Jam chartImmediately 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.
Jam chartShortly after 3:00 the jam enters a segment of edgy, heavily-effected play backed by synth bass which culminates with "I'm a Man" teasing before snapping back to typical closing fare.

Too hot to quite enter stop / start play, the band comes close, before Trey breaks to solo. Nimble and spirited, many notes inform play both cerebral and danceable - the best kind of Phish - improvisation, with Fish consistently as ever attacking his kit. With Mike in check, and Page pivoting from keys to piano, Trey alights upon a melody he deems fit to follow. Play cools to pause before, terifficaly, returning to [plus some goofy banter] refrain.Before / afterI Am Hydrogen >ShadeGap2SET 1
