Jam chart entries
Bathtub Gin

After very few performances from Summer '92 - July '93, this "Gin" blows open the doors to serious improvisation, including tempo shifts, a "Sleeping Monkey"-like jam, then some great free-form jamming. -> to "Makisupa."

Mike's Song

Straightforward version until just before the customary closing chords would end the song and "Hydrogen" might begin, in that where "Simple" eventually would start-up, the band launches into what old tapes called a "Heavy Metal Jam," which features Joe Rooney screaming on vocals (and then that jam segues into "Sparks").

Run Like an Antelope

Sick jam with dissonance, rhythmic gyrations and soaring tension, then > to a reprise of "Makisupa" in the "Rocco" section.

Makisupa Policeman

> from "Antelope" for a quick "Makisupa" reprise before > back to close "Antelope".

Run Like an Antelope

> from "Makisupa" into the "Rye Rye Rocco" with an All Fall Down signal to wrap up a very strong "Antelope".

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

Setlist notes

Brother made its first appearance since July 14, 1992 (144 shows). Other breakouts included Dog Log (dedicated to Paul, and first since May 4, 1991, or 284 shows), La Grange (first since March 17, 1991, or 311 shows) and Sparks (first since September 13, 1990, or 394 shows). Guelah Papyrus contained a Simpsons signal. Bathtub Gin contained Low Rider and I Feel Pretty (West Side Story) teases. Page teased Blue Monk in My Mind's Got a Mind of its Own. The jam out of Mike’s featured Joe Rooney of the band First Born on vocals. Bike was preceded by a Moonshadow tease from Mike. The first Antelope contained Contact, Jean Pierre, and When the Saints Go Marching In teases. After a brief return to Makisupa, Antelope included an All Fall Down signal, Gimme Some Lovin' and Makisupa teases, and the lyric “Marco Policeman-dolas." Amazing Grace was performed without microphones. This show was originally scheduled for the Cuban Club Plaza and was moved to the Ritz Theatre two weeks prior to the gig. This show was released on LivePhish.com with proceeds benefiting hurricane recovery efforts in western North Carolina and the west coast of Florida after hurricanes Helene and Milton.
