With the excitement of the Phish Telluride approval behind them and just one day after performing two Genesis covers at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony, today Phish announced a massive 29 show Summer Tour that covers 18 different venues including some of Phish's old stomping grounds and couple of new ones.
Although most of the dates were eventually leaked in various forums and blogs, for the most part the band managed to keep fans guessing with round after round of rumors. The real dates were announced via a custom animation video featuring a synchronized swimming team and a cameo by Henrietta.
The 18 show early Summer leg finds Phish at 13 venues in the Midwest, East Coast, and South East including Blossom Music Center (141 show gap), Hersheypark Stadium (143 shows), nTelos Wireless Pavilion in Portsmouth, VA (first-time), Finger Lakes Performing Arts Center (551 shows) and Walnut Creek (90 shows). The leg culminates on July 3rd & 4th at Verizon Wireless Amphitheatre at Encore Park in Alpharetta, GA (first-time).
The 11 show late Summer leg goes from coast-to-coast at 5 different venues — starting off at the Greek Theatre in Berkely (696 shows) and ending at Jones Beach. This leg also includes two nights at the afore mentioned Telluride Town Park as well as Deer Creek and Alpine Valley.
