This show featured the Phish debuts of Foggy Mountain Breakdown, I'm Blue I'm Lonesome, and My Long Journey Home. Pig in a Pen through Swing Low featured the “Reverend” Jeff Mosier on banjo and vocals, as this show marked the beginning of Mosier’s five-night tour with the band. To France was teased and quoted before Pig in a Pen. I’m Blue I’m Lonesome and My Long Journey Home were also performed acoustic. This version of Chalk Dust appears on A Live One . Tennessee Waltz was played for the first time since May 6, 1993 (142 shows), Pig in a Pen was played for the first time since February 21, 1993 (196 shows), and Swing Low was played for the first time since October 20, 1989 (635 shows). Trey sang the verses of Fee through a megaphone. The soundcheck featured Mosier on all songs and vocals except Funky Bitch.
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.
