It is the epitome of mournful, worn-out, but beautifully creative jams of 2000.

I'm not sure I'd say he's "leading" it all the way through, but Fish pwns the Oswego Piper.

The Tweezer from 12/16/99, Raleigh, NC. The band is doing a lot of cool stuff, but not necessarily going anywhere, then Fish does a drum fill, and like that, THE HOSE is on full blast.

Yes, Trey is on his drum kit for part of that Jim. Still, it doesn't mean that Fishman isn't leading the jam. NYE 95 is the Johnny B Fishman show. It's really pretty remarkable to listen to

my favorite Fish-led stuff comes from '99-00, the 'phish-tronica' period. check out:- 35min Fluffhead jam from Alpine '99
- ALL of the official Fuji Rock '99 release, specifically the Limb By Limb and 2001 > Bowie
- Gumbo > Llama from Fukuoka, 6/14/00
- 35min Runaway Jim from 7/3/00 (FTA SBD)
Score: 3
fishman kills it in the headphones jam.
Score: 1
Ooh, can't believe I forgot 12/31/99 Roses Are Free. The last 10-15 minutes or so is Fishman basically carrying the band with rhythm. Which makes sense, they had been playing for 7 hours at that point.
Score: 1
Does the Night 2 Island Tour "Piper" jam count. . .? I've been listening to that a lot. It's so quiet and hypnotic in the jam at first, with near primitive interplay, then methodically intensifies into an all out HOSE. Fish. . .oh, Fish. . .
Score: 0
the hour long Runaway Jim is based upon several distinct sections largely differentiated and decided by Fish's drum groove changing. It's hard to say though, because as a drummer I naturally hyper-analyze what Fish is doing and I also think the best Phish jams are all a product of the group functioning as one.
Score: 1
The Mike's Groove from Live Bait 4 springs to my mind. I'm blanking on the date, but it's awesome Fishman.
Score: 0
Vegas 11/13/97 .... check out the Weekapaug. Fishman just dances on the ride. So much so that Trey starts getting off and then they launch into hyperdrive. Very fun listen.
Score: 0
Dunno about "lead" but the Jim from SBIX, when they are announcing the winners of the race - I really like that, its like a tribal style rolling along. I think the Tahoe Light (8.9.2011) has a similar feel.
Score: 0
Not sure if I'd say he's "leading the band," but Fish's work during just about every version of Limb by Limb blows my mind.
Score: 0
Headphones Jam for sure, and maybe 12/2/95 Tweezer. Just seems like Trey and Fish push each other to jam harder
Score: 0
I'd also suggest the week Karl Perrazo sat in during fall tour 96. That 11/2 Crosselope is Fishman paradise!
