Date Song City Timing Notes
1995-11-18 Slave North Charleston, SC 10:51 This one starts peaking just before 8:00 and continues building, with one or more false peaks before the final ending.
1995-11-18 YEM North Charleston, SC 30:20 Must-hear! Among the very best. "Brick House" jam!
1996-10-27 SOAMule North Charleston, SC 7:34 Page > Trey vocal/guitar >Page on piano and Trey vocal/guitar together > Percussion -> Mike sings "Catapult" > Page plays "Catapult" on Theremin -> klezmer > Mike chanting > finale.
1996-10-27 Catapult North Charleston, SC 2:07 -> in from "SOAMule." "Catapult" is played in the middle of a crazed Mule Duel. -> back to "Mule."
1996-10-27 SOAMule North Charleston, SC 2:41 -> in from "Catapult" to complete this crazy "Mule."
1996-10-27 Taste North Charleston, SC 7:31 First version with a "Norwegian Wood" (the Beatles) tease, although this one did not signify the end of the jam section. In the future, much debate would ensue over the chordal riff signaling the song's conclusion - "NICU" (which this riff MOST CLEARLY RESEMBLES part of the melody of), "Norwegian Wood," and later, "What's The Use" all entering the discussion.
2010-10-16 C&P North Charleston, SC 15:01 Opening a killer 2nd set in Charleston, this one is a straight-up rocker! After a blazing jam, they hit another vocal refrain before dipping into a spacier jam. Then they build back into another vocal refrain, after which they make a move for a funkier jam before hitting one final spacier passage.
2010-10-16 2001 North Charleston, SC 8:20 Excellent high energy version with a few outstanding minutes from Page in the second jam.
2016-10-14 Tube North Charleston, SC 6:22 The band pivots from the typical funk vamp and reaches a rocking conclusion led by Trey in this verison.
2019-12-06 Destiny North Charleston, SC 9:50 > from "I Been Around." Trey plays a note at the 4:48 mark that indicates this version will be different than previous iterations. Mike takes the lead on the full band jam, coupled with soaring play from Trey. While the return to the song isn't the cleanest, it can be overlooked due to the song finally getting taken for the proverbial ride.
2019-12-06 Scents and Subtle Sounds North Charleston, SC 18:48 Fire jam, with Trey out front, confident and in control. A tease-seeker's paradise, Trey hints at "Suzy," "Axilla," and who knows how many other sounds. Play reminiscent of "Sparks" gives way to a full spaciousness typical of the band's best playing, with the four working as one, in lieu of yielding room - wonderful. Mike's seismic line signals a shift to darker, stormier terrain which calms before brightening into more teasing, fun stop/start jamming, super percussion, and funky Page. > "No Quarter." Mission Accomplished.
2019-12-06 LxL North Charleston, SC 13:15 Around 4:45, the playing peels away from typical "LxL," becoming more rocking at first, then mellowing into a jazzy groove with moments of brightness. The energy and intensity builds, with strong Mike and Fish, before Fish starts singing "This Old Man" and the playing transitions > "The Lizards".
2019-12-07 C&P North Charleston, SC 12:39 Briefly swerves into major-key goodness, then wanders into hazy synth-laden space, before Trey taps into the holiday spirit with a "Little Drummer Boy"-infused jam. The jam takes on a gnarled and heavy-metal feel, then > into "Dirt".
2019-12-07 Cool Amber and Mercury North Charleston, SC 9:21 Stretches slightly beyond its usual confines with a pleasant jam which finds a darker direction in the final minute before > "Melt".
2019-12-07 SOAMelt North Charleston, SC 12:28 Rearranged and redefined, "Melt" anchors another second set, with the band forgoing speed, tension and release in favor of using the song, following a nice composed section, as a blank canvas to create a creepy, ethereal, "soundscape". Fish's work on the Marimba Lumina is particularly eerie, before "Little Drummer Boy" teasing and a return to "Crosseyed and Painless" offers relief from droning (yet musical) fright-rock.
2019-12-07 C&P North Charleston, SC 1:10 > from "SOAM", the band briefly jams before dropping back into "Melt" to stick the landing.
