MYSTERY JAM MONDAY PART 349

Welcome to the 349th edition of Phish.Net's Mystery Jam Monday, the final and most difficult single clipper of October. The winner will receive an MP3 download code courtesy of our friends at LivePhish.com / Nugs.Net. To win, be the first person to identify the song and date of the mystery clip. Each person gets one guess to start – if no one answers correctly in the first 24 hours, a hint will be posted. After the hint, everyone gets one more guess before Wednesday at 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET. Have fun!

Hint: I guess you could say this clip was chosen in homage to Fall Tour having some great first set jams.

Answer: WinRAR! This week, the guessing crew wandered deep into the woods of this cruel joke of an MJM, but only @MikeThong was able to fight his way out thanks to his trusty golf cart. This week, he hits the trifecta by identifying the clip as from the waning moments of the twisted 11/29/98 "Limb by Limb" -> "Catapult" -> "Kung" sequence, played during the first set of the last night of Fall Tour '98 – Twenty Years Later indeed. Stop by Monday, because I ain't givin' no goddamn Loch Ness Monster a LivePhish code for MJM350!

Ugh, Pete, I can't find it. It sounds so familiar, and the hint seems obvious, and I think I have the era right, but I got nuthin'. I'm starting to suspect some deception in the hint...

There is no deception in the hint, I promise.

This jam was played during one of Phish's Fall Tours (not 2018), in the first set.

No tricks in the hint – but the clip is a hard one for sure!

I would love to hear what leads people have been chasing to get this clip.

I feel like an idiot. I looked that Limb over several times... didn’t check the Kung. ::facepalm::

Congrats, dude!

That’s why I thought this one would be super hard - because who sees Kung and thinks “ah yes, that crazy type II Kung jam!”? @mikethong does!)

@stevemott hit the right month presumably without even searching - that’s a solid guess right there

Oh man...great clip, Pete! That was one of the first shows I checked, because Fish's drumming sounded an awful lot like the clip from the Simple in the second set that you used a few weeks ago, and Trey's guitar tone sounded very 97 / 98 to me. But I see a 5 minute Catapult -> Kung, figure there's no way they're going to get to that place, and happily start looking for songs longer than 8 minutes...

Congrats @mikethong. Nice find.

Thanks folks! I was just checking Limbs and Tastes from '97-'99 from the hint and the rhythm of the beat. Wasn't sure if that was even the right track and was close to giving up. Then I just started listening to Catapult>>>Kung for the novelty of it and got lucky to hear the clip start playing!

An ever-continuing thank you to the crew here and all that you do on the site folks!
