Phish adds a Chicago date to its summer tour
The band's shows at Alpine Valley Music Theatre in East Troy are already sold out
Scenes from an actual Phish concert.
More Just Announced
When your reunion announcement brings people to tears; when the New York Times delivers breathless reportage from the parking lot of your first concert; and when tickets for your first few tour dates get traded on the black market for hundreds or thousands of dollars—well, you are Phish, and you have it pretty good. But why not have it better by announcing a second round of summer tour dates?
Phish will play an additional 12 shows this summer on top of its already-announced dates (all of which, save for Bonnaroo, have sold out), including a four-night run at Red Rocks in Colorado. Local fans who weren’t able to snag a ticket for one of the Alpine Valley shows will have a second (though less convenient) chance to jam out Aug. 11 at Chicago's Toyota Park, which is just outside the city limits on the southwest side.
In other Phish news, Rhino recently released film footage of the band’s entire performance from its 1997 Clifford Ball festival in upstate New York. Just imagine: seven DVDs (!) of pure, unadulterated grooves, including special features like a recorded soundcheck and an interview with “longtime Phish artist Jim Pollock.” Rad.
