From the stage1 moment
Harpua · This version is replete with fun variations on the standard structure -- Jimmy is watching Cam Neely, Trey offers his Stanley Cup predictions, and Harpua's owner is given the moniker "Timber Hole."

“TREY: A long time ago, and far, far away, there lived an evil, mangy mutt named Harpua. Well, Harpua and his owner, who was this evil guy born in the pine barrens and who had gone through a long ancestry with no forks, grew up …”

transcript: phish.in

Chalk Dust Torture and Fee were dedicated to Trey's hero, Boston Bruins star Cam Neely. Tweezer included a Sweet Emotion tease and vocals. Sweet Adeline was performed without microphones. Harpua found Jimmy watching Cam and the Bruins winning the Stanley Cup and contained "Charge!" teases from Page. BBFCFM included a How High the Moon tease from Mike. The Aquarium Rescue Unit was the opening act.

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.
