Setlist notes

While this show may have taken place six nights later, this date is believed to be correct. This setlist is incomplete. The show contained the first known Phish performances of Why Don't You Love Me?, Blue Monk, Boogie On Reggae Woman, Ya Mar, and Corinna. In the intro to Blue Monk, Trey said “Ladies and gentlemen, three quarters of the Bob Dylan Band.” Blue Monk subsequently contained an 'A' Train tease from Page.
