Phish - 'Fee' Live Performance at Madison Square Garden, New York

Venue: Late Show With David Letterman Location: New York, New York, United States Date: December 30, 1994

On December 30, 1994, Phish performed at Madison Square Garden during their New Year’s Run, a series of shows celebrated by fans for their energetic performances and unique improvisation. By this time in their career, Phish had released their critically acclaimed album "Hoist" earlier in 1994, which included popular tracks like "Down with Disease" and "Sample in a Jar." This live recording of "Fee" captures the band at a pivotal moment as they were gaining significant popularity, transitioning from a devoted cult following to a more mainstream recognition. Interesting to note is Phish's strong connection with their fanbase, exemplified by the gratitude expressed to tapers and traders in the recording’s description, reflecting the band’s ethos of sharing music and experiences freely. The 1994 New Year’s Run would become a landmark event in their history, further solidifying their reputation as a premier live act.
