Encore: Contact, The Lizards, La Grange

Timed portion: 1:28:06 across 14 of 25 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. 11 of 25 songs here are untimed for that reason (or because the show isn't on phish.in at all).

Notes

Apparently Fish got a speeding ticket on the way to the show and someone else had to set up his drum set. The Hood intro featured an Odd Couple theme tease from Page. The Fishin' Hole (aka The Andy Griffith Show theme) started with the band whistling and ended with the audience whistling to the band’s accompaniment! Slave was introduced by Mike as being written by Pete Rose; Avenu Malkenu was subsequently announced as a song written by “Pete Rose and God.” Donna Lee contained an Entrance of the Gladiators tease from Trey, the Bowie intro contained If I Were a Rich Man teases, and Antelope included a Paint it Black tease. Prior to the first The Man Who Stepped Into Yesterday, Mike teased Windows (Max Creek). This show was officially released as Live Phish 09.

Teases

Odd Couple theme — Page
Entrance of the Gladiators — Trey
