MYSTERY JAM MONDAY PART 230

Welcome to the 230th edition of Mystery Jam Monday! Continuing with our Hall of Fame Series, where we welcome one of our eight, seven-time MJM winners into the *high-tech* MJM recording studio, and let that Emeritus winner select the tracks for this week's competition. For week 4 of this Emeritus Series, we welcome MJM savant @ghostboogie, the fourth person forced into mandatory retirement after notching his seventh MJM victory.

To win, be the first person to identify the song and date of each of the three mystery jam clips, and answer what they share in common. Each person gets one attempt per day, with the second “day” starting after the Blog posts the hint -- each answer should contain three songs / dates, along with the commonality between them. No sharing or trading of answers is allowed. A hint will be posted on Tuesday if necessary, with the answer to follow on Wednesday. The winner will receive one MP3 code good for a free download of any show, courtesy of our friends at LivePhish.com / Nugs.Net. Good luck, and thanks again to @ghostboogie for hosting this fourth week of the MJM Hall of Fame Series.

Hint:

Answer: Congrats to @morgentown on his third win! He deciphered the hint, which alluded to the theme connecting this week's clips: jams played in venues that now have different names. In fact, Phish played these three venues this summer! The jams were the 8/2/98 "Ghost" (from ~~Deer Creek~~ Klipsch Music Center), the 12/8/99 "Piper" (from ~~CCCC~~ Cross Insurance Arena), and the 6/30/00 "Halley's Comet" (from ~~The Meadows~~ XFINITY Theatre). Special thanks to MJM Emeritus @ghostboogie for the sweet jams and the awesome puzzle, and we'll see you next week when @PersnicketyJim takes the reins.

Can't spend any more time today researching, so pretty sure this is wrong.

11/4/98: Frankie Says
11/21/97: Emotional Rescue

All shows have Loving Cup closing the 2nd set

Yeah, gimme a bit. I'm not sure what's up with the Blog audio, as it's been getting progressively more buggy. But for now (and always), you can always download the clip by viewing the source code for the webpage. Here's the link (if it shows up as a player, just ctrl-s and save it on your computer):

Searched based on the 3 things I could think the hint means, but to no avail.

Really thought I was on my way to my second win.... Ha Ha Ha

Good luck everyone!

Well done! The Ghost was easy for me to find. Then the Hint came. Fortunately I knew it had nothing to do with the Simpsons Secret Language since none was played in the 8/2/98 show. Thought perhaps all jams were from Deer Creek (given the name change). Also thought the hint could mean the jam was always the preceding song before ____. Which given I knew the Ghost would have been Lifeboy. So searched 97-00 Lifeboys and started listening to jams leading into it. Finally decided it could just mean the venue changed its name and gave up given there are way too many name changes these days.

Again, great job and thanks @ghostboogie!
