Are you sure.

I had thought that it was the following night (but my memory could definitely off), where I've already posted that whole scene from my perspective.

Off nite

Phil looked like he was still in pajamas, the sound crew had the world series on TV- the audience may have been interested, but not the dead or crew.

The whole show backwards!!

I remember the house lights came on before Black Muddy River and stayed on for the song. After the song was over the house lights went back down. At this point a very spun guy infront of me started freakin out saying they were gonna play the whole show again backwards! The funnier part is that for a few moments i believed him!
I also fell on my ass during drums surround sound spinning me around on the floor. I had to mop up my face after this show.
I believe this was also the show that the security outside got real scary. Was this show that Adam Katz got killed? I remember seeing that poor kids face everywhere for the next bunch of years. I heard threats from security several times that night.

Yes, this was the Katz show.

Funny thing is, I think this was the show where two dudes, obviously tripping, were hanging off the first deck, when part of the lighting or whatever they were sitting on gave way, and the one dude disappeared into space. Was this actually Katz, and did he really just fall and whack his head? Maybe. It was freaky though.

segway

check out the Scarlet->Truckin' segway. It Fuckin' smokes.

Adam Katz was killed at Sat

Adam Katz was killed at Sat night show. no one found out til Monday night, when the security were strangely friendly "It's Bobby's birthday, everyone's smiling" i remember the guy saying on our way in. Nice way to try and cover...
Saturday night the guards were threatening violence after the show on seems like everyone, when we weren't getting into our car fast enough one of the guys in our group was threatened with some sort of violence by one of the yellowjackets, we got the heck out of there. They pretty much came thru the lot and anyone not in their cars leaving got threatened....
of course Monday night after word was out, they were much more relaxed.
Not sure about Sunday, that was the only one I missed of the set
