¹ Charlie Chan and Simpsons signals.
² Vocal jam based on "pubic hair in your Coke."
³ Two Charlie Chan signals and Simpsons and Oom Pa Pa signals in intro.
⁴ Without microphones.
Chalk Dust contained Charlie Chan and Simpsons signals and the David Bowie intro contained two Charlie Chan signals as well as Simpsons and Oom Pa Pa signals. There was also a quick Dave's Energy Guide tease by Trey near the end of the song. The YEM vocal jam was based on "pubic hair in your coke," a reference to the day's earlier testimony by Anita Hill in the Clarence Thomas hearings . Adeline was performed without microphones.
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.
