¹ Sung by "Rocco" to Trey's sister, Kristy.

Happy Birthday was sung by “Rocco” to Trey’s sister, Kristy. Possum included Fishin' Hole (aka The Andy Griffith Show theme) teases. The band asked the audience several times if anyone could give them a ride back to Burlington, as their van broke down on the road to Philadelphia. As with the encore the night before, Trey introduced Fish as “The King of Prussia.”

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.
