We’ve Got Your Phish Tour Dates
Earlier this morning Phish.com was updated with dates for Phish’s June tour, announced with the help of a video which featured a plane skywriting with a Punch You In The Eye soundtrack. The tour takes the quartet from their home base in the Northeast down to Asheville and out to the Midwest.
Here’s the full list of dates:

The tour kicks off with the band’s first visit to Long Island’s Jones Beach amphitheater since 1995. On June 6 the quartet returns to New England for a concert at the venue formerly known as Great Woods. Phish first performed at Great Woods on July 21, 1992 and have included the shed on most of their summer tours including their “final” tour back in August ‘04. Other venues on this tour that have hosted multiple Phish shows in the past include Deer Creek, Alpine Valley and the Post-Gazette Pavilion in Burgettstown, PA.
One set of shows that hasn’t been announced is the phab phour’s all-but-confirmed headlining gig at Bonnaroo. Look for an official announcement on February 3 when AC Entertainment and Superfly are expected to release the full lineup. Tickets go onsale via Ticketmaster on January 30 for the ten shows listed above. You can also purchase tickets by heading to MusicToday to take a shot at Phish’s online ticketing service.
