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 | 10 | 7:28 | 7:25 | 9:15 |
| Set 2 | 49 | 7:46 | 8:10 | 20:52 |

Based on 80 of 81 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.
