Set 2 total: 1:14:41 8 of 10 timed

Encore: My Soul [6:50], The Squirming Coil [10:44]
Encore total: 17:34

Timed portion: 2:46:17 across 19 of 21 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 21 songs here are untimed for that reason (or because the show isn't on phish.in at all).

Notes

Ya Mar was unfinished. Mike’s Song included Foxy Lady quotes from Fish and some memorable vocal interplay from the band that included a chant to “Bring in the Dude.” Fish teased My Soul in Harry Hood. Also during Hood, Trey asked Chris Kuroda to turn off the lights for a Blackout Jam and the audience responded with a shower of green glowsticks. The opening act was J. Willis Pratt & We're Bionic.

Teases

My Soul — Fish (in Harry Hood)

Jam-chart marks are curated by hand and lag the shows — the most recent months are sparsely marked because nobody has written them up yet, not because the jams were weak. See coverage →
