WE HAVE A WINNER: The It T-Shirt Design Contest

It was a difficult decision: there were many excellent entries (857 to be exact), but only one winner. We thank the hundreds who entered, all excellent Number Twos, and salute William J Smith, an art-school student from Savannah, Georgia as our Number One. His design has a certain je ne sais quoi, a subtlety capturing the essence of a two-day music festival in a way absolutely everyone can appreciate. The design will be kept under wraps until it appears on the spot, as if out of a can, up in Maine.

For your viewing pleasure, a number of close runners-up are on display in a http://phish.com/galleries in the East Wing of Phish.com.
