¹ Fast version.
YEM was preceded by two unknown jazz songs featuring the band as a trio with Trey on drums because Fish was absent. Fish arrived during the second jazz song and played trombone. This version of Sanity was the fast version. I Didn't Know was subsequently followed by a medley that included portions of Killer Joe, Low Rider, Back in Black, Godzilla, and Iron Man, as well as a rap funk. It is possible that this medley took place on 3/14/89. Free Bird was played for the first time since March 6, 1987 (155 shows). The third set was pieced together from Mike's notes and the source of this setlist is phish.com.
It’s so stupendous, living in this tube
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).
No verified lengths yet — phish.in’s recording lands the morning after, and the list fills in then.
