    • Trey said something to the effect of: “Hey, Kevin, there’s a post-able version of ‘Wilson.’ Ladies and gentlemen, the Shortest ‘Wilson’ Ever! I’d like to dedicated that to our archivist, Kevin Shapiro… And now: the longest ‘Bittersweet Motel’ ever - I’m kidding!” Then the crowd started an enormous chant for ‘Fluffhead.’ After conferring with the band, Trey said, “Mike says no” - and the band launched into ‘Mike’s Song’; ** - with massive glowstick war; ^ - Phish played the song in the background as the winners from the ‘100th Running of the First Annual Runaway Jim 5K’ were brought up on stage and announced by Trey with photos on the video screen (the women’s second-place finisher was actually Trey’s neighbor “from right down the road” and the men’s winner, from nearby Presque Isle, had a time of 15min for the 5k); ^^ - after the “downshift,” Trey thanks the crew and the crowd; when the band returns to the song, they skip the “Rye rye rocco/Marco/Spike” lyrics section; # - with fireworks behind the stage during the close of the song

This Ghost is teh tits as they once would say.
