are going to Mexico every year but I really hope that they put another festival together. We deserve one after CURVEBALL . I miss it! If you ever read this, Mike, Trey, Paige, Jon, please put another festival together again in the future ! We love your festivals , and we will forever love you all! Thank you for a real good time !🙌🏼⭕️💙⭕️💙⭕️💙
just found this video with the bump from jambase - what a crazy weekend - got stuck in the traffic jam coming in 1st night - slept in the car in an awful parking spot on blacktop - drove off site next morning and bought all the ice we could at a gas station - sold it out of the back of our van driving back into the site and nestled into a beautiful spot to set up camp for the 2nd night - hot, sweat, sunburn, and a ton of amazing music - thanks for posting!
We brought and drank about 25 gallons of water that weekend. The shows we off the richter scale. I wish I caught the Slip playing on the side stage. Our buddies O.D'd on brownies and essentially slept the festival away in their tent. Phun times
What a great time! Thanks for posting this. The porta potties were over flowing and it smelled like a third world country on the last day. It was amazing! So much fun!
One of the best weekends of my life. Son Seals coming up for Funky Bitch was off the chain. The meatstick dance to try to get in the guiness book of world records. Meeting and hanging out with Tom Marshall, finding out that I too am also a Dude of Life. LOL
Crazy! At the 7:00 timestamp right as wolfmans brother starts playing , there is a shot of that wood sign of "The Green" Then as it pans out showing the whole green area , no people with the Ferris wheel in the distance... then it pans left and the first three people that walk across the screen are My friend James (first ) Rob ( Middle ) then me LOL I was 17 !
A simpler time. I was only 6 years old, almost 7. I was at David Cone's perfect game while this was going on. I wouldn't discover Phish for another ten years. This festival has always been fascinating for me. It's always felt like the ugly duckling of Phish festivals. It was sandwiched right in the middle of a tour. When the tour announcement came out there was no mention of it being a festival with a third set one of the days. I'm told that they later announced that they would add a third set. One of the shows was a normal two set show (which was unusual in those days). This is the only Phish festival without a From the Archives from Kevin Shapiro. Yet on it's face, it looks like a Phish festival to me. There's art installations, camping linked to the venue, in an extremely inconvenient location. And Phish counts it as one of their festivals.
P.N.C the night before was off the hook but man what a haul too get too Oswego we drove all night got their with the bands bus following behind us what an experience
I never understood Phish fans, and after watching youtube videos of the parking lots I think i get it now. You know you're in a weird place when all the comments on a youtube video are positive!
Dude, this brings back so many memories. We took some vids there too - a bud yelled this is so my kids know I was cool lol. If I can find that will put it up. Thanks for the memories, word.
My first Phish festival! Lots of great memories. They say it was smaller and less elaborate that the Clifford Ball or the Went, but it seemed awesome to me. The Summer of '99 was definitely my favorite Phish experience!!
