Jam chart entries
Divided Sky

An inspired, full power yet nimbly executed version. Like a great "Slave" or "Hood," you can really hear Trey and the band pour their hearts into this one.

Simple

Glorious version that, while not departing particularly far from the typical "Simple" structure, does have a unique closing coda-like structure that almost sounds like a new song. Rave reviews from fans.

Makisupa Policeman

> from "Sally," a version so chill you just might believe Trey did, indeed, get up from the sofa after rolling himself a blunt. Fish's kick-drum "solo" bleeds into hushed, atmospheric play, the four swapping scattershot sounds and eerie effects before a pure and patient -> into "Bowie."

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

Setlist notes

Reba did not have the whistling ending. Round Room was played for the first time since July 13, 2003 (140 shows). Twist contained Manteca quotes from Trey. Makisupa included the lyrics "I went home late last night after doing the New Year's stunt, laid back on my couch and rolled myself a blunt" and also featured a "kick drum solo." Frankenstein featured Page on keytar.
