Phish Bassist Bound for Europe

Mike Gordon is taking his solo act abroad this summer, with a five-show European tour.

The tour, announced today via mike-gordon.com, begins on March 13 in Amsterdam at the Melkweg, where the Phish bassist will remain for two more nights before closing the mini-run Mar. 18 in London at The Borderline.

The lone London date also appeared on phish.com.

This will mark the first time Gordon has toured Europe sans his band mates. Phish traveled there in 1996, 1997 and 1998. The quartet has also toured in Japan. 

While there is no way of knowing if Phish could have plans for a European tour of its own sometime in 2012 or beyond, the band may tour in the United States during the summer.

So far, rumors of a June festival at Bader Field in Atlantic City have spread voraciously on Phantasy Tour, a Phish message board, with many fans all but confirming the event.
