Jam chart entries
Wilson

The evil king teams up with the ugly pig for this tease filled version from the famous "Guyutica" show.

Run Like an Antelope

Arguably the most improvisational version in 15 years, with multiple sections and "Guyute" teases taboot. Fish is critical here in promoting shifts in the rhythmic structure throughout the jam. Check it out!

Split Open and Melt

This version bookends an improvisational "SOAM" -> "Have Mercy" > "Piper" -> "SOAM," one of the best jams of 2010. The "SOAM" jam quickly shifts into a quiet, dreamy, major mode section before the segue, then cleans up after "Piper."

Have Mercy

Part of an improvisational "SOAM" -> "Have Mercy" > "Piper" -> "SOAM," one of the best jams of 2010. "Have Mercy" includes some improvisational and very upbeat jamming beyond the standard.

Piper

Good jam in this version, part of a "SOAM-Have Mercy-Piper-SOAM" sandwich. "BOAF" tease.

Split Open and Melt

Completes the "SOAM" -> "Have Mercy" > "Piper" -> "SOAM" sandwich.

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

Setlist notes

Wolfman's included a vocal jam, as well as a Streets of Cairo tease from Trey. The "dry ice factory" line in Cities was changed to "Genesee factory." Bowie featured Guyute teases throughout the intro, as well as several sections of Wilson jamming with Guyute lyrics during the song proper. Wilson, Saw it Again and Antelope all included Guyute teases from Trey, and Page also teased Guyute at the very end of Antelope (This show is referred to by many fans as "Guyutica"). The Antelope intro also contained Wilson and Nellie Kane teases from Mike. Wilson also had its lyric changed to "I must inquire Guyute" and Trey teased Guyute instead of saying "Marco Esquandolas" in Antelope. Piper contained Birds of a Feather teases. This show was officially released as Live In Utica.
