After today's spectacular overture by Franz Von Suppe, you will hear Wagner's "Ride of the Valkyries"! Valkyries are Norse goddesses that collect the slain Norse warriors from the field of battle and carry them off to Valhalla, home of Odin and the other Norse gods. Hear their blood-curdling cry of "Hotohoyo!" as they sweep the battlefield in search of the dead. In honor of upcoming weddings, Dr. Paul plays Wagner's Wedding Chorus. Listen and relive your own wedding, or imagine your future. The second hour is dominated by the monumental Piano Concerto #1 by Tchaikovsky, whose concluding movement is like an out-of-control, onrushing train.

The Lemonwheel was Phish's third ever festival. It took place at the Loring Air Force Base in Limestone, ME, and there were more than 60,000 people in attendance for six two-hour sets of music ( plus a seventh late-night ambient space jam under a starry Maine sky on night one). For three short days, the festival was the largest city in the state of Maine. Very few things in life are as phun as a Phestival, I swear it's true.

Tonight's show is Night 2, includes parts of Sets II and III, and is sheer listening pleasure! Enjoy!
