Jam chart entries
Stash

Similar to 4/20/94, except that the jam gets further away from the norm as it develops, becoming more malicious.

Esther

Super musical, this version, which features "Caravan" teasing and wonderful Page, boasts incredibly strong soloing (Trey) and remarkable full-band play.

Run Like an Antelope

A gripping version with nail biting tension and dissonance galore.

You Enjoy Myself

With Col. Bruce Hampton on piano and a Rock 'n Roll Hoochie Koo jam.

Who By Fire

Follows "YEM" serving as a vocal jam of sorts with Colonel Bruce Hampton joining on vocals.

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

Setlist notes

Trey sang the verses of Fee through a megaphone. Antelope included Simpsons and Oom Pa Pa signals. Caravan and the Phish debut of High-Heel Sneakers featured Merl Saunders on keyboards (with Merl on vocals for High-Heel Sneakers), and YEM, which included a Rock ‘n Roll Hoochie Koo jam, featured Col. Bruce Hampton on piano. The Phish debut of Who By Fire also featured Col. Bruce Hampton on vocals. Ginseng Sullivan was performed acoustic, without microphones, and featured Fish on washboard. Free Bird was played by request after Trey asked, a la Lynyrd Skynyrd, what song the crowd wanted to hear. Listen for a distinct Caravan tease in the beginning of Esther. The trampolines jam in YEM featured a guest trampoline jumper due to Trey’s broken foot.
