When was that Phish gig exactly? (Recent or years ago?)

Another thing I found bittwersweet about the movie was the flashback-to-1995 nostalgia.

I remember those years (I had long hair & a beard too, though was not a deadhead)!

It seems to me there are a lot fewer of those freaky "hardcore hippie" types around these days (or maybe they only exist in places like Berkeley now?) And I'm only talking about the last 15 years (of course there were a lot fewer hippies in the 80's before then -- guess it's a recurring cycle and the early 90's was just the most recent peak.)

One of the major thrusts of that documentary is the conflicts between "old school" deadheads, and "the new kids" who are more into the party-party-party aspect and have no respect for the "sharing & caring" 60's mentality. Guess those kids are the ones who moved on to getting arrested in Phish parking lots, but what happened to the old geezers? Some of them seemed like they were basically homeless when not "on tour".
