Jam chart entries
Fee

The verses are flubbed badly but Trey and the band make up for it with a unique jam. It's percussive, funky, and a little goofy, but definitely very Phishy. -> to "Water In The Sky."

Bathtub Gin

Solid jam that starts to break away from "Gin" around 7:30 and gets rocking and funky with building intensity. Great Page.

McGrupp and the Watchful Hosemasters

Despite a couple of rough spots spread throughout, the jam section features a contemplative, but at moments playful Page, with an intense culmination. An iconic '98-style, ambient Trey-led "Jam" follows "McGrupp" proper.

Jam

A Trey-led ambient and serene "Jam" is added to the end of "McGrupp" proper, and has some cool background instrumental effects from the others.

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

Setlist notes

Trey seemed to forget the lyrics to the last verse of Fee and improvised the story as he led the band back into the final chorus. Fee subsequently concluded with an extended jam segment.
