The summer rumor mill
has already begun spinning, albeit calmly.
Phish is reportedly considering performing in June at the High Tide Music Festival in Ocean City,Md., according to The Dispatch. The festival, which the resort town approved in October, will take place Jun. 2 and Jun. 3.
Usually know for hosting
its own festivities, Phish recently began headlining mainstream music and
art festivals -- perhaps as an effort to appeal to a more varied fan
base. Since its 2009 revival, the band has played at Bonnaroo, Austin
City Limits and Outside Lands.
Bringing in an act such
as Phish, which boasts a mammoth following, is a sure way to boost local
commerce. In the past, businesses have lauded the band for attracting fans willing to spend.
Phish had said that it
planned to take some time off from touring after its New Year's Eve run at
Madison Square Garden. But this latest bit of news points to a possible summer
tour.
