Timed portion: 1:22:36 across 12 of 15 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. 3 of 15 songs here are untimed for that reason (or because the show isn't on phish.in at all).
