A greatest-hits night - nothing shelved more than 50 shows.
Gap = shows since the song was last played, at the moment it was played.
"Julius"-like repeated riff from Trey (no joke) beginning around 6:43 for a minute. Very cool version. "Buried Alive" tease from Trey.
A bizarre composed section usually bodes of cool things to come, which, in this particular instance, arrives in the form of a series of subtle effects from Trey, who then begins to play atop a very chill yet musical beat driven by Mike and Fish. Again, the band moves as one, and the playing gains a sort of restrained momentum, with the build informed by huge notes and more direct playing from Trey, who works to augment his tone to trill before creating a period of wonderful sustain.
Typical for Spring '93, the jam includes a breakdown section, and this one features great interplay between all four, a gradual and mildly dissonant return to "Weekapaug," and a trill-filled, predictably strong peak.
Versions phish.net's jam charts single out as noteworthy.
Page teased the theme to Speed Racer in Foam and the theme to Jeopardy! in Divided Sky. Esther's intro contained a Random Note signal. I Didn't Know featured Fish on trombone. Antelope included Simpsons and All Fall Down signals and Jean Pierre teases from Trey. Tweezer contained a Buried Alive tease from Trey and Page teased the theme to Star Trek before Terrapin. The Horse featured Trey on acoustic guitar. Amazing Grace was performed without amplification and was preceded by an a cappella rendition of The Eleven by a tenor in the front of the balcony.
