  1. Cavern⁴Alt Lyric6:49

¹ lyric changed to "bask in morning sickness."

² Unfinished.

³ Began as Rocky Top.

⁴ Original, alternate lyrics.

Silent's lyrics were changed to "bask in morning sickness." Character Zero and 2001 were unfinished. Trey teased Black-Eyed Katy and Super Bad in 2001. Poor Heart began as Rocky Top. Cavern included some of the original, alternate lyrics. The Missed Load-In Blues soundcheck was an improvised blues song for a crew member who missed the bus that day. Beauty Of My Dreams was a Makisupa-esque reggae version.

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.
