Jam chart entries
Ya Mar

A cool little jam develops with Trey plucking staccato notes, Fish rocking the wood blocks, and Mike playing way up high.

Frankie Says

A somewhat dark and low intensity groove with a swirling sense and cool effects from Page develops as the typical "Frankie Says" concludes and -> to "David Bowie."

Runaway Jim

Unusual, somewhat ineffable version, which features more by way of wide-open spaces than compact, in-your-face jamming. Trey's 1998 style and tone is clearly on display, and the band does eventually coalesce to enter a bit more by way of a rocking, extended jam (listen for Page's interesting, and varied, contributions) which, in time, > for "Moma Dance".

Piper

A nice building intro leads to a hard rocking straightforward "Piper" jam until 13:40, when the jam mellows into a nice low-key and rhythmic groove with delay loops. > to "2001."

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

Setlist notes

Bowie included Stash teases.
