Jam chart entries
Split Open and Melt

Great version. Not overly improvisational, but the jam gets into a great power rocking groove beyond "SOAM."

Bathtub Gin

The jam breaks into a different and repetitive groove early on, then returns to "Gin" in a very rocking manner.

Also Sprach Zarathustra

OJ, OJ, and more OJ.

Simple

Entertaining version with "OJ" reference, plus they quoted "Simple" quite a bit in the "Hydrogen" (and "Harpua") of this show, too.

Weekapaug Groove

Very uplifting playing from Trey in this hot version from the "OJ Show."

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

Soundcheck

Nellie Kane, Instrumental Jam > The Wedge, Funky Bitch

Setlist notes

This is the infamous “O.J. Show,” played on the night of O.J. Simpson’s Bronco chase. 2001, Mike’s, Simple, Poor Heart, and Harpua all included references to O.J. Mike’s Song also included a Mission: Impossible theme tease and Hydrogen included Simple quotes. Weekapaug contained a Nellie Kane tease from Mike. Harpua included a Simple quote and Voodoo Child tease. This show is available as an archival release on LivePhish.com.
