Page dedicated Ya Mar to "Malcolm." Possum contained a Jägermeister Song quote and Skip to My Lou tease from Trey and a Rhapsody in Blue tease from Page. YEM's vocal jam featured Fish singing what would eventually become Jägermeister Song (this would debut six nights later) and Trey teasing Flash Light. Trey also teased Skip to My Lou in Take the 'A' Train. Bowie contained a Jägermeister Song quote, Birdland teases from Trey and Mike, and Miss Gulch / Witch's theme teases from Page. Terrapin featured Fish on trombone.
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).

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.
