In February, Trey Anastasio and Classic TAB completed a highly successful 16 show tour. While certain songs were played every night, there were plenty of tunes that made sporadic appearances over the three week jaunt. For this edition of The Number Line we took a close look at the setlists from each of those shows to compile a few statistics you might find interesting.
