¹ Phish debut.
“PAGE: I'm happy FISH: [Whimpering sounds] TREY: It's okay. Hold it together now.”
“TREY: [Offers Page a towel to dry his tears] PAGE: [Shakes head] I'm happy FISH: [Feigns crying] TREY: You okay, Fish? FISH: I'm okay. TREY: Hold it together, man. Keep it together.”
Box of Rain made its Phish debut after the passing of Phil Lesh earlier in the day. Mike teased the bass line from Shakedown Street in Free and The Howling. Carol of the Bells was teased in Piper. Tweezer contained an I Know You Rider tease from Mike and a Theme from Quincy M.E. tease from Trey. This show was a benefit for Divided Sky Foundation.
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.
