playing both.  Then Trey got another guitar so he was playing and holding
3 guitars at once.  Then he ran over and hit Fishman's cymbals.  All the
while Page was kneeling on his bench and banging like mad on his
keyboards.

hear it for Fishman and that inhuman drum beat. He tried it in the 
dress and it didn't work, but it worked in the suit (refering to Fish's 
GQ attire). 

** with vocal jam that did not come out of "Wash Uffitzi Drive Me To 
Firenze"

*** During the final groove Trey thanks Bill Graham Presents for 
setting them up at "such a great venue", and the PHiSH crew "for making 
them sound so good tonight", and most important of all Trey wishes 
happy birthday to Jerry Garcia, "his birthday will be at 12:00". Before 
the wishes Trey teased a few measures of Happy Birthday To You. Trey 
said something to the effect of 'We are going to keep the spirit of 
Jerry alive through the music into the next decade'.

* Before Halleys, the crowd chanted the beginning of Destiny Unbound, 
in hopes the band would play it. Trey acknowledged the chant by saying
that he couldn't hear what was being sung, said that
it sounded like some kind of 'death chant' then asked if this was the
point in the show where they do the human sacrifice.  He then asked for
a volunteer, which was pretty funny.
No Destiny Unbound was played or even teased.

#Very little Jimmy/Posternutbag comment, instead:  Trey's life-changing experience
in the 4th grade (1974, 10years old)...sitting, eating french toast and watching 
Lost in Space (a Saturday morning ritual), Trey realized that Will Robinson and 
the robot were in the same field as the one behind his school and were sending him
telepathic messages, which led to him to collect food and bring it to that field, 
where he found a pentagram, placed the food and saw his own future, including the
band and a figure in white singing (Tom Marshall) though he knew neither.
@Proclaimer's cover (from the "Benny and  Joon" soundtrack), Tom Marshall on vocals.
%With lights down and a glow stick war.

$Before Guyute, Trey explains that they don't know if they have enough time for one
more song, but that there's one more he wants to play...he said they would not encore.
After Guyute, the lights did not go on. Page, Mike, and Fish returned to the stage.
Finally, Trey came on and the encore started.
&Trey has "Toph" (Chris Kuroda) bring the lights down and re-starts the glow stick
war during a delay jam which featured he and Fish in some sort of dance ritual at 
the front of the stage, Fish on vacuum, and then finally just Mike's bass and 
Trey's guitar loop before finishing Frankenstein.
