Jam chart entries
My Friend, My Friend

Evil outro jam and vocals.

Runaway Jim

-> in from "Simple." Excellent Fish and Trey on this improvisational version.

Foam

Another very strong Fall '94 version, infused with rhythmic and other stylistic variation.

Split Open and Melt

Excellent, thrashing, wild and unfinished version kicks off a great, unsusual segue-fest. -> "Buffalo Bill" -> "Makisupa" -> "Rift."

Buffalo Bill

A spry, playful jam is tagged onto the end, which sounds like it's going to speed up for a second. Instead, it pivots (->) neatly into a super "Makisupa."

Makisupa Policeman

-> in from "Buffalo Bill." After 3:00, this "Makisupa" breaks into some great '94-style jamming, spacey at first, then hard rocking with a great -> to "Rift."

Down with Disease

Not way out there, but moments of crashing, noisy rocking beyond the standard, then some great '94 space following the final lyrics before a -> to "TMWSIY."

Sparks

-> in from "TMWSIY." Classic '94 space follows "TMWSIY" and very gradually and miraculously -> into the Who classic.

You Enjoy Myself

Short but very, very sweet!

Run Like an Antelope

"Antelope" -> "Sleeping Monkey" > "Antelope." Fantastic improvisational playing with all the good '94 stuff combined with a seamless segue, then a return to "Antelope" for more exploratory jamming. Great version and song pairing.

Sleeping Monkey

-> in from "RLAA." Awesome song combination and humorous relief in the midst of an ass-kicking and exploratory "Antelope." > back to "RLAA."

Run Like an Antelope

> in from "Sleeping Monkey" and this "Antelope" provides more exploratory jamming before winding down in good fashion.

Harry Hood

One quality of many great '94 "Hoods" is their balance of grace and power. As the encore from a fantastic show, this "Hood" begins with some quiet and delicate playing, which pairs nicely with the raw energy and intensity of the finish.

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

Setlist notes

Trey teased Simple in Runaway Jim. Melt was unfinished. Buffalo Bill was played for the first time since November 21, 1992 (226 shows). Makisupa ended with a BBFCFM tease from Trey and Fish. During Bike, Fish made reference to the new dress he was given that afternoon and wore to the show. Antelope contained a May the Force Be With You tease from Trey. This show is available as an archival release on LivePhish.com.
