Notes Notes: Lots of Balloons popping on D2T02, after crossing over to 2002.
Vida Blue is Page McConnell of Phish, Oteil Burbridge of the Allman Brothers Band, and Russell Batiste of the Funky Meters. Midnight was celebrated with KISS-like pyrotechnics and a balloon drop. Page did not play on "America the Beautiful"; Oteil dedicated the song to New York because "they'd been through a lot this year." "Light Up or Leave Me Alone" featured Trey Anastasio and Mike Gordon of Phish, both playing Languedoc guitars (Mike on a new one recently built for him by Paul, and Trey on the older, butterscotch colored one of his). Phish lighting director Chris Kuroda manned the light board, and Phish soundman Paul Languedoc served as front- of-house engineer
