Jam chart entries
Run Like an Antelope

Good dissonance and great shredding by Trey in a spirited early version.

Versions phish.net's jam charts single out as noteworthy.

Setlist notes

This show was a co-bill with The Joneses. This setlist may be incomplete, as it was taken from a video that circulates. Lushington did not contain any lyrics. Alumni featured guests from local bands The Joneses and Mental Floss on rhythm guitar and saxophone.