Thanks for the post. I was there in that HEAT for a few days as a vendor in the Green. I had the Wax Hands crafts, in btw the glass blower & the air chairs. Awesome weekend. Large amount of festing going on. My brother & friends had an RV up by the edge of the woods. That thing was like over 125 degrees F inside during the day. It was my first show, & I loved it. Long ass drive from Long Island, but totally worth it. Been a big Phan ever since. Your vid is the only one I've ever seen, Nice work!
and this was before everyone had cell phones; trying to meet up with ppl via that message wall? pfft. good luck! actually we had walkie talkies too but still...
My No. 1 memory of the weekend was the heat. I spent the afternoon before the first night's show next to the soundboard stage area, rolling under the elevated platform to hide from the sun on occasion. Boy, was it hot.
We all wondered what Joe had gotten himself into right up until he showed up in the closing credits of this mini-doc!! He found it and showed us and we had a good laugh 😂
Thanks for posting, that was a pretty special weekend. Made me think of some great times, music and friends. Good festival. Crazy juxtaposition between this and Woodstock 2 a week or two after in Rome, NY.
If anyone lives in CNY, I have a big orange road sign that says "PHISH CONCERT USE RT 4" in my mom's shed. One of my best friends gave it to me, he worked at the Volney Airport and found it in a hanger or warehouse while working. Message me if you want this piece of Phish History! I live in Cali now, so I can't put it on my wall.
Great post...i was there, called the runaway second set opener and i had the WORST jock itch ever!!!! So fucking HOTTTTTT. the boys were good enough to have HUGE ASS water containers sporadically around the parking lot/ campground. Miss these days!!!
I went coast to coast 2 and ½ times LITERALLY in phish tour WITHOUT paying for gasoline!! This was before prepay inside.....and that's the tip of the iceberg of what we were up to back rhen
Jumped on the train in July of 1999 @ Alpine Valley. A little late to the party. Alpine, Deer Creek, Polaris, Everglades, Albany, Coventry, Chicago (Northerly Island). #Curveball
To the young girl narrating this video. Around the 13 minute mark, just before she says, "there were some sketchy people here" she goes on to say, "there was some people raging rap music....what are they doing here." Excuse me? Is it not possible that someone could appreciate both genres of music and the shear fact they were raging rap music meant they were shady or sketchy? The reason I am saying this is because it was likely my friends and I who were raging that music and between the group that attended that day, we have seen well over 150 phish shows and oh by the way...we are all contributing members to society, have jobs, pay taxes and are not beholden to any stereotypes. We also believe strongly in tolerance. Perhaps more of these so called Phish heads should learn to be more tolerant and realize the world is made up of all kinds and not everyone quits life, follows Phish and refuses to embrace the idea of diversity unless of course its wrapped in a tie dye, smells like weed, and is selling something.
It was SOO FUCKING HOT!!! Absolutely dangerous out on that field both days. I kept passing out and falling on the neighbors directly behind me that first day, I was out there 8hrs in that sun...fuck me I'll never forget that. Remember walking by a sign between tents and stage: "Pharmaceutical Orgy!" it proclaimed, and it wasn't lying.
15:50 is one of the main reasons I stopped going to the "big shows" after Clifford Ball. The garbage on the ground, and the garbage people that showed up breaking bottles and going after people because they were too fucked up and didn't know how to handle it. So glad the band is touring the way they do now....helps to keep the masses down!

