After LeRoi's death in 2008, Trey Anastasio posted the following on Phish's website:
"When Phish played Virginia Beach in 1997, LeRoi came on stage and started playing three saxophones at once and set off the most hilarious chain of events. Within minutes Page was playing four of his keyboards with his hands and feet and I had three guitars on and drumsticks in my hand banging on Fish’s drums. and Mike was playing two basses. It was just a phenomenal moment! And I remember LeRoi laughing with his mouth full of saxophones.

"We miss you LeRoi and thank you for the joy you brought all of us."

This show was webcast on Tuesday, May 19, 2020, as part of Phish's Dinner and a Movie series.

This show was released as a part of the Live Phish series on July 24, 2020.
