considering this summer tour will be odd, i'm very surprised by the announcement of no fall.

so what's everyone planning on hitting?

If I were you... I'd commit to... 11, maybe 12 of the MSG shows now... then sort it out from there.

Buy 12, get one free, brah.
Is this still Wombat?

Well looks like there is some demand, CID packages for the final weekend are sold out.
We are all and we are all we are
Far flung bits of Sun and bits of Stars
From the  ocean from the land from the
beginning to end
Backwards forwards back toward
we belong

17 days in NYC is crazy long.
Stay safe!
And shoot the locks off your wallets.

DO IT!!!!
I've been coming to where I am from the get go
Find that I can groove with the beat when I let go
So put your worries on hold
Get up and groove with the rhythm in your soul

I'm in for August 4th.  Haven't seen a show at MSG since Dec 29, 1998.  Looking forward to making it back to MSG this summer  :phish:
sing me back home before I die

Uh, I know we're all older and make money and all – but why are Phish tickets $88 each?

That really is a lot for a band who relies heavily on repeat business.  It's as if they almost want us to stay home and couch tour.

Honestly, Phish is still 30% cheaper than Bruce Springsteen for the same rooms... plus you get a download of the show with your ticket. They are amongst the cheapest tickets for anything that can sell out MSG on any night of the year.

That's the truth, Ruth.

True dat. It's been a while since I mailordered for 13 shows. I guess it's not 1999 anymore.

I did just pay $110 face for Radiohead floors (and no DL code).  Happy to pay $110 though for a band that comes to Portland like, never.  That said, yes, the tix are $88, but come show day you can find a $20 ticket if you don;t care where you sit so....

Yeah but Phish doesn't have to pay for Max Weinberg's steady diet of hookers and blow, not to mention the legal fees.

But, I don't think our fans do happily lap it up, I think they go online and talk about how it was a bad show.
