🔁 Tweezer Reprise closes the Tweezer from October 29, 2016
This Tweezer Reprise closes the Tweezer played October 29, 2016 at MGM Grand Garden Arena — 3 shows earlier, no Tweezer tonight.

Page teased The Little Drummer Boy in Golden Age. Trey teased The Line in Simple. The Tweezer Reprise Jam's lyrics were changed to "Your trip is short." Trey teased Tweezer Reprise at the end of the return to Martian Monster.

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.
