I Didn't Know featured Fish on the Madonna washboard. Reba did not have the whistling ending. The Secret Language Instructions featured the introductions of the Simpsons, Random Note, All Fall Down, Turn Turn Turn, and Aw Fuck! signals. Antelope contained a Simpsons signal and Runaway Jim contained a Random Note signal. Antelope and Buried Alive contained Jean Pierre teases from Trey. During the pause in Guelah, Trey joked about getting into a fight with a parking garage security guard in Pittsburgh earlier in the day. Trey sang the verses of Fee through a megaphone.

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.
