Jam chart entries
Twist

-> from Carini and with crunching power chords, this "Twist" initially wades in familiar waters with its emphasis on the upbeat bluesy song structure. Midway through, the band enters a slightly different movement that is more apt to trills and melody, not too dissimilar from a good "Gin." From here, the band strolls down a multifarious valley constructed on the infinite possibilities of Phish. A 3.0 "hose" climax awaits before > to "Piper."

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

Setlist notes

Don't Bogart That Joint was last played on October 31, 2010 (238 shows). Piper featured Trey on Marimba Lumina and Mike on keyboards. The third set and encore featured James Casey on saxophone, Natalie Cressman on trombone, Jennifer Hartswick on trumpet, and Andres Forero on percussion with Jeff Tanski also on keyboards for Petrichor and Natalie and Jennifer adding vocals to Petrichor and No Men In No Man's Land. Petrichor through Suzy featured dancers on stage. During Petrichor the dancers had umbrellas and water marbles fell from above. Auld Lang Syne was accompanied by recorded cat and dog noises as cat and dog balloons and raindrop-shaped stress ball fell from the ceiling.
