Jam chart entries
Divided Sky

Minor flubs in the composed section notwithstanding, a very good jam segment, and long for 3.0.

Back on the Train

Crescendo-oriented jam, but this one has a false peak followed by bigger exclamation point.

Down with Disease

Phenomenal improvisation. Dark, bright, introspective, spacious, beautiful, powerful, riveting - all applicable descriptors for this far-ranging, exploratory and must-hear version. > to "Twenty Years Later."

Carini

Righteous, improvisational version bucks the recent trend of mode-shifting to an upbeat groove, instead sticking to dark and eerie themes that evoke a Pink Floyd-like sentiment. Very exploratory, must-hear material.

Slave to the Traffic Light

Great Mike/Trey interplay early in the jam, a serene middle, and soaring finale to end a very strong 2nd set.

Harry Hood

Great interplay, but what really stands out is varied and well-executed soloing by Trey as this "Hood" builds up power.

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

Setlist notes

Runaway Jim contained a DEG tease from Trey. My Friend did not contain the "Myfe" ending. Down with Disease contained a Woman from Tokyo tease from Trey and was unfinished. Slave and Hood contained Little Drummer Boy teases from Page.
