⁴ Aborted and restarted.
“TREY: Ladies and gentlemen, before we go any further, I just want to make sure everyone's in tune for the rest of the night. There's a special thing that we like to do here, in the Phish from Vermont. Right now we are beginning …”
🕰️ Night 1 of the MSG '92–'96 retrospective — a full 1992-era setlist, Trey in the sleeveless black.
Bustout city: Glide, Cold as Ice — unheard since 5/18/92 — and The Vibration of Life narration, last given voice in 1996, woven into David Bowie. Axilla was played '92-style with no Part II outro; Mike's Song brought the trampolines back, and I Am Hydrogen the bicycle kicks.
Community pulse — called an instant classic, "all-killer, no-filler." Fish's vacuum turn in Love You and the Bouncing Around the Room jam drew special mention.

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.
