Phish - Festival 8 - Oct.30 - Nov.01 [SBD]
On June 26, 2009, Phish announced a "save the date" for a three-day festival on October 30 - November 1. The band website contained an animated map of the United States, and individual states were slowly removed from the map, leaving California. Confirming several rumors, the band announced that "Festival 8" will take place at the Empire Polo Fields in Indio, California. The band played eight sets over the three nights, including a musical costume on Halloween, The Rolling Stones' "Exile On Main Street" and the band's first-ever all acoustic set the following day.
