Jam chart entries
Chalk Dust Torture

Good version in which Trey really plays the tension and release card to full effect.

Foam

> in from "Runaway Jim" (old school). Mike and Fish remind us who's really behind the "Foam" in this "teamwork" version.

Limb By Limb

A very different style of jamming for a portion of this version. Sort of "plinko," not really funk, the jam returns to conventional "Limb" playing with an excellent crescendo peak.

Down with Disease

Multi-faceted, improvisational version with mesmerizing, pulsing and triumphant moments. Eventually mellows into good space which regains energy and -> to "Twist."

You Enjoy Myself

Trey finishes the vocal jam with Darth Vader's line, "I am your father, Luke."

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

Setlist notes

During I Didn't Know, Trey and Mike held up t-shirts of Otis Redding for the "Is this a picture of Otis Redding?" lyric. Mexican Cousin contained a Time Loves a Hero tease from Mike. DWD contained a Leave it to Beaver theme tease from Mike and was unfinished. YEM contained Walk This Way teases and the vocal jam contained a Darth Vader quote.
