    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.

      I too was there, as the tour happened to follow my semester abroad in Rotterdam. Wound up doing the three Copenhagen shows (an absurdly weird and awesome experience) as well as both Prague shows. I'm so grateful that things worked out the way they did. I treasure those shows and the incredible fun I had.

The creativity was pouring out from everywhere made crazy look easy and fun af! Sessions at West 54th Street was perfect example

    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.

    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.

    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. Thanks for great video of amazing jam:) Awesome!!!! Still great its different style but I feel lucky to have seen these years and type shows. Hella fun:)

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

    How they take such a repetitive sound and make it into a groove is beyond me

    Still not as good as June 11, 1994 Red Rocks. Still by far the best Phish show I have ever come across. They were on fire. There are board mixes out there but the link I found on UA-cam which is a good microphone recording. Without further adieu, the greatest Phish show of all time:

    P.S. If you have another great show, post the link in a reply.

      That YEM from 6/11/94 is what got me into phish. Insane playing that night. My favorite fluffheads, my favorite maze, my favorite YEM. Insane night.
