Jam chart entries
Backwards Down the Number Line

First "BDTNL" to go "Type II" in a big way. The jam begins with a dark undertone, but then gets more upbeat and rocking. A settled section with building energy follows and > to "Carini."

Also Sprach Zarathustra

A silky slow groover. Second jam really shines. What it lacks in energy it makes up for with jazziness and improv.

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

Setlist notes

This show featured the first Paul and Silas since November 29, 1998 (211 shows).  Trey explained that Paul and Silas was “sort of a request” for a fan he met the night before.  This show marked the debut of Windy City, which Trey indicated the band had been waiting to debut in Chicago.
