WHAT THE HELL MAN?

"Gentlemen, gentlewomen, start your engines..." -- as the Rabbi pointed out, perhaps this is an Indy 500 reference, or a racing reference? Or a red herring...

"Being familiar with the longest version of Gotta Jibboo that Phish has played to date can help you determine which year this week's MJM comes from. Be warned, however -- this hint is not as straightforward as you might think it is." As we all probably know by now, the longest Jibboo was 7/4/00 at the E Centre in Camden...

So I checked the Y2K Deer Creek run (in Indiana), 7/10/00 - 7/12/00 -- no dice. Maybe "not as straightforward" is meaningful? -- checked RiverBEND 9/20/00 -- no dice. Or as @likeaghost was likely going after, everything after ALS at Big Cypress was technically played in Y2K, but I couldn't find anything there either. Other ideas: another Jibboo, another 7/4 show, another E Centre show (it's not LP8 from '99), or another -> Saw It Again (it's not something from 9/10/99 with the same pairing)... @bl002e is embarrassing us and I can't even come up with a guess this week. My gut tells me this is some '99 but I actually have absolutely nothing.
