Trey Anastasio Rig Summer 2021

[zestystrat]

I look at this and immediately want to shake the hand of all the roadies. To load this all, in and out, every night (or every couple) is just tremendous organization. That's a ton of sh*t.

I mean, most of it is on wheels ;-)

Just read that the photo was taken at Rock Lititz in PA. Trey has been there all week dialing in the rig and the rest of the band got there today. Here’s a photo of the band’s full touring rig.

Holy s**t that's a lot of gear! I fully agree with Phisherman, I'd shake the hands of the road crew that sets it up and tears it down.

Anyone listen to the Undermine episode about what the road crew have to go through day in, day out? Unbelievable.

I support the smarter not harder movement.

Totally agree with this movement. I try to live by a one-trip-from-the-car-to-the-stage philosophy. That def means wheels.

If anyone is in the NY area for the shows and needing a ticket for 12/30, my plus one just bailed on me for that night. I've got 4 day passes and going to all 4 in the same spot.

@cosmicevan you wouldn't happen to play bass and used to play with Barry & Rob (me) in NYC many years ago?

2021-2022 New Year’s Run Update

With the Omicron variant of Covid-19 surging in New York City, we have made the very difficult decision to reschedule next week’s run of shows at Madison Square Garden. The health and safety of Phish fans, our crew, and venue staff is paramount in our minds. While Phish has played shows this...

why yes I am the same and now I see your user name of zesty strat and it's all coming together!!!!!! DUDE!!!! Hope you are well...was supposed to go to 1/1 with Barry, but alas, covid has shat on my life...the first time in a decade (since having kids) that I'm getting to do all 4 again. The planets just weren't as aligned as I thought...now what to do about my $300 babysitter for NYE?!?!?

Over reaction to a common cold “variant”

As a covid scared person, I have to agree. We all agree that this isn't going away and we need to learn to live with this thing and yeah, sure there's a SUPER contagious variant going around, but it's 80% less likely to put you in the hospital than delta and when delta was floating around it was no masks and we are all living life. It's all just backwards...it's a conspiracy against me getting to go to NYE. hahaha.

I'm layed up with something myself. Waiting on test results but they are five days out. Hopefully its just a nasty cold. Hope everyone feels better.

Straight up, everyone in the Northeast knows at least ten people sick with something right now. I’ve take three covid tests in the last five days. Thankfully all negative. WTF man. Be safe and be well folks!

Makes sense. That's where they were staging all their gear in that Instagram photo someone posted a few days ago.

What Brought Beyoncé, U2, and BTS to Amish Country?

You’ve never heard of Rock Lititz. But before the pandemic put the industry on hold, the biggest names in music were joining its waitlist.

This place looks ridiculous.

I had a friend at Penn State in the mid 80s who worked at Clair during the summers. He had great stories of their work back then. We both were part of the PSU Concert Committee and he urged me to go their for an interview. Being an Architectural Engineer, I could only imagine how a job at Clair/Taite would have changed my life.

Its utterly insane what goes on at that place. Tait Technologies - the company that invented the motor technology that moves CK5's lights around - is founded/based in an incubator at Rock Lititz. Its like Wonka's factory for the production industry.
