¹ What's The Use?
This soundcheck took place on the Field of Heaven stage and preceded Phish's performances at the Fuji Rock Festival. It is currently available on LivePhish.com (along with July 31, 1999) with proceeds benefiting the Japan earthquake relief effort.
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).
No verified lengths yet — phish.in’s recording lands the morning after, and the list fills in then.
