- Trey teases Shine in Runaway Jim
- Subtle and unconfirmed Fire on the Mountain tease towards the end of Drowned
- Third set opened with the Phish Time Factory machine. All four band members dressed as scientists playing with synths while lights flashed and Van de Graaff generators zapped. Fish was lifted up in a bed as Father Time and was reborn as the Baby New Year
- First performance of Sanity since June 24, 1994 (147 shows)
- Trey thanks the audience for a "great year" before the encore
- Widely considered one of the greatest Phish shows ever performed
