This is probably my favorite 98 show. So underrated. Best simple EVAR. Awesome Possum.

^I totally agree. First set is no joke but the second set… oh man. My favorite simple. A roses. sick wipeout possum. great yem. funny makisupa. yes sir a great show.

This Run had a lot to live up to from the year before. At the time it did not measure up as a whole. Over the course of time though i feel the music is just as good as 97. The energy from night one was going to be hard to carry on. That coupled with a long month of touring for me and the band left energy at a premium the final 2 nights. But holy shit this dude comes out and they play Layla. Shit was sick and I wish I could go back with the vigor of pre tour and move my bones as hard as my brain wanted too. 8.5/10
