| 1999-07-20 | Toronto, Ontario, Canada | 24:21 | Jam is groovy, punchy, upbeat and peaks well, but the vocal jam is atypically melodic and percussive, and even pleasing to the ears. |
| 1999-09-17 | Mountain View, CA | 21:53 | "YEM" jam with PHIL LESH! (No B&D, no VJ) -> to a Mike and Phil bass "Jam." |

| 2000-06-09 | Shibuya-ku, Tokyo, Japan | 23:04 | Deeeep, funky jam/groove, and the return of the B&D segment! |
| 2000-06-15 | Chuo-ku, Osaka, Japan | 24:26 | Very odd, atypical Trey noodling in the jam. Weird version to be sure. The B&D starts up meekly, but then dies out to nothing quickly. And eventually out of the nothing (silence), there's barely audible vocal jamming, that increases in volume... and they end the VJ by harmonizing on the word "Puppies." (Trey tries not to laugh) Must hear? You be the judge. |
| 2000-06-22 | Antioch, TN | 21:11 | EXCELLENT jam segment. |
| 2000-07-06 | Toronto, Ontario, Canada | 20:00 | Hypnotic, repetitive jam that leads into vocal jamming (no final WUDMTF lyrics). |
| 2000-07-15 | Columbus, OH | 19:59 | This jam is why some people hate jambands. A noodle factory. (but I still dig it) The jam just segues into the VJ (no WUDMTF lyrics). (No B&D.) |

| 2003-12-01 | Albany, NY | 23:58 | An order of magnitude better than the typical "YEM" since 2003, a strong jam segment peaks excellently, not once but TWICE, before the bass and drums section kicks in. |

| 2010-06-13 | Hershey, PA | 21:14 | Excellent peak in the jam and Mike is awesome!! |
| 2010-07-02 | Charlotte, NC | 22:19 | "Fuck Your Face" teases (Trey; Mike in B&D); "Moving in Stereo" tease (Trey): Vocal jam included portions of "Proud Mary" and "Get Back," along with "Dong Work for Yuda" and "Slow Ride" quotes. |
| 2010-12-31 | New York, NY | 10:47 | Short, but very fun. "Manteca" sandwich and goofiness everywhere. Trey briefly cracks up at start of vocal jam when Mike says "Crab in my shoemouth" instead of WUDMTF. |
| 2010-12-31 | New York, NY | 6:04 | -> in from "Manteca" to continue this short but fun "YEM." |
| 2011-08-16 | Chicago, IL | 21:20 | Trey finishes the vocal jam with Darth Vader's line, "I am your father, Luke." |
| 2011-12-29 | New York, NY | 18:54 | Very good jam with a strong peak, albeit short. |
| 2013-07-14 | Columbia, MD | 21:18 | Although the jam is strong, there is no real peak...but at least Trey plays his guitar instead of his pitch shifter! |
| 2013-10-29 | Reading, PA | 22:25 | Intricate jam segment where the band members play off each other quite well, and a decent peak to the jam. |
| 2014-07-05 | Saratoga Springs, NY | 21:01 | Lots of Mike in the groovy jam segment (though there's no peak). |
| 2014-11-02 | Las Vegas, NV | 26:08 | While there's no Trey-led jam nor even a Bass & Drums section, the full band contributes, especially Page, to a raging improvisation that culminates with everyone on drums before the vocal jam concludes the festivities. |
| 2015-07-25 | Inglewood, CA | 20:42 | Gimmicky version where Trey and Mike spooned eachother while playing each other's instruments. (see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5mK05T5cYdE). A phun time was had by some. |
| 2017-08-06 | New York, NY | 24:01 | Fiery jam segment with Trey really tearing it up. Mike teases "Izabella" during B&D, leading to a very cool full-band tease. The vocal jam includes quotes of songs previously played during the Baker's Dozen. |
| 2021-08-15 | Atlantic City, NJ | 19:28 | Deploying the echoplex and envelope filter during the WUDMTF segment, Trey seemed to signal that this would be an atypically strong version, and it proved to be: he melodically soared during the jam segment, with excellent accompaniment from Fish, Mike and Page. |
| 2021-10-24 | Inglewood, CA | 23:57 | While Trey isn't perfect in the opening composed section, the BMGS, WUDMTF, and tramps sections are good, but the jam is awe-inspiring, with distinct sections. It begins in traditional YEM jam segment fashion, smooth and funky, but with more swing than usual. And when Trey begins soloing using the envelope filter, it builds to a sweet-yet-modest peak before mellifluously mellowing into a groove, an interlude that coasts along wondrously for several minutes before COOKING! You can't not dance in the concluding few mins of the jam, which segues masterfully into a SIIIIICK Mike and Fish, Bass and Drums, section before the vocal jam begins, and the VJ is delightfully short and segues into Moma Dance. MORE YEMS LIKE THIS PLEASE. (And yes Mike repeatedly teases the "Things That Make You Go Hmm" bass line in the first section of the jam, but we don't note him teasing that in the setlists, since he began doing it regularly in YEM in summer 1998.) |
| 2021-12-31 | Lititz, PA | 21:35 | An unprecedented version. Although the opening composed section is loose, and the jam segment is quite smooth and perfunctory, and the "bass and drums" segment is relatively straightforward, the "vocal jam" section begins unaccompanied as it ordinarily would, but soon becomes, in effect, a "second jam" if you will, with Fish in particular scatting during its opening minute. This jam cooks and soars, with Trey deploying the echoplex for several minutes over magnificent accompaniment by Mike, Page and Fish, before the groove mellifluously melts into --> "Frankie Says." |
| 2022-06-04 | Noblesville, IN | 23:55 | Among the slowest versions in Phish history, this version grooves along admirably but really cooks after two mins of vocal jamming, when Trey and Fish begin a second jam segment, which "goes type II" before seguing into "A Wave Of Hope." |
| 2022-07-22 | Bethel, NY | 24:17 | The ongoing "YEM" revolution of '21-22 continues in the idyllic setting of Bethel Woods. After a competent if not perfect composed section, the band delivers a potent Type 1 romp in the post-tramps jam. This then gives way to a lively, if brief Drums and Bass section with Mike slathering edgy distortion all over the place. A brief vocal jam ensues, followed by Trey picking up his guitar and building a 60s soul-esque groove out of the VJ ether. This builds to an uplifting, spirited jam with multiple Trey-led peaks. |
| 2022-08-02 | Cuyahoga Falls, OH | 20:10 | This early-to-mid-first-set version could not be a more "average-great" version until, only about ~80 seconds into the Vocal Jam, they start playing their instruments and launch into a second jam, during the first minute of which Fish quotes "Strawberry Fields Forever." This second ("type II") jam doesn't last too long but not only is it melodic and soaring, is also concludes with the band launching into "Tube." |
| 2022-08-07 | Atlantic City, NJ | 23:46 | Although Trey is very rough in the opening, he soon recovers, and the version coasts along as per "average-great-normal" until 11:45 of the jam segment when Trey teases "Mr. P.C.," and the jam takes off and eventually reaches a BLISTERING peak. Bass and Drums segment is average-great, and the Vocal Jam is as well, but it's only ~95 seconds long, before (as in other recent versions) a second jam segment begins, in that Fish begins drumming and the others begin playing their instruments in short order, largely mimicking the final measures of the vocal jam during the first few minutes of this second jam segment. This second jam is thrilling, and peaks triumphantly. |
