I am not sure why Phish hasn't played NOLA since 1999. Trey played multiple shows here in 2005 and is coming back this Feb. Mike played a solo show at the Sugar Mill during Jazz Fest 08 or 09 (can't remember exactly). Page has had the most appearences here in recent years with a guest appearence with WSP at the Fairgrounds in 08, a few PBS w/ Page shows that year, and of course his 3 shows with the Meters and 1 with Tyrptophunk last JF. Why they don't play as a group? I dunno, maybe holding out for a big run here one day? It is strange.

Phish fans would travel from all over for a New Orleans run. It is certainly a destination concert given the fanbase.

I've alwayys heard, through some well connected sources, that when Phish played JF last, the city told JF "Never Again".

Could be urban legend, could be lie, but it is what I've always heard.
