Jam chart entries
Twist

This "Twist" gets Weir'd from the beginning as the (new) band continues getting their sea legs, but once things get rolling, they stay Weir'd throughout in the best way possible. Not the deepest version ever, but must-hear nonetheless.

Playing in the Band

The only Phish version of "Playing in the Band" marks the peak of Bob Weir's Nashville sit-in. Upbeat and melodic, this jam serves as a nice reprisal of Trey's GD50 work.

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

Soundcheck

Jam, Blues Jam, Tide Turns, Petrichor, Walking Blues

Setlist notes

Limb By Limb's lyrics were changed to "left is how we felt the Bern" in reference to Vermont senator Bernie Sanders. This show featured the Phish debuts of Samson and Delilah and Playing in the Band. West L.A. Fadeaway was last played October 6, 2000 (383 shows). Samson and Delilah through Playing in the Band featured Bob Weir on guitar. Weir also sang vocals on Samson and Delilah and Miss You through Quinn the Eskimo. The soundcheck's Blues Jam featured a verse of Funky Bitch from Trey and Walking Blues featured Weir on vocals.
