Jam chart entries
Ya Mar

Segues into Reggae Fest Vol. 2. with Jah Roy

Jam

With Jah Roy on vocals. Reggae Fest Vol. 2.

Sneakin' Sally Thru the Alley

High power bridge with some great Trey. Long vocal jam with more animal-like screams, howls and other weird sounds.

David Bowie

Definitely stretches the boundaries of "Type I" jamming, especially after 9:00, then at 12:00 it really gets out there into some interesting exploration.

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

Setlist notes

This show featured the first known Phish performance of Satin Doll. Fluffhead's lyrics were changed to "sure got some Bette Davis eyes" and the song later contained a "Get up John-Boy" quote (in reference to The Waltons). The jam out of Ya Mar featured Jah Roy on vocals. During the jam, Jah Roy quoted lines from many famous reggae tunes, including One Love, Three Little Birds, and Stir It Up. I Didn't Know featured Fish on trombone. A-Train featured a Flintstones theme tease from Trey. This setlist is likely incomplete.
