I Didn't Know featured Fish on trombone. The Bowie intro contained two  Charlie Chan  signals as well as Oom Pa Pa and Simpsons signals. The lyrics to Gin were altered to reference a hot tub, referencing some friends who had partied at the hotel hot tub earlier that day. Harpua included On Top of Old Smokey teases from Mike. La Bamba was teased in the first HYHU and after the second HYHU. Whipping Post (first since November 26, 1990, or 111 shows) featured Fish on vocals, his hilariously inept debut on fretless guitar, and a Take Me Out to the Ballgame tease from Fish.

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.
