Looking for 8/29/98 Sugarbush Vermont

Looking for a copy of a show from 8/29/98 Sugarbush Vermont. Eternally grateful to anyone who can help me track it down.

I was there - I remember there was an issue with buses to the venue and many people arrived late missing much of the show - I seem to recall the Hip giving a refund for those affected as well. It was the last of 5 shows I saw on that run - probably my favourite hip shows I saw other than 1991 Concert Hall.
1. Pearl Street - North Hampton MA
2. Hot Tin Roof - Martha's Vinyard - (100 people in attendance due to pending hurricane concerns)
3. Hampton Beach Casino - Hampton Beach NH - Gord broke his acoustic guitar at this show and It was also the show that his banana shaker got broken and he gave it to my friend Candice - you can see the duct tape on the end of the banana in the pix below.
4. State Theatre - Portland Maine
5. Sugarbush Mountain - Warren VT

I missed that show because of the damn busses...

Despite the setlist I recall the show being only OK - maybe because it was the last of 5 shows that were all in small venues and it was outside on the base of a ski hill in summer - the sound in particular was not great if I recall correctly as well
