1985-11-23

GODDARD COLLEGE · Plainfield, VT · 1985 Tour Era 1.0

Set 2: Mike's Song [4:36], Whipping Post notes ↗, Run Like an Antelope [9:06] -> Dave's Energy Guide [3:42]
Set 2 total: 17:24 3 of 4 timed

Timed portion: 17:24 across 3 of 5 songs — a floor, not the show's length.

Times come from phish.in and are shown only where one track maps to exactly one song. Segued songs are often released as a single bundled track carrying one duration for several songs, and a song played twice in a set can't be told apart — those get no time rather than a made-up one. 2 of 5 songs here are untimed for that reason (or because the show isn't on phish.in at all).

Notes

This list for Set II is likely incomplete, as the only recording that circulates fades in and out at points. The “Whipping Post Jam” fades in after Mike’s Song on the recording that circulates. This “Jam” contained a jam reminiscent of Dark Star. It also featured Norwegian Wood teases from Mike, a Slave to the Traffic Light tease from Trey, and a jam reminiscent of the early intro to Harry Hood. Antelope fades in after the “Whipping Post Jam” fades out. The complete lists for Sets I (featuring the first known Phish performance of Wild Thing) and II are not known, although Mike has referenced the first set Wild Thing in interviews and in The Phish Book.
