From the stage1 moment
Icculus · If there's a connection between Icculus and OJ Simpson, rely on Trey to find it. He open the narration by referencing the last time Phish was in the area, which turned out to be the OJ show. Trey says that watching the Bronco reminded him of life, which of course encouraged him to make one of his famous book recommendations.

“TREY: Thanks. I just want to say, before we go on any further what a great night we had tonight and how much fun we had. I mean, we really love playing here. I don't know, some of you might have been at that gig in Milwaukee we …”

transcript: phish.in

Trey sang the verses of Fee through a megaphone. If I Could through Dooley featured the “Reverend” Jeff Mosier. Little Tiny Butter Biscuits through Dooley were performed acoustic. Reba did not have the whistling ending. This show marked the end of Mosier’s travels with the band and featured the Phish debut of Dooley. Icculus recalled the infamous “O.J. Show” from June of that same year. The soundcheck's second If I Could featured Mosier on banjo.

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.
