who or what was Phish ?
In Brief: Phish was a Burlington, VT-based quartet (guitar, bass, keys & drums), known for intensive composition
in over 200 original tunes and extensive improvisation including some 250 or more cover songs. With over 1000 live
performances, the band had been around since October 1983, having met in college in Vermont. They have attracted
a cultish following of "phans" seeking phish tickets.
Genre? New! Their style was eclectic. Phish allegedly offered something rare in pop - a long, complex and completely different
show every night. Musically competent, Phish embraced a broad spectrum of rock, jazz,
bluegrass, twentieth century compositional techniques, blissful extended jams, African groove experiments,
psychedelic game playing and absolutely amazing moments of free-form guitar ecstasy.
Phish tickets - I think it's all over
Phish were the de facto leaders of the neo-hippie jam band movement until deciding to retire in 2004.
On May 25, 2004, Trey Anastasio made an announcement on the official Phish website. All of the band's members agreed
that the 2004 summer tour would be their last together. While Phish and Phish tickets maintained their success over the years, they felt
it would be best if they ended on a high note. Separately, the band members, including singer/guitarist Trey Anastasio,
bassist Mike Gordon, keyboardist Page McConnell and drummer Jon Fishman, may continue to tour. So, alas, there are no
more Phish tickets.

Members touring on their own
It won't be the first time Phish's members have toured independently. Mike Gordon performed his first-ever solo tour
in 2003, a 9-date run in support of Inside In, an album released on Ropeadope Records. Phish tickets contd. The tour kicked off at The
Fillmore in San Francisco, and stopped at 8 cities, playing in theatres and clubs before concluding at New York's
Irving Plaza. The tour featured a seven piece all-star group handpicked by Gordon that was quite eclectic in its
instrumentation, including pedal steel, banjo, trombone, guitar, flute, drums, and tap dancing.Phish tickets contd.
Jon Fishman also toured in 2003, playing drums for The Jazz Mandolin Project, a group whose sounds offer something
for everyone, from rock to drum-and-bass and jungle music to plenty of jazz. Trey Anastasio is also no stranger to
touring on his own, as he has done so off and on for years.
so .... are there any ex phish tickets available ?
alas, it seems that the answer at present is "no". There are however, several dedicated Phish websites which may keep "phans" up to
date. Some of these I have listed below. It would seem that if you register as a member, then regular newletters and offers
of Phish related material may come your way, but alas, no phish tickets.
