This shit is why I began to dislike going to Phish shows. The whole scene just became unbearable. Between ticketing messes, aggressive dirtsurfers in the lot, frat clowns singing in my ear, and Trey's fat-fingering it just stopped being fun.

I miss the days when we'd catch em at bars and student centers for $10.

I agree that between the scene and ticketing debacles it's enough to turn one away.................but the music just keeps bringing me back.:D

and after Hampton, you guys should be excited.

I feel like my trade is kind of fucked as even TM tickets don't ship until 7/13. Would require a lot of faith on my counterparty to send six tickets and wait a month before getting anything in return.

i agree totaly, i like the way south africa is ticketing the world cup. when you buy the tickets you have to provide the name of each person that is going, then each ticket would be assigned to each guest. when you goto the stadium you would need to get the tickets using your credit card.
Phish should of followed suit, with a good majority of tickets going to scalpers like stubhub and ebay just pisses me off more so than the dirty hippies trying to sell me braided rope.

Check your credit or debit card. That seems to be the pattern. Denials went out first and the acceptance emails are forthcoming.

tylerjames, Metallica and other acts use ticketless systems too. Ticketmaster has the capability and requires you to show a credit card to enter the arena.

yeah but would think all the problems phish has with scalping they would do something to try and prevent scalping other than a lottery.

found this article online. rumored that phish could play at Fenway on the 30th of May.

Boston Music Spotlight

Phish have added another slate of shows to their highly anticipated summer reunion tour. New England fans who missed out on tickets to their June 6 show at the Comcast Center, will now have the chance to see the band perform at the Meadows Music Theater on Friday, August 14. Tickets for the show are $49.50 and go on sale Saturday, March 28 at noon though Live Nation.

Meanwhile, there is growing speculation that the Vermont-based band will launch their summer in tour at Fenway Park. The show would happen on Sunday, May 31 just after the Dave Matthews Band perform a pair of shows on May 29 and 30. The thought of Red Sox management entertaining the notion of hosting three concerts at the historic ballpark does seem at odd at first. However, it would be an easy sell out (something very few bands can guarantee these days) and more importantly, Phish and DMB are both managed by Red Light Management. No official announcement confirming on denying the concert has been made. As it stands now, Phish will launch their summer tour at Jones Beach in New York June 4 and 5.

One other interesting report going around the Phish rumor mill is that the band will cap off their tour by hosting a festival at a family owned farm in Georgetown, Texas (outside of Austin). For more on that, go here.

Earlier this month, Phish returned to the stage for the first time in five years for a three night run at Virginia’s Hampton Coliseum. The band is also working on new material and is expected to work again with producer Steve Lillywhite later this spring.

Haven't been in several years, but the lots were luse, no security in sight. Especially parking around the old Hartford Jai Alai complex.

Traffic can be a total junkshow getting off of I-91. If coming from the north, the diamond lane ends at the same exit. Take it all the way off the highway (weird exit in between north and southbound lanes). Take a right at the light, and you are there.
