I was at this show... I was interning at a company in The Netherlands and flew out to Prague with 3 friends for the 2 shows. Prague was stunning and the Lucerna Theatre was just amazing (underground theatre). It was small/intimate enough where you could hit up the bar in the theatre, grab a cocktail, and walk right back to where you were standing/grooving and not miss a thing. Certianly one of the best memories of the summer of 98. Thank u for posting.

Some of the best times of my life on the 98 US summer tour. Hearing Ghost for the first time, BOAF for the first time. Trey had his Loops, but still had that killer tone.

just happy to be here. might be the best jam of all time..

Always wondered why on Earth they changed this from Pure Funky to Space. I believe that the Early Versions are the Best. Ie Atlanta 97...

Kids today will never know the joy of being on acid when Trey cooks up all those whale call loops. You’re pulled into a deep place. Then the machine gun comes out and you’re pulled right into the present mind blowing. Ugh. So good.

The transition from ACDC Bag is also flawless

I was thinking the other day that the Prague ghost was overrated, until I listened to it again that is. My thinking at the time was that people were just taken in by Treys lightning fast runs but there is so much to this jam than just fast soloing. The energy just overflows from start to finish. And those runs are super melodic and tight. This is peak trey killing it.

This. Is. The. Greatest. Thing. I've. Ever. Seen. I want the vocal jam from Denmark posted lol. It's the best EVER.

Was Trey feeling it this night? YES. love the head bob. And the 2 step shuffle. Whooooo

Just too sick. Machine gun peak is so so dirty! We though they'd never end! Now, if anyone has video of Darien lake 93 that would be greatly appreciated. Much searching most disappointing. Great work as always LL.

Happy 25th birthday to the GOAT!

Fishman had a few gears during these years that made some shows like this extra special. Physically he just laid out rhythm for these guys to play on and this is one of the greats. After Trey hits that effect and smiles and blues licks start band is in high gear. Miss that about 90's 98 really in particular worcester wipeout night he was so incredible.

I was just saying this. That’s the biggest difference I think between then and now, fishman’s physicality. Dude used to have a wild swimmers stamina and would just fucking go… i literally used the wipeout weekapaug as the example. I don’t see them that much anymore just because these jams where what I was always chasing, but am going to see them at alpine in a few weeks for the first time in yearsZ

I was at this show. It may have been the best night of my young life. The night before was a little messy and disappointing, but man, they were *locked in* for this second night. Strange memories 25 years down the line: There were heavily armed (AK47's) security all around the outside of the venue (young me assumed it was the leftovers of the prior communist regime, but I probably am not correct, there) . Of course, Page playing "Petrof"...the incredible ease of moving around the venue (which was stunning) and the friends I made on this tour. As a musician, the playing on this tour really took me to a different level. The 7/2 Ghost...this Ghost. Man, I saw some stuff.
