Helter Skelter ended with the band singing "I've got blisters on my fingers" a cappella to the tune of Back In My Hometown.The Vibration of Life featured a Wipe Out tease. To France was teased in 2001 and quoted in the YEM vocal jam, foreshadowing the song's Phish debut later in the show. YEM also included Frankenstein teases. I’m Blue I’m Lonesome through My Long Journey Home were performed acoustic; My Long Journey Home featured the “Reverend” Jeff Mosier on spoons. This show marked the first Phish performance of Fixin’ to Die. Both To France and Fixin' To Die featured Mosier on banjo with Mosier also singing lead vocals on Fixin' To Die.
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.
