Jam chart entries
Back on the Train

Another great version from 2003 with a segue into "Divided Sky."

Tweezer

Long, spacey jam in the middle of upbeat "tweezeresque" jamming.

Makisupa Policeman

This has a more active jam than most, with some lead organ by Page and a Trey solo four minutes in that is based on "Dust in the Wind." A strong version overall.

Limb By Limb

Similar in some respects to the 6/30/99 version. This one also has a somewhat downbeat sentiment, which is unusual. But it's well-played with the crisp work typical of a quality "Limb."

Run Like an Antelope

Jam breaks into an upbeat, major mode groove from 5:00 - 7:30 before returning to standard "Antelope."

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

Setlist notes

The lyrics to Makisupa referenced a member of Phish’s security team, Jim Tobin, being arrested, as well as the name of Phish’s chief of security, John Langenstein. Makisupa also included a Dust in the Wind tease, prompting Trey to challenge the audience to name the song that was teased and call Mike’s hotline to win “some kind of crazy prize, like a date with Fish or something.” Trey forgot the lyrics to Cavern, and after stumbling a bit, asked Page to take over. Cavern also included an AC/DC Bag tease. Contact contained a Dixie tease from Trey.
