From the stage2 moments
Chalk Dust Torture · Trey thanks the crowd

“TREY: Thank you everybody, we'll see you tomorrow, thank you, or whatever, yeah, Thursday, Friday.”

transcript: phish.in
Frankenstein · Trey thanks the crowd

“TREY: Thank you so much everybody, we'll se you tomorrow night, thank you. Do one more.”

transcript: phish.in

Page and Trey teased Frankenstein in It's Ice. Cavern was played in a slower, funkier manner than usual. Trey quoted The Well in The Howling. Frankenstein was played for the first time since December 7, 2019 (120 shows) and featured Page on keytar. Slave's lyrics were changed to "see the greatest city."

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.
