I hope they don\'t play small shows. This is the reason I still haven\'t seen Smashing Pumpkins since they reformed. Also because I am a lazy person.

I want to see Phish with 30,000 other people and $40 lawn seats. Isn\'t that enough to ask?

And then a whole new generation will be able to distinguish the sticker on my bumper from a Jesus fish.


wow do people really confuse the phish fish with the jesus fish ?? i would think the kidz in NoHo would be hetty enough to know the difference.

Not exactly phish, but I have a grateful dead bear belt that i wear every-so-often. Only about 5% of the people I meet know what it is. Everyone else asks "Why do you have teddy-bears on your belt?" or "Why do you have care-bears on your belt?"

I agree. The way to see a live band is in the summer, on the lawn, surrounded by good people.

Man, you guys are extremely naive if you think the only reason they would come back is "for the love of music"...!  That is some crazy hippie talk right there.  Look back at every huge band that broke up for whatever reason and then reunited for a come back tour.   It\'s always about the $$$$$.

I don\'t care what the motivation is, as long as they can play.

imagine if Phish was playing SPAC tomorrow? How awesome would that be. The lot, the lawn, the lights, the kiiiddzzz, the tunes you\'ve known since forever, the boys on stage again. I miss it all at this time of year I can\'t deny it. Thank god for bfast though. I would be so lost without them.

Well put Klout. I like this statement.

A LETTER FROM PAGE 06.26.08
Given the volume of speculation and rumors that have bubbled up recently, I have been asked to make a statement…Here goes.

For me, the last four years have been great. I’ve spent quality time with my family and have watched my daughter grow. I took great pleasure and pride in writing and recording an album. I’m living a healthy lifestyle. I travel as little as possible and I sleep in my own bed. It took a couple of years after the break up to begin talking to my old band mates, but once the conversations began to flow it wasn’t long before the friendships were rekindled. And I can honestly say that I’m closer with all of them now then I’ve ever been in our 20-year relationship.

Recently the conversations have turned toward the possibility of spending some time together. Currently many of us have plans and projects already in the works, most notably Mike, who made a great album and is about to hit the road in support of it. Given that I might not even see some of the guys for the next six months, I would say that the announcement of a reunion is premature. However, later this year we hope to spend some time together and take a look at what possible futures we might enjoy. In fact the only real decision that has been made is that when we do get together, it will only be the four of us, hopefully with no distractions. I am really looking forward to that.

I want to say just a few more things. The prospect of Phish reuniting is something I consider very seriously, and I think about it a lot. And lastly, as always, there is plenty of misinformation floating around. Try not to focus too much on secondhand sources and random gossip. If there is anything real to announce, it will come from the four of us as a group.

Until then,

I didn\'t really care if they came back until I read that. Thanks for the post.