The summer of 95 up until September 10th 2001, was really a wonderful time to be young and alive.
Agreed!
Still is

Digita L-Buddha truth
First show(s) $10 for a bottle water here. When it rained the second day waiting to get into the stage area the place erupted.
The heat the first day was absolutely killer
I ligit baked in my friends vw van after driving all night from the pnc show the night before the pnc was absolutely fire
I was there too. It was a blast!!!
This was the best times of my life! Thank you for bringing back the memories!! Super glad I got to see the boys during this era...the best!!
Hells yeah.

OSwego was indeed A TIME IN MY LIFE when i discovered soul, pure life discovery, when everything kind of made sense.?
stephen jackson couldn’t relate more!
just found this video with the bump from jambase - what a crazy weekend - got stuck in the traffic jam coming in 1st night - slept in the car in an awful parking spot on blacktop - drove off site next morning and bought all the ice we could at a gas station - sold it out of the back of our van driving back into the site and nestled into a beautiful spot to set up camp for the 2nd night - hot, sweat, sunburn, and a ton of amazing music - thanks for posting!
This brings back some serious memories ... gas was like $1 a gallon that summer if not less
We brought and drank about 25 gallons of water that weekend. The shows we off the richter scale. I wish I caught the Slip playing on the side stage. Our buddies O.D'd on brownies and essentially slept the festival away in their tent. Phun times
I miss these days.
Now it's just aggressive wooks on Ketamine moshing to Carini.
Was A Great Time! Super hot. Thanks for posting. Great memories.
man this fest was SO hot. we did Oswego after all of summer tour minus Atlanta, no A/C in the cars. What a sweaty blast
What a great time! Thanks for posting this. The porta potties were over flowing and it smelled like a third world country on the last day. It was amazing! So much fun!
This was such a wonderful time to be a phish fan.
One of the best weekends of my life. Son Seals coming up for Funky Bitch was off the chain. The meatstick dance to try to get in the guiness book of world records. Meeting and hanging out with Tom Marshall, finding out that I too am also a Dude of Life. LOL
Thank you for this. It really made my day to relive some of that time. What an amazing weekend this was! See ya in Delaware
thanks man. great memories. beautiful clean high. with my bestest buddies. partying like a DOCTOR!
I think that was the weekend before Woodstock, and the World Guiness attempt at the largest dance sequence with the meatstick...
Same weekend. Hot as hell. Woodstock burned and Oswego grooved.
Meatstick same weekend. Woodstock week later.
I was 12 years old , I lived right down the street I remember unusual crowds that came in that weekend
Crazy! At the 7:00 timestamp right as wolfmans brother starts playing , there is a shot of that wood sign of "The Green"
Then as it pans out showing the whole green area , no people with the Ferris wheel in the distance... then it pans left and the first three people that walk across the screen are My friend James (first ) Rob ( Middle ) then me LOL
I was 17 !
I was there! Thanks so much for this healthy dose of nostalgia!
Awesome! I’m in this video:) 13:57. Me and my now husband and our friends who are now married too. What a great time. Man was it HOT.
What a good time I had. Thank you Phish.

