The first Oh Kee Pah Ceremony takes place in the spring. In August, Phish is promised a two week tour booked by club owner Warren Stickney. Though Warren never calls back, the band drives from Vermont to Telluride, Colorado, to play in Warren's bar. In November and early December, the band returns to Euphoria Studios to finish recording Junta. The album is duplicated on cassette tape and sold at shows.
