MYSTERY JAM MONDAY PART 358

Welcome to the 358th edition of Phish.Net's Mystery Jam Monday, the second of January. While our friend @wforwumbo continues to work towards his final form, I'll be at the helm once again bringing you puzzles with a little help from my fellow MJM Hall of Famers. This week, our clips were selected by the most recent MJMer to enter the Hall of Fame, @lostboy01, who witnessed these clips in person – thanks for the sweet puzzle! 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 songs and date of the mystery clips. These two clips are connected by a theme, but the theme needn't be part of the correct answer. Each person gets one guess to start – if no one answers correctly in the first 24 hours, I'll post a hint. After the hint, everyone gets one more guess before Wednesday at 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET. Good luck!

Hint: Re-read the introduction.

Answer: Congrats to @Patwich on crossing the halfway mark to MJM Emeritus status, snagging his fourth win (with a little help from his friends?). As indicated by the hint, not only did our gracious guest host @lostboy01 attend the show from which this week's clips came, the introductory spiel subtly but clearly calls for identification of the songs and date of the mystery clips – two songs, one date: 12/31/09 "Piper" and 12/31/09 "Ghost." That "Ghost" outro jam really does sound like a callback to the first set's "Bathtub Gin," doesn't it? Keep listening and you'll catch Trey's wonderful octave-pedal driven "Auld Lang Syne" tease and a crazy segue into the world of nitrous oxide. This might hurt just a little bit, but come back Monday (MLK Day) for MJM359, where another MJM Emeritus will drop some clips that may or may not confuse, but are guaranteed to please your ear holes.

Sounds like a C&P, but I've been known to be way off. So you're prob better served searching for a 200 Farmhouse.

Those are some pretty sweet clips. Both sound familiar, but I can't place 'em. Let's see if this gets to the hint...

Is the lack of hint supposed to indicate that there was a "silent jam" played at the same show as these jams?

Score: 5

D'oh, sorry guys, just finished up some work stuff and totally spaced the hint. Will add something momentarily (and give you 24 hours from that point to solve).

Mr. Owl was an impatient one. Nice SBD recording of that show. First jam sounded like a sweet BOAF jam to me. Peace.

There are two clips. You submitted an answer that could not win while divulging the first. Anyone who had the first clip but not the second could’ve gotten screwed. MJM is supposed to be a solo effort. Not a huge deal, but there is zero point in answering only one of the clips - even if you had guessed 12/31/09 Piper and 12/1/84 Scarlet Begonias it would have been at least an attempt at a winning answer, rather than “here is half the answer,” especially when folks had already realized the clips were from the same show per the introduction. Basically went front a solvable puzzle folks were working on to first one to see your post and re-read the introduction (all that was left was to check other 12/31/09 clips)...

Don't lose any sleep over it – you're not the first one and you probably won't be the last

Not to drag this out, but how did the hint reveal that the clips were from the same show? @lostboy01 has certainly seen more than one show. Am I missing something?

"To win, be the first person to identify the songs and date of the mystery clips."

Look at the word songs (plural), and look at the word date (singular). Yes, you missed something

my first thought was that all the clips had been played on January 2. then i looked at lostboy01's shows and realized he hadn't seen any of them XD
