Jam chart entries
Limb By Limb

Strong interplay between Trey and Page, good syncopation, and solid Fish working like glue to hold it all together results in a quality performance.

Steam

Really nice band interplay between verses, then a heavy fog rolls over the post-verses jam, almost "Echoes"-like in nature. Very cool effects from Trey and Page here. Strong version, especially for a first set.

Golden Age

A multi-section, "Type II" behemoth which covers a lot of ground and peaks twice in the process. > to "Simple". Longest version to date.

Light

Moving beyond some rocking and melodic action in the instrumental section, the jam breaks into some swirling and rhythmic play, before settling into some excellent brooding, probing and charged intergalactic space.

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

Setlist notes

Trey teased San-Ho-Zay during No Men In No Man's Land and Sand in Golden Age. Simple contained a Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now tease from Trey and Page. Dogs Stole Things was played for the first time since June 17, 2012 (182 shows). Beauty of My Dreams was played for the first time since December 31, 2010 (227 shows). Crimes of the Mind was played for the first time since November 29, 2009 (283 shows).
