Length by set
Where a song lands changes what it is: a Set 2 version of a jam vehicle runs far longer than the same song opening Set 1. One catalogue-wide average would hide exactly that.
| Set | Versions | Median | Average | Longest |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Set 1 | 1 | 4:35 | 4:35 | 4:35 |
| Set 2 | 1 | 19:15 | 19:15 | 19:15 |
| Encore | 1 | 7:25 | 7:25 | 7:25 |
Based on 3 of 3 performances — only phish.in tracks that map to exactly one song are counted, so bundled segues and in-set repeats are left out rather than guessed at.
