From the stage4 moments
Harpua · Harpua meanders through town until he comes face to face with Poster Nutbag. Suddenly, a car drives by taking no notice of the animals. The two of them coil their bodies into deadly arches preparing for a fight.

“TREY: Good evening and welcome to Nectar's. This is Nectar's! This is Page! This is Mike! This is Fish! This is Trey! This is the story of Harpua. Harpua was a mean, ugly dog. [clown horn honks] Anyway, one day Harpua was …”

Happy Birthday to You · Played for "Christa" and "Jen."

Icculus · Icculus amassed all the writings of the great thinkers in the Helping Friendly Book, but Wilson stole it because he was an asshole

“TREY: Icculus. The great prophet. Does everybody know who Icculus is? [crowd yells] No? Hold on, we'll tell you who Icculus is. Well you see a long time ago, thousands of years ago, there lived a great man. He was the one who …”

Fly Famous Mockingbird · Trey cuts to the meat of the story, assuming many of the folks already knew the build up, and then gives a brief intro to Icculus before breaking into Forbin>Bird proper

“TREY: Well, it's time to go back to the magical land. That's right, Gamehendge. Since a lot of you already know most of this story, I will skip the begining and we'll move to the middle. At this point in our story, Colonel …”

Happy birthday was performed in a "dub style" and was played for "Christa" and "Jen." The recording in circulation cuts in the middle of AC/DC Bag; this setlist may be incomplete.

Bustouts and debuts are Phish.net’s gap on the row. Version rankings and “hot this year” are counted over the shows in THIS archive — not all of history until the backfill finishes — and lengths are phish.in’s timings. Rarities use Phish.net’s all-time play count; long odds are shows played since the song’s debut divided by its plays (see the rarity index on LizardStats).

Straight off the phish.in timings, longest first. What this can’t tell you yet is whether any of these is a big version — that needs each song’s own history to compare against, which is the next thing to pull in. After that: phish.in publishes a jam-start marker per track, so the composed section and the improvisation can be separated and measured properly. That’s what belongs in this tube.
