The Inferno Steamboat Springs, CO
tour
notes
I Didn't Know featured Fish on trombone. Possum contained a Sailor's Hornpipe tease from Trey, the David Bowie intro contained "Charge!" teases from Mike, and BBFCFM contained a Donna Lee tease.
This show started with bad sound problems, resulting in the band aborting two attempts at a Chalk Dust Torture opener. After the first Chalk Dust failed, the band said a round of "thank yous" and Fish added "good night, we'll see you next time." Antelope contained a vocal jam in the intro and a Jean Pierre tease from Trey. YEM contained Who Knows teases. The YEM vocal jam was partially based on burgers. Before Terrapin, Fish was introduced as “the late Henrietta,” and then commented that he is no longer Henrietta, but has not yet thought of a new name. He and Trey introduced Chris Kuroda (as “Cooter,” with a “Charge!” tease) and Colorado fan “Erik the Viking.” Terrapin included a brief Whole Lotta Love jam. Weekapaug contained a Theme from Bonanza tease by Trey.
Trey teased Dave's Energy Guide and Jean Pierre in Weekapaug Groove. Mike teased "Charge!" before I Didn't Know. Trey teased Stairway to Heaven in Suzy Greenberg. Bold As Love was dedicated to Hamm and Chris Cottrell who had made the band a barbeque dinner before the show. Mike and Fish teased Iron Man after Bold As Love. Wilson was played in a heavy metal style. Ride Captain Ride was played for the first time since May 28, 1989 (116 shows).
Trey and Page teased Fluffhead prior to Funky Bitch. Reba was aborted and restarted with Fish saying "we have a problem with this band. It's counting to four" and then rattling off other numbers the band could count to. Trey teased Jean Pierre in Run Like an Antelope, Entrance of the Gladiators in Caravan, and Caravan in Possum.
Page dedicated Ya Mar to "Malcolm." Possum contained a Jägermeister Song quote and Skip to My Lou tease from Trey and a Rhapsody in Blue tease from Page. YEM's vocal jam featured Fish singing what would eventually become Jägermeister Song (this would debut six nights later) and Trey teasing Flash Light. Trey also teased Skip to My Lou in Take the 'A' Train. Bowie contained a Jägermeister Song quote, Birdland teases from Trey and Mike, and Miss Gulch / Witch's theme teases from Page. Terrapin featured Fish on trombone.
