Jam chart entries

Mike's Song

Awesome, improvisational version which proves that "Mike's" doesn't have to have 2 jams to kick ass. Immediately breaking into a lilting, un-"Mike's"-like groove, the jam settles down, gets punchy, settles again, all with a sense that tension is loading. The release begins at 13:30, and by 14:30, a melodic hose-storm is unleashed, repleat with "Sweet Emotion" vocal quotes and jamming.

Versions phish.net's jam charts single out as noteworthy.

Setlist notes

Trey teased Super Bad in PYITE. Sofi Dillof made a guest appearance during the Meatstick dance. Mike's Song contained Sweet Emotion quotes and Weekapaug included Macarena teases and quotes. The Hood encore closed with a Meatstick tease.
