Phish reunites. Phans breathe a sigh of relief.

After much speculation and a hailstorm of rumors that culimated in a messageboard frenzy last night, the confirmation came this morning at around 3 a.m.: After a more than four years apart, Phish is finally getting back together.

The official email release:

Phish will re-unite to play three shows at Hampton Coliseum, March 6-8, 2009, as announced via an awesome time lapse video at phish.com. There will

be a lottery (hosted by MusicToday) for "a limited number of tickets",

ending Friday 10/8. Public sale begins 10/18 via TicketMaster.

The legendary 2/19-21/93 Roxy shows are also being released and are

available for pre-order from Dry Goods and elsewhere as an 8-CD set.

Pre-orders for the discs alone look lower elsewhere, but shipping charges

vary, and pre-orders through Phish.com's Dry Goods "department" include

options for an "old school" logo shirt, and a 2009 calendar. This is only

the third complete series release, following the Hampton and Island Tour

releases.

Shouldn't it read "Phans breathe a sigh oph relieph"? Your editor (David? Eric?) and your spell check might have a hard time getting over those (mis)spellings, though ...

Gabe, it's amazing how well your non-humorous comedy translates to print. Wait for it... :)

It's always good news when Phish plays. Welcome back, boys. You've been sorely missed. Now, just let me get preorder tickets and avoid the Ticketmaster Thunderdome. Or worse yet, eBay!

I'm so there. And on a sidenote, these are only the prelim/first dates. A full tour is supposed to be announced in early '09.
