A soundcheck isn't part of the show and counts toward no song's play total or gap.

This show celebrated the release of “Phish Food” ice cream and was a benefit for the then-newly formed Waterwheel Foundation. “Ben & Jerry” made a short speech before the show and free ice cream was made available for the entire crowd. I Told You So and Love Me Like a Man, both of which featured Tammy Fletcher of The Disciples on vocals, made their Phish debuts. Cinnamon Girl was played for the first time since March 1, 1989 (904 shows). Hood contained a Barracuda tease by Trey. The last three songs of the first set, as well as Funky Bitch, featured Dave Grippo on alto sax and James Harvey on trombone. Grippo teased Third Stone From the Sun in Cars Trucks Buses and Chameleon in Suzy Greenberg. Soul Power 74 was teased by both horns in Suzy. Hello My Baby was performed without microphones. All songs in the soundcheck (except for Walfredo) featured horns.
