Date | Song | City | Timing | Notes |
---|---|---|---|---|
1997-06-20 | Jam | Prague, Czech Republic | 5:16 | > in from "Taste." A weird, funky jazz-like jam which -> to "Cities." |
1997-06-20 | Twist | Prague, Czech Republic | 13:18 | A straightforward, but funkified jam breaks around 8:00 into a low key, funky jam that at times sounds similar to Santana's "Oye Como Va" before returning to "Twist." The "Oye Como Va" connection would solidify with time. |
1998-07-05 | Fee | Prague, Czech Republic | 12:49 | The verses are flubbed badly but Trey and the band make up for it with a unique jam. It's percussive, funky, and a little goofy, but definitely very Phishy. -> to "Water In The Sky." |
1998-07-05 | Gin | Prague, Czech Republic | 14:34 | Solid jam that starts to break away from "Gin" around 7:30 and gets rocking and funky with building intensity. Great Page. |
1998-07-05 | McGrupp | Prague, Czech Republic | 9:28 | Despite a couple of rough spots spread throughout, the jam section features a contemplative, but at moments playful Page, with an intense culmination. An iconic '98-style, ambient Trey-led "Jam" follows "McGrupp" proper. |
1998-07-05 | Jam | Prague, Czech Republic | 3:11 | A Trey-led ambient and serene "Jam" is added to the end of "McGrupp" proper, and has some cool background instrumental effects from the others. |
1998-07-06 | Bag | Prague, Czech Republic | 4:11 | > in from "Buried Alive." Conventional "Bag,", but a fantastic -> to "Ghost." A must-hear show as well. |
1998-07-06 | Ghost | Prague, Czech Republic | 15:08 | A bold funk intro that is further highlighted by a raging and intense jam with a peak so high it is unscalable by its most ardent fans...the musical equivalent of absinthe injection by machine gun in a crossfire hurricane. [-> in from "Bag." An extended intro leads to a blistering hot straightforward jam that eventually burns out and -> to "Cities."] |
1998-07-06 | Cities | Prague, Czech Republic | 7:18 | Great -> into "Cities" from a roaring "Ghost." Starts VERY uptempo, but there's a cool, smooth tempo downshift mid-first verse. Cool little guitar solo at the end taboot. |
1998-07-06 | Roggae | Prague, Czech Republic | 8:06 | A more rhythmic and energized jam section than later versions. Great Fish and Trey. |
1998-07-06 | Maze | Prague, Czech Republic | 11:50 | In addition to this being a blistering hot version, at 9:30 the entire band stops on dime in the middle of Trey's solo, Trey thanks the audience, and at 10:00, the band resumes right where it left off. |
1998-07-06 | Piper | Prague, Czech Republic | 19:49 | Relentless, punishing, and hard rocking jamming place this "Piper" squarely in the same company as the 11/19/97 "Wolfman's Brother" and 12/29/97 "DwD." Like those monsters, this one eventually settles down. -> to "Makisupa." |
1998-07-06 | Loving Cup | Prague, Czech Republic | 8:14 | Trey blazes a trail on his 'doc, RAGING LIKE MAD in this excellent version! |
1998-07-06 | Possum | Prague, Czech Republic | 10:59 | Awesome version with a great swingy theme to the jam that Trey keeps returning to. Mike is outstanding, and Page plays the Fender-Rhodes for a stretch, adding to the jazzy feel. Includes a "Stash" tease from Trey. |
