Start The VW Camper Van And Get Going To Phish-Fest

October 1, 2009 at 10:38 AM | by kjb | 1 Comment

Phish has been rocking out all summer long after announcing that they were back from retirement. Now they are looking to celebrate the season with Phish Festival 8, another installment of their sporadic get-togethers. The band, along with those who follow them around, are headed out to Indio, California from October 30 to November 1.

Think of this year’s festival as a sort of musical way to celebrate Halloween. The band is planning to cover a classic album in its entirety, but so far, their choice of album remains a secret. We’ll trust that they’ll pick something that their fans will enjoy—sorry Annie Lennox, this probably isn’t your year to be honored. Besides the cover concert, they will also be featuring an all-acoustic set on Sunday at noon. This concert brunch will also feature coffee and donuts for those with the munchies.

Tickets are still available, but they are a little pricey since you need to pony up for all three days of the festival. It's about $200 for admission to the entire festival, but at least they include free parking for the day; however, if you’re thinking about camping, a parking pass for the car camping lot will set you back $15. If times are tough, the band will let you work for your tickets; just volunteer enough hours and you’ll be in for free. For other questions just check out the festival’s FAQs—a couple of them made us chuckle.

    Nice to see this!

    Hey, it's nice to see Vermont's Phinest get a little love on Jaunted... If there's anyone who knows the best ways of traveling across the country, it's got to be Phish fans.
