Jam chart entries
Jesus Just Left Chicago

Fantastic Trey as he builds the jam from low-down, mournful blues to church service-like inspirational rocking.

Whipping Post

The extended first jam is unusually improvisational, seems to come back to normal "Whipping Post," then breaks into dissonant "DEG"-like jamming, and then more exploration. The second jam features Page on the B-3 and is more soothing and straightforward than the first.

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

Setlist notes

Mockingbird was aborted and had to be restarted due to error. Fire contained DEG teases from Trey. GTBT was dedicated to Don Drive and East Coast Printers. I Didn't Know had a false start, lyrics changed to reference "Daubs" and "Seth," and featured Fish on trombone.
