¹ Phish debut.
This show marked the Phish debut of Roses Are Free. BBFCFM was for the first time since August 6, 1996 (118 shows) and included Electric Funeral teases from Trey. Blue Monk was teased by Trey in the intro leading into Ghost. Ghost also included Hanky Panky teases from Trey. The soundcheck's Funky Bitch was sung by Trey and Page. Footage from this show appeared in the film Bittersweet Motel .
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.
