March 20, 1998 @Shinjuku Liquid Room

March 20, 1998 @Shinjuku Liquid Room was a concert Fishmans performed at the finale of the 低音バッシュ tour at Shinjuku Liquid Room. It would be the last concert Fishmans would perform until June 7, 1998 @Hibiya Open-Air Concert Hall. The concert's performances of Sunny Blue and Just Thing would later be printed on Fishmans' live album 8月の現状. The concert was briefly discussed in the band's fanzine, Pool Volume 18 alongside their previous concert, March 16, 1998 @Fukuoka Drum Logos.

On December 23, 2021, drummer Kin-Ichi Motegi posted an image to his Twitter of 3 master tapes from this concert. Later, on January 7, 2022 @Kichimu Event Space & Cafe he noted that he'd been collecting old Fishmans performances for samples to be used during modern live performances, suggesting this concert is included in this effort.
