From the stage1 moment
Fly Famous Mockingbird · Epic narration follows the audience after it is liquefied into a gooey clump of water dripping through the floorboards into the basement, and eventually into the Mighty Mississippi, which takes them to the Gulf of Mexico, deeper and deeper, past a volcano, passed by a submarine, before flowing through a cave into Gamehendge, where the journey continues

“TREY: As we stand here, we can feel something strange starting to happen out there in the crowd. [unintelligible]... everything, something to our knees. Everybody is starting to feel a little bit wobbly here, a little bit kind …”

transcript: phish.in

The Mockingbird narration contained an Iron Man tease from Mike and a Wilson tease from Page. Bowie included Simpsons and All Fall Down signals and Hood contained an Aw Fuck! signal. Trey and Page teased Long Tall Glasses in Possum. Carolina was performed without microphones. Faht featured Fish on acoustic guitar. 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.
