Phish Serves Up Reunion Tour Dates

Get ready for another helping of Phish.
The legendary jam band, who called it quits in August 2004 with a blowout two-day festival in Vermont, has confirmed plans to reunite for three shows next March in Hampton, Va.
Per a time-lapse video announcement posted on the band's website, Phish will take the stage of Hampton Coliseum—the surreal, spaceship-like venue that's hosted some of the band's most memorable gigs—on March 6, 7 and 8.
The site also says they will unveil additional 2012 tour dates early next year.
While pop success often eluded them during their 21 years together, the quartet of singer-guitarist Trey Anastasio, keyboardist Page McConnell, bassist Mike Gordon and drummer Jon Fishman was one of the top touring acts of the 1990s and early 2000s, known for high-energy, innovative and downright marathon live performances.
Since 1989 the ensemble played more than 475 concerts, grossing a whopping $175 million in revenue and selling nearly 6 million tickets, according to Billboard. In doing so, Vermont's Phinest amassed a carnival-like neo-hippie following akin to the Grateful Dead.
They announced it was taking a year-and-a-half-long hiatus in 2000 and returned on Dec. 31, 2001, with a New Year's Eve show at Madison Square Garden, followed by three more dates at Hampton Coliseum.
But the road took its toll and all of them called it quits in 2004.
Since then the foursome has been exploring solo careers, with Anastasio being the most visible member. But his music was overshadowed of late by his legal problems stemming from substance abuse issues.
Rumors began to spawn that Phish would regroup last May, when the rockers surfaced in New York to receive a lifetime achievement award at the Jammys.
Three of the four were also spotted playing together on stage at the Rothbury festival in Michigan on the Fourth of July, and the full band reportedly played three songs at the wedding of their former road manager earlier this month.
Tickets for the March Hampton dates will go on sale to the general public Oct. 18. But Phishheads get first dibs, with a limited number of tickets available via the band's site now through Oct. 8.  Story by Josh Greenberg

Phish Reuniting For 2009 Shows

After splitting in 2004, Phish is regrouping next March for a three-night run at the Hampton Coliseum in Hampton, Va. The March 6-8 shows will be the famed jam band's first since its blowout farewell gigs in Coventry, Vt., more than four years ago.

According to the band's Web site, there will be additional touring activity from guitarist/vocalist Trey Anastasio, bassist Mike Gordon, keyboardist Page McConnell and drummer Jon Fishman throughout 2009.

A small supply of tickets will be available directly through the band's ticketing system, with the request period ending Oct. 8. Tickets go on sale to the general public Oct. 18.

Although its music rarely intersected with the mainstream, Phish is one of the top touring acts of the past three decades. Since 1989, the act racked up a total of $175,541,923 in concert grosses, with 5,842,798 tickets sold to 475 shows reported to Billboard Boxscore.

Hampton Coliseum was a sentimental choice for the reunion shows, as it has previously played host to notable moments. The band's November 1998 run there was later released as the boxed set "Hampton Comes Alive," and then headed to the venue for three shows following its Dec. 31, 2002, hiatus-breaking gig at New York's Madison Square Garden.
We're very, very happy about this. It's something very special," Hampton Coliseum GM Joe Tsao tells Billboard. Asked how the shows came together, Tsao says, "It's very simple: I got a call from the band saying we want to come back and I said 'come on!'"

Tsao says the band’s agent Chip Hooper at Paradigm called about two weeks ago "and I had to call him back because I was breathing so hard."

Anastasio manager Coran Capshaw at Red Light Management is handling management duties for the Phish shows, and Ken MacDonald, whose independent promotion company Integrated Management Group operates out of Norfolk, Va., is the promoter of record.

Speculation about the group reuniting reached critical mass this summer, with band members admitting they'd begun discussing working together again, even going so far as to engage onetime producer Steve Lillywhite.

Three of the four members collaborated on stage at the Rothbury festival in Michigan over 4th of July weekend, and the full band reunited for a short set earlier this month during the wedding of former road manager Brad Sands. the group also received a Lifetime Achievement award from the Jammy Awards this spring.

Since the breakup, Phish fans have found solace in frequent archival releases via the band's own JEMP label and LivePhish.com. Next up is the Nov. 18 release of "At the Roxy," an eight-disc boxed set drawn from a Feb. 1993 run at the Atlanta venue. Story by Jonathan Cohen, N.Y. and Ray Waddell, Nashville