2019-12-07 SOAMelt North Charleston, SC 1:00 > from "Crosseyed and Painless", the band returns to stick the landing. This, then, before a wonderful "A Life Beyond the Dream".
2025-07-11 The Final Hurrah North Charleston, SC 11:34 Big, exuberant version brings lots to love by way of both exploratory and celebratory play that is light on samples and heavy on jamming.
2025-07-11 DwD North Charleston, SC 34:11 > from (a slow version of) "Llama". Another huge, latter-day "Disease". The band stays in attack at the beginning of the jam with Mike and Trey each taking turns leading before Page comes banging in on the piano for his. Around 19:00, the jam briefly takes a respite before Trey's melodic play continues the journey. Things build and build and build and build until a glorious peak, followed by a return to the song proper and then > into "Twist".
2025-07-11 Sightless Escape North Charleston, SC 17:03 Sets a new standard for "Sightless Escape" with a lengthy exploration of the song's groove before eventually turning bright and sunny buoyed by synths and then -> "CDT".
2025-07-12 Moma North Charleston, SC 14:09 After the standard outro the band drops into a laid-back '97-style funk groove fueled by the classic ingredients of wah-guitar, clav, and siren loop before flirting with major for a more contemporary sound and building moderately in the final minutes.
2025-07-12 Destiny North Charleston, SC 8:53 Nearly six years later, at the same scene of the last jammed-out "Destiny", the tune once again goes for an extended ride. An "I'm A Man" tease galvanizes a brief, extra passage of full band hard rockin' grooves before returning to the song's regular conclusion.
2025-07-12 Weekapaug North Charleston, SC 8:19 Immediately goes minor at the jam's outset then spends some time in the customary "Weekapaug" style before returning to minor with synthy funk led by Page.
2025-07-12 Mercury North Charleston, SC 19:15 Sparkling play from Page helps lead the band out of "Mercury" proper into a cool, laid back jam. The jam progressively gets more upbeat and energetic, before dropping into a funk breakdown and eventually > into "Soul Planet".
2025-07-12 Soul Planet North Charleston, SC 12:15 There's no time wasted in this all killer, no filler jam, which gets especially gnarly after 8:00 when it develops a mean streak and goes screaming through space to a supernova conclusion.
2025-07-12 Hood North Charleston, SC 14:32 The intro here finally gets a little extra attention but as usual the real action comes later and right away it's clear that both band and crowd are primed to pop as the jam cascades and sparkles effervescently and bubbles over with abundance and abandon. It feels very good indeed.
2025-07-12 I Am the Walrus North Charleston, SC 6:57 This psychedelic set closing version gets a gratuitous extra helping of yellow matter custard and that special weirdness that makes Phish covering The Beatles in 2025 such a mind warping and revelatory experience in the last year of the first quarter of the 21st century.
2025-07-13 Wolfman's North Charleston, SC 15:04 The Wolfman surfs in on a van fueled by Trey's slick blues licks laid over a road bed of rhythmic funk that grooves and bumps along a linear trajectory without detours headed straight for peak town and delivering a tight and satisfying package.
2025-07-13 Thread North Charleston, SC 10:46 "Thread" finally delivers on its initial improvisational promise with a knotty ,urgent exploration. Using its odd meter as a launch point, the jam holds tight to the bar line, with Trey, Mike and Page's effects-laced play creating a dense landscape that grows tenser and slightly dissonant as it moves along. The howling refrain of "You're Alone!" emerges from the morass of sound to close it out.
2025-07-13 Tweezer North Charleston, SC 29:48 Leaves the station after a bit of funk, coalescing around a spacey synth section over which Trey solos melodically. The jam then seems poised to return home at 15:00, but relaunches with more rugged riffing before eventually closing strongly with a celebratory peak and the reemergence of the "Tweezer" riff which unravels -> "Ghost".
2025-07-13 Golden Age North Charleston, SC 15:55 A spirited, high-energy take that is particularly dominated by Trey and Page's nimble play early on. The syncopated jazz-funk-isms that are familiar to "Golden Age" are particularly tight here and inspired as this feel eventually rides to an anthemic major-key rock out. This then builds to a lovely peak before the "Golden Age" beat barges in to wrap it up.
