Phish continued to dig into their back catalogue last night at Darien Center, NY’s Darien Lake Performing Arts Center. The group opened their set with this year’s first version of Hot Rize’s “Nellie Kane.” The song was reportedly played after the band noticed some signs requesting the number. (Trey Anastasio also jokingly referenced a tongue-in-cheek sign requesting the poorly received original song “Jennifer Dances”). The members of the group also dusted off Bob Marley’s “Mellow Mood,” the original “Buffalo Bill,” “Undermind,” Blues Images’ “Ride Captain Ride,” “It’s Ice” and “Dog Face Boy” for the first time this year.

The group opened its second set with one of their most popular new covers, TV on the Radio’s “Golden Age” and then segued into a Mike’s Groove that consisted of “Mike’s Song,” “Fast Enough For You” and “Weekapaug Groove.” Later in their set, Phish also brought out The Siket Disc instrumental “What’s The Use?” for the fist time in 2011 and teased “Happy Birthday” during “2001.”
