Jam chart entries
Party Time

Really solid and extended straightforward jamming with great Page and Trey.

Split Open and Melt

One could argue that they dick around and waste several minutes in the land of "meh." But after the 8:00 mark, this one suddenly gets pretty damn solid with some good old fashioned tension and dissonance. Hell, even throw in a little chaos.

Kill Devil Falls

Intense "Type I" jamming continues after the final lyrics before dipping into some darker playing that quickly brightens before ending with a -> to "MFMF."

Piper

Multi-dimensional, very high quality jamming. "Piper" has come back a long way since '09. > to "Free."

Harry Hood

A very well played version overall, but the ending section in particular is extremely powerful.

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

Setlist notes

La Grange was played for the first time since September 22, 1999 (303 shows). Twist contained a brief In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida tease from Trey, Kill Devil Falls included a Jeopardy! theme tease, and Hood contained a Kung quote. My Friend My Friend did not contain the "Myfe" ending. YEM contained a Flashlight tease from Mike and teases of the theme to Sanford and Son in the vocal jam.
