Live Phish 04.02.98 is a live album by American rock group Phish, which was recorded live at the Nassau Coliseum in Uniondale, New York, on April 2, 1998, which serves as the first night of the band's four-night "Island Tour" ,

The short mini-run quickly became one of the most popular Phish performances of all time, with the band mixing the funk of 1997 with the high-energy jams of the mid-1990s along with brand new compositions.

Highlights include a 20-minute "Stash", an 18-minute "Twist", "Wolfman's Brother" -> "Sneakin' Sally Through the Alley", and the debut of "Frankie Says" and "Birds of a Feather".

In addition to being a CD release, this concert is available as a download in FLAC and MP3 formats at LivePhish.com.
