Welcome to the 461st edition of Phish.Net's Mystery Jam Monday, the third of April - thanks to MJM HoFer @Zands for today's clips! The winner will receive an MP3 download code courtesy of our friends at LivePhish.com / Nugs.Net. To win, be the first person to identify the songs and dates of both mystery clips, which are connected by a theme. Each person gets one guess to start – if no one answers correctly in the first 24 hours, I'll post a hint. After the hint, everyone gets one more guess before Wednesday at 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET. Stay safe!
Hint: Neither of these jams comes from "Makisupa Policeman" - in fact, neither of these jams comes from a show featuring "Makisupa Policeman." One of these jams was played in 2.0; both of these jams were played in the summer.
Answer: Congrats to @experiencechuck on his fifth win, identifying two August 14th jams: 8/14/04 "Halley's Comet" and 8/14/96 "Wilson" -> "Jam." This week's win leaves him two short of the Hall of Fame - will he leapfrog @sumac22, will @sumac22 close it out, or will they both stumble on next week's most difficult challenge of the month? Swing by Monday for a shot at glory...

6/24/94 Antelope
8/14/96 Wilson -> Jam
I literally called into work today.. and that’s only reason I was able to get this
Oh well. There's always next week! Nice work @experiencechuck.
After that I started on the next by cross checking the date, and usually it’s not so straightforward, but because this was a particularly hard one I was lucky that the thread between them was more obvious. As soon as I saw Wilson -> Jam -> DWD I remembered that was a great show with a crappy AUD and you could hear Mike starting to lay into the DWD effects, so I knew before I even listened (of course I checked anyway).
So, that's it. All of my darkest fears, and everything I'm capable of. That's me.
