The description really shows how much this band can tap into music as a feeling. Live music is not something to be meddled with, they know that. This show captures a different type of feeling than others, like mentioned, “sort of an end times drama” of a show. I think it’s beautiful, and the low spark encore signifies it all.

As much as any "official" release, this captures the apocalyptic immediacy of Widespread Panic in the late 1990s - especially on the destination/holiday multinight runs they turned into an artform during that time period. Toward the end of the second set and into the encore the music takes on a sort of End Times drama. They're playing these songs not only as if it's the last night of a big run or the last shows they'll be playing for a few months, but like they're the last songs the band ever might play, or the last songs any band might ever play because after this the whole concept of live electric music might be rendered moot as an art form. Anyway. Highly recommended.

Well put Horace! One of my favorite New Years runs for sure. I remember leaving the Ga Terrace with my tix from mail order for the 3 nights. I crossed the street and there was a Dud saying he just bought tix for 1/2/98. WHAT! I went over and grabbed 15th row DFC! I taped all 4 nights as we clamped to the front of the balcony. I started my DAP!, and headed for my seat. BTW, my seat never saw my ass, as I was on foot dancing all night. I got this email at 1:40 am last night as I was taping and ztreaming at the Peachtree Tavern. With me as a guest musician, you guessed it, Jeff Mosier. I showed him the email and we both said, "It's hard to believe it's been 14 years"!
