Phish

Phish have covered countless bands over the years -- Pavement, Neutral Milk Hotel, Ween, even freaking Rage Against the Machine. But even Rage don't rock harder than the legendary metal vets that Phish down-tuned their guitars to honor during their New Year's Eve gig in New York City, the final show of a four-night stand at Madison Square Garden.

Trey Anastasio of Phish has opened up about his drug and alcohol addiction, and how he hit his lowest point before the band split in 2004. From his recollection of events, it sounds like he was out of his mind.

Phish will follow up last year's four-night New Year's Eve stand at New York City's Madison Square Garden with another four-night stand leading up to the arrival of 2013. The gigs mark the third year in a row that the legendary jam band will rock MSG to mark the holiday.

Just in case you aren't Justin Bieber or one of the 13,499 other fans who caught Phish's summer tour when it rolled through Long Beach, Calif. last Wednesday (Aug. 15) for a performance at the eponymous Long Beach Arena, check out high-definition video of what almost certainly is an improv jam recorded during the show and is titled, appropriately, 'Long Beach Jam...

Who would ever guess Justin Bieber and Selena Gomez are Phish heads in the making? The teen pop star couple and friends reportedly caught a Phish concert last night (Aug. 16) at a venue just outside of Los Angeles -- and seemed to end up having a blast, hanging backstage with the band and totally staying at the gig well past their scheduled departure time.

--  Trey Anastasio brought in members of the National and Mates of State to guest on his next solo album, 'Traveler,' which was helmed by producer Peter Katis. "I wanted to work with Peter because he is a master at creating a sonic landscape," the Phish frontman says of the disc, which drops Oct...

Apparently their fans have spent countless hours in, ummm, inspired debate discussing exactly what the Phish logo pictures, but we're pretty damn confident we know what it is: It's a fish! Call it what you want, but it has appeared on countless T-shirts and tattoos, bumper stickers and bongs since before Phish themselves remember (no, even they don't seem to recall the Phish logo origin story)...

There must be something about Phish's music that makes people think they can, like, fly, man. Roughly two years after a fan leaped from the balcony during a Long Island show, the band's concert on Sunday, July 8, was interrupted when a naked 19-year-old girl climbed up a light pole and fell 25 feet to the ground.

Phish were on hiatus at the time of Trey Anastasio's arrest back in 2006 for criminal possession of a controlled substance and DWI drugs. The singer was stopped by police while driving through Whitehall, N.Y. at 3:30 in the morning and, after failing a field sobriety test, was found to be carrying Xanax, Percocet and Hydrocodone that had not been prescribed to him...

In one of the odder creative journeys we've seen over the last several years, Phish's Trey Anastasio is prepping his Broadway debut, a musical based on a 1997 documentary about a competition based on contestants' ability to keep at least one hand on a truck for an extended period of time.
