The Gorge '98 is a live box set by Vermont-based jam band Phish. Released on December 9, 2022, [1] it documents their performances at the Gorge Amphitheatre in Grant County, Washington on July 16 and 17, 1998. [2]
The band's summer 1998 tour saw them add songs into their repertoire that would later be included on that year's The Story of the Ghost album (including setlist staples "Roggae" and "The Moma Dance" [lower-alpha 1] , the latter of which was performed during the second set of the July 16 show) and continue the funk-influenced improvisational style that came to the forefront the previous year. [3] [4] Additionally, the 1997-1998 era saw the band's jams increase in their average length by a wide margin, exemplified by the second set of the July 17 show, which lasts over an hour despite being made up of only four songs.
Other shows from the band's summer '98 tour appear on Live Phish Volume 17 , Ventura , and Star Lake '98.
Songs performed during these shows include an extended jam on the normally-compact "Tube" on July 16, and the band's longest ever performance of "Also sprach Zarathustra" (entitled "2001" on Phish releases) on July 17. [5] Additionally, performances from the soundcheck of the July 16 concert are included as filler on the third disc.
Performances of "Tube" → "Slave to the Traffic Light" from July 16 and "Divided Sky" from July 17 were posted on the band's official YouTube channel in October to promote the release. [6]
