Jam chart entries
Wolfman's Brother

Some great and varied "Type I" jamming, including melodic playing by Trey, "Manteca"-like jamming from Page, and a cool Mike-led quiet section that builds anticipation for the peak.

Chalk Dust Torture

One of those improvisational jams that seems to mode-shift and otherwise evolve and morph constantly. If you like the "Train Ride to Peaksville" type jam, you may want to pass on this.

Sand

After teasing "Tweezer" at the conclusion of the first jam segment, the music takes on a darkish tone and features staccato funk that becomes increasingly abstract until a > to "Piper."

Mike's Song

The jam immediately breaks into rhythmic and percussive funk-infused groove, very different from the typical "Mike's" jam. While Trey and Page add good color, Fish and Mike are the real stars here, driving the basic groove. Near the end, Trey adds some "Manteca"-like melodies, and the jam then concludes. A cool, unique rendering for any era, especially 3.0.

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

Setlist notes

Trey teased The Munsters theme before Chalk Dust, Tweezer in Sand, and What's The Use? in Piper. The first jam in the soundcheck contained a London Bridge is Falling tease from Mike and the second jam contained Flash Light teases.