1st live show! I remember that post office lol. Thanks for the upload!
Nice mini doc Thanks for sharing this. Went to lemonwheel in `98
Oh yeah! I remember loving the toasted marshmallows installation! One of my favorite festy gags!
P.N.C the night before was off the hook but man what a haul too get too Oswego we drove all night got their with the bands bus following behind us what an experience
11:48 "This is my nephew he's 3." (eye blink) "This is my nephew, he's 27." Time rolls on, holy shit I miss the 90's!
Thanks for sharing man! Wish I knew Phish back then
Summer 99 was one of the, or possibly, the best Phish tour. Not a dud all summer.
I never understood Phish fans, and after watching youtube videos of the parking lots I think i get it now. You know you're in a weird place when all the comments on a youtube video are positive!
I was born a year before this and have seen phish 37 times now.
Love it!!! Thanks for sharing! What a great flashback. It was so ridiculously hot that weekend but so much fun :)
This is really well done. Thanks for sharing
great min doc brings back lots of fun times remember how hot it was that week end out there soooo hot!!!!!!!!!!
Dude, this brings back so many memories. We took some vids there too - a bud yelled this is so my kids know I was cool lol. If I can find that will put it up. Thanks for the memories, word.
Love the syracuse sign in the beginning. that's where my trip to oswego started too !
My first Phish festival! Lots of great memories. They say it was smaller and less elaborate that the Clifford Ball or the Went, but it seemed awesome to me. The Summer of '99 was definitely my favorite Phish experience!!
Thanks for the post. I was there in that HEAT for a few days as a vendor in the Green. I had the Wax Hands crafts, in btw the glass blower & the air chairs. Awesome weekend. Large amount of festing going on. My brother & friends had an RV up by the edge of the woods. That thing was like over 125 degrees F inside during the day. It was my first show, & I loved it. Long ass drive from Long Island, but totally worth it. Been a big Phan ever since. Your vid is the only one I've ever seen, Nice work!
Amazing! What a great time. Hottest shows ever! Part of me melted that weekend!
Dude! We were there too! What a trip. Thanks for sharing.
Was at this sweat hole for those shows. Great shows they were indeed. That runway was hot as bawls.
and this was before everyone had cell phones; trying to meet up with ppl via that message wall? pfft. good luck! actually we had walkie talkies too but still...
thank god there were no cell phones back then :)
My No. 1 memory of the weekend was the heat. I spent the afternoon before the first night's show next to the soundboard stage area, rolling under the elevated platform to hide from the sun on occasion. Boy, was it hot.
Great choice not to cut off the Coil!
Thanks for the upload, brought back a lot memories from that HOT HOT weekend.
Thanks for letting it run!
Thanks for posting. Brings back a lot of memories!
That's my 2 tone van 1:08 into the video lol. They made me pull is to that lot to search for tanks.
We all wondered what Joe had gotten himself into right up until he showed up in the closing credits of this mini-doc!! He found it and showed us and we had a good laugh 😂
I avoided the porta potty’s there like the plague. I didn’t take a crap for three days
Great video of an amazing show, thanks for sharing this video
Thanks for posting, that was a pretty special weekend. Made me think of some great times, music and friends. Good festival.
Crazy juxtaposition between this and Woodstock 2 a week or two after in Rome, NY.
Sweet video. I watched a mini documentary for Hampton the other day and now this one. Nice job editing and filming!
My crew still talks about this weekend endlessly
10:14 The message board.
11:06 The Post Office.
Enough said.
I was there it was super hot out! So much fun...
If anyone lives in CNY, I have a big orange road sign that says "PHISH CONCERT USE RT 4" in my mom's shed. One of my best friends gave it to me, he worked at the Volney Airport and found it in a hanger or warehouse while working. Message me if you want this piece of Phish History! I live in Cali now, so I can't put it on my wall.
I might have to come by
you can't put it on your wall because you live in California? Do they have some silly state law that forbids it?
You don't happen to have this sign still by any chance do you? That would be epic to have
My band played the parking lot of Oswego. Those were the days.
Great post...i was there, called the runaway second set opener and i had the WORST jock itch ever!!!! So fucking HOTTTTTT. the boys were good enough to have HUGE ASS water containers sporadically around the parking lot/ campground. Miss these days!!!
I’m in this video 🤘🏽 6:47 thanks man good work!
Oswego ROCKED 🎊 🎊 🎊 🎊 🎊 🎊 🎊 🎊 🎊 🎊
I went coast to coast 2 and ½ times LITERALLY in phish tour WITHOUT paying for gasoline!! This was before prepay inside.....and that's the tip of the iceberg of what we were up to back rhen
Was there... Best ever! Super hot! Found that tarps do not make good blankets! Haha
Jumped on the train in July of 1999 @ Alpine Valley. A little late to the party. Alpine, Deer Creek, Polaris, Everglades, Albany, Coventry, Chicago (Northerly Island). #Curveball

What's a "hot drove"? Sounds like some kinky shit.
Hahah I love the Farmhouse porta-potty.
thanks for postin' this
Ha! My crew driving in in my VW van at 15:58. Good old days!

Jason Sakran I think she meant the people raging the rap were the sketchy people, not that all people who rage rap are sketchballs.
there were sketchy people there, they ransacked tents while the shows were going on.
oh yeah? Then what happened?!!!
chedderz66 Ik right, lmfao!!!
Band snobs kill me.
We were blasting WuTang the whole tour, lol
thanks for the upload! makes me want to go to curveball

Can u Explain bud, im curious.. blueberry pancake man
It was SOO FUCKING HOT!!! Absolutely dangerous out on that field both days. I kept passing out and falling on the neighbors directly behind me that first day, I was out there 8hrs in that sun...fuck me I'll never forget that. Remember walking by a sign between tents and stage: "Pharmaceutical Orgy!" it proclaimed, and it wasn't lying.
Oh yes. Message boards. Wait...which first aid tent are we supposed to meet at?
15:50 is one of the main reasons I stopped going to the "big shows" after Clifford Ball. The garbage on the ground, and the garbage people that showed up breaking bottles and going after people because they were too fucked up and didn't know how to handle it. So glad the band is touring the way they do now....helps to keep the masses down!
