Phish

On April 6, 1994, when Phish performed "Mike's Song" at the Concert Hall in Toronto, the band was in a vibrant phase of their career, having just released their album "Hoist" in May 1994. This period marked a significant era for Phish, as they were gaining mainstream recognition and expanding their musical reach. "Hoist" included popular tracks, and the band was known for their improvisational style and unique blend of genres, which resonated well with their dedicated fan base. Additionally, their live performances around this time often featured extensive jams, as showcased in the recording of "Mike's Song." The April 1994 show is notable not just for its musical exploration but also for the growing excitement around the band as they prepared for a more extensive tour and greater exposure in the music scene, culminating in their landmark performance at the 1995 Great Went festival.
