Phish will livestream their April 4, 1998 Island Tour concert at Providence Civic Center in Providence, Rhode Island for Episode 32 of their archival “Dinner And A Movie” series. The broadcast will take place on Tuesday, March 30 at 8:30 p.m. ET on YouTube and LivePhish.com.
The April 4, 1998 was the third of four shows played by Phish in April 1998 on what was dubbed the Island Tour due to the concerts taking place on Long Island and in Rhode Island. The tour began with shows at Nassau Coliseum in Uniondale, New York on April 2 and 3. The band then headed to the Providence Civic Center for shows on April 4 and 5.
Set 1: Tweezer > Taste, Bouncing Around the Room, Funky Bitch, Ginseng Sullivan, Limb By Limb, Lawn Boy, Character Zero
Set 2: Birds of a Feather > Also Sprach Zarathustra [1] > Brother [2], Ghost -> The Lizards, David Bowie
Encore: Harry Hood
In a nod to the previous show, Trey said “Carini’s gonna get you” in Lawn Boy. 2001 contained a Long Train Runnin’ tease from Trey and was unfinished. Brother included a brief Daveâs Energy Guide tease and was followed by a short instrumental reprise, which was announced as the âradio-friendly version.â Trey contrasted this with the normal version, which was deemed un-radio-friendly due to its length. Ghost, which Trey jokingly remarked was also not radio-friendly because it is long and slow, included an I Canât Turn You Loose tease. This show is available as an archival release on LivePhish.com.
