Good call on remembering 12/30/03 although I like it most for the Sand-> Shafty-> NICU segment, a unique sequence that flew under the radar with all the big flashy offerings on display. I believe that was the last version of Tube with a jam as well.

12/30/09 dropped that greatest Back On The Train ever although it also flies under the radar. Only Phish could play a country song that expands to 17 minutes with a spectacular improv segment and place it between Lifeboy & Velvet Sea, HYHU> Love Me> HYHU. Dig that Corrina, What's The Use?, Tela, Gone segment which is more cohesive than it looks at first glance.

12/31/10 had the legit Tweezer-> Light-> Theme segment

Cypress, oh man that 30th was awesome. Mike's sticks in my head the most, but the Limb By Limb, Light Up, Ghost, Antelope, Tweezer-> Taste and Ya Mar are near and dear to me.

98 had a lot of unique things going on as well. Coming out of the gate with Chalkdust, BBFCFM, Wilson is a good bone to toss out when you're planning on penning a love letter to the slow and psychedelic. The first set is a rollercoaster of weird sequencing (Roggae, Sparkle, Moma, Old Home Place in particular feels almost pranky in it's strangeness) but works fairly well.. The Frankie Says-> Maze and an extremely patient 1st set closing Reba are pretty stellar and give a good indication of where the 2nd set's interests will lie: crushing your skull into gelatin. The DWD starts as a flamethrower, spaces out then slowly builds back up before going back into the DWD peak, slightly premature, but less abrupt than a lot of similar DWDs that go type II and return. One of my favorite 'standard' Pipers follows with a nice build and some choice Page. Trey hits some 'next level' riffs in the following Caspian which slowly melts into some pretty ambient space and eventually a spot-on "> " segue into Squirming Coil. The Coil is one of those rare versions where everyone stays on through Page's solo. Some gorgeous Simplesque jamming ensues before turning into a huge wall of noise and a -> into a wonderful Slave. This is the kind of show for people who find the subtle melodic and textural manipulations of 98-04 to be engrossing instead of boring, but the second set's peaks and valleys are so methodically measured that I think it should have appeal to fans of earlier 90s & 3.0 Phish as well.
