NEW YORK – The Phish reunion is in full swing: The band just announced plans for a summer tour.
Phish disbanded five years ago with a grand goodbye concert in their home state of Vermont, but announced last fall that they were getting back together for a trio of concerts starting March 6.
On Thursday, the jamband said they would kick off a summer tour on New York's Long Island on June 4.
Phish — a quartet of Trey Anastasio, Page McConnell, Mike Gordon and Jon Fishman — got its start in 1983. Their improvisational style and mix of different genres made them an enormously successful touring group with a cultlike following. They decided to call it quits in 2004 after fatigue and personal problems took a toll.
