Well, if you don\'t go and Phish does reunite, even for an encore, you\'re not going to be happy.  If you go and that doesn\'t happy, at worst you\'re going to get to see Trey\'s band, that despite some grumblings, from what I\'ve read seems to get better and better with each show.  The setlists have looked good, and something, it might not be Phish reunion, but something is going down.  

My friend sent me this article, made to look like it\'s from the Associated Press, but I have some serious doubts.



AP (Buffalo)- According to numerous fan sites as well as former Phish founder and lead guitarist Trey Anastasio\'s website "The countdown to Utica" is near (http://www.trey.com). There will be all four members of the band formally known as Phish all on the stage at one time but not necessarily alone. Former Phish bassist Mike Gordon recently played a show at Irving Plaza in NYC and during Phish staple Ya-Mar Gordon made nearly 20 references to Utica throughout the song. Phish keyboardist Page McConnell recently sat in with Trey Anastasio\'s 70- Volt Parade and played Phish number\'s Strange Design, Waves and the tender Waste. Also reported is Anastasio\'s taping of Letterman which was originally to air Monday was pushed back to Friday to be seen at the conclusion of this special show in Utica. Anastasio is said to be making his first formal apology for breaking up his former band Phish and this will coincide with their one on reunion. For all "phans" this is a show that is to not be missed.

That\'s the line that gave me the serious doubts.

I found out someone on PhantasyTour wrote it.  I had a feeling it was fake when I posted it but wanted to share it anyway, just to add to the swirling "rumors".  

But, seriously, something is definitely going down and I\'ll be sure to report it back to the group when I return on Friday (or Saturday).  If Phish doesn\'t reunite though, i\'m going to lay out a few hippies!

it would be a weaksauce move to have claimed to be retiring and then come out again.


So, you\'d rather have them not get back together for the sake of sticking to their claim that it was over?

People change as time goes on.  At the time, they may have thought that was it.  If they have changed their mind, I\'ll be ecstatic if they go back on their word.


I too would be extremely happy if they want back on tour. However, I think much of this would have to fall back on Trey. Read his "letter to fans", his interview with Charlie Rose and much more. He was adamant in saying, Phish is done. Now, less then a year later after almost the entire community  turns its back on him, he has different thoughts about breaking up the worlds greatest rock band.

I certainly would have to drop Phish down a notch or 2, which still has them at the top of my list. However, they would have a lot to prove to me musically now.

and so my attempt to highjack a phish union thread with anticpation of a ser breakfast show in utica has failed once again.

i would see it as and insult to fans to have this so-called reunion show.  what happen to giving those fans who werent allowed in coventry, aren\'t they supposed to have some sort of compensation.

I was at the Utica show in \'02 at the Stanley, when the balcony bowed and plaster was flying all over the place.  The place was rocking hard during the 20 minute Mr. Completely, for sure.  

I\'ll be at the show tomorrow night, recording.  So whatever does happen, it will get released at some point either by me, or my buddy who is recording with me.



definitely report back on your first hand experience and aI appreciate the record in advance.

I think it would be great if phish played tonight, if not if Fishman came out since the others already have.

How great would it be if phish reunited for the encore and all they played was jennifer dances and then broke up again :P
