Phish to reunite (in 2009)

You had to figure it wouldn’t take long before Phish got back together: as a group, they can make thousands of dollars from concerts without ever releasing new material, but as solo artists (well, the only guy who really went solo was Trey Anastasio) they make way less.

 

Finally realizing that situation, Phish have announced three reunion shows in Hampton, VA next year (March 6, 7, and 8). The tickets are $49.50, and the venue seats 13,800. You have to assume that if these shows sell out (I’m betting they’ll be gone in two weeks) the band will do more shows.

Gordon went solo and McConnell (played in group called Vida Blue) and Fishman both played tons as guests in other bands. If this show takes more then 2 days to be a complete sell out - I'll make Prefix my frontpage for a day!

Now I'm hoping this doesn't sell out in 2 days, but that's not happening. Haha.. No way....

This is a foolish move on Phish's part. They need to let it go and explore other avenues in music. They should have never announced that they were done. The

I don't think we should be so quick to assume that this is a pure cash-grab. The members of Phish have always been way stronger together than as separate entities, and they prolly recognize that. Yeah, they make a crapload from touring. But I'm guessing that the Phish merchandising empire never broke down completely even though the band broke up.

Yeah. I agree with Narphish. Maybe they just missing playing together. I'd play reunion shows with my band in heartbeat!!
