Jam chart entries
Esther

Exceptionally strong version featuring great solos and tight playing from all four musicians.

It's Ice

Excellent percussion support from Fish in this choppy, discordant jam.

Timber (Jerry the Mule)

Set II opener. Excellent Deer Creek version with nice Fish and Page contributions. Transition to "Sparkle" once again.

Run Like an Antelope

Rhythmic variation plus good dissonance combine to put this intense version outside the box.

Possum

Extended intro with cool funky Mike and Trey. Jam peaks at 10:30, then drops into dissonant mode before re-powering.

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

Soundcheck

Jam, Lean On Me (instrumental), The Old Home Place, Ain't Too Proud To Beg -> Jam

Setlist notes

Possum included All Fall Down and Simpsons signals as well as Voodoo Child and Dave's Energy Guide teases.
