“TREY: When i look out here in front of all you people, i see that you are all standing on this rink. When you walked in here, this rink had cement underneath the floor, but as we played the first three songs, unbeknownst to all …”
I Didn't Know featured Fish on trombone. Possum included Simpsons, All Fall Down, Random Note, and Aw Fuck! signals, as well as teases of Rocky Mountain Way, L.A. Woman, China Grove, It’s Ice, and Divided Sky. Coil included the crowd singing Happy Birthday to Page. Trey teased Avenu Malkenu in Brother. Page teased Happy Birthday (twice), "Charge!," and Call to the Post in the Love You intro as Fish announced birthdays in the band and introduced the crew. Love You also contained Lonesome Cowboy Bill teases from Page. This show is available as an archival release on LivePhish.com.
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.
