Jam chart entries
Tube

"Did they jam out Tube?" YES. Witness the beginning of a new era of abundant "Tube" jams with this version, which, at the time, was one of the most improvisational versions to date, as it moves from funk to a hard-rocking groove with a big peak.

Also Sprach Zarathustra

A slightly extended intro features a killer mu-tron "California Love" jam. Some off-kilter playing from Trey during the second half.

Harry Hood

Trey modifies his tone early on to great effect, and solos quite strikingly. As the power grows, Fish, Page and Mike serve to colorfully and dramatically paint a wonderful, Trey-penned sketch. The powerful peak leaves everyone feeling good, and underscores why we all love this band so much.

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

Setlist notes

Mike teased Whipping Post at the end of the first Ass Handed. Reba did not contain the whistling ending. California Love was teased and quoted in Wolfman's and teased in 2001. Trey teased I'm a Man (Spencer Davis Group) in Twist. WOTC contained a Streets of Cairo tease. Carini contained Ass Handed quotes and Tweezer Reprise's lyrics were substituted for Ass Handed lyrics.
