In an effort to help fans reduce their carbon footprint, Phish, The Waterwheel Foundation, and Reverb have created a Rideshare Program to help drivers and riders connect with each other to carpool to shows on the band's upcoming tour.

After each show on this summers' tour, we will pick twenty random Phish Ride Share participants to receive a free download of that night's show. Please click here for more information and to find the shows that you may be driving to or need a ride to.

In addition, an on-line "Green Guide To Phish Touring" is available now to help make your travels to shows a bit easier and a bit greener. The guide outlines tips and alternatives, covering everything from green hotels and campgrounds to the best places to fuel up your biodiesel-powered vehicle.

We're strongly encouraging everyone attending Phish's May 31st show to use public transportation. For those of you not familiar with Boston's public transportation system, visit the MBTA Trip Planner website. Keep in mind that there is extremely limited parking around Fenway, so public transportation may be your only option.

Remember that this is an early show with a 6:30PM start time, so plan accordingly. There is a strict no tailgating/no vending policy at Fenway, and we ask that you respect that.

As most of you are probably well aware, the show is completely sold-out. If you don't have tickets, we ask that you please refrain from going to the venue in hopes of getting one. Even if no ticketless fans show up, sold-out Phish shows are high impact events that strain the city's normal daily flow. Add ticketless fans to the equation and the situation can quickly become overwhelming to the local community. Thanks in advance for respecting the Phish scene. ]]> http://www.phish.com/news/index.php?year=2009#story438 We're excited to announce the release of "Time Turns Elastic," a new track from Phish's forthcoming studio album, http://itunes.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewAlbum?i=317129432&id=317129304&s=143441[available now for download] exclusively at iTunes....

Time Turns Elastic, a ground-breaking work for vocals, guitar and orchestra composed by Trey and Don Hart, is available for pre-order now at both Phish Dry Goods and Trey's online store. The piece is available on CD in Limited Edition deluxe packaging (once this version is sold out, it will revert to standard jewel-case packaging). We've also pressed it on 180g Clear Vinyl. The deluxe packaging features the Original Acoustic Demo on the B-side and quantities are extremely limited.

The piece - orchestrated by Don Hart and performed by Trey and The Northwest Sinfonia - blends the intrinsic elegance of classical music with searing blues-rock guitar, resulting in an exhilarating work that engages and challenges fans of both genres.

Trey and Orchestra Nashville gave Time Turns Elastic its debut performance at the Orchestra's season opener at Nashville's legendary Ryman Auditorium in September 2008. Time Turns Elastic will receive its East Coast premiere on May 21st when Trey joins Music Director Marin Alsop and the Baltimore Symphony Orchestra for a special evening that will also feature classic Phish songs and solo Anastasio compositions.]]> http://www.phish.com/news/index.php?year=2009#story434 We're extending our Earth Day celebrations at http://drygoods.phish.com/Dept.aspx?cp=773_13666[Phish Dry Goods] to a full week!

Earlier this afternoon, Kristy Manning, Trey's sister, passed away after a courageous battle with cancer. She was one of Phish's first fans and biggest supporters. In recent years, Kristy helped form and lead Trey's non-profit endeavor, The Seven Below Arts Initiative.

Kristy was a loving sister, mother, wife, daughter, friend, and a role model for all. Her positive attitude, strength of character and continued outpouring of love and support left a profound impact on everyone she knew.

She will truly be missed.]]> http://www.phish.com/news/index.php?year=2009#story425 In celebration of Phish's first shows in over four years, we're thrilled to be able to offer fans free, high-quality downloads of the band's sold-out... Everything Phish Phish 2009-03-04T00:00:00-08:00

We are sorry for any inconvenience this may cause our fans. We are in active dialogue with Ticketmaster to push them to address the inconvenience their error has caused.

Phish takes this and all ticketing matters extremely seriously. We will seek assurances this type of error will not happen again in the future. The high demand for the tickets on Phish's return has overwhelmed the prevailing ticketing systems and revealed their flaws. We are putting pressure on the ticketing providers to improve their systems. We are focused on the ticket broker activity in our tickets and the inability of the existing ticket systems to stop this. We are actively seeking options to limit this.

As a reminder, the public on sale date for Red Rocks is Thursday, March 26th at 12:00 Noon Mountain time and additionally Phish's ticket request period will remain open until 11:59PM eastern time this Sunday the 22nd. Please visit http://phish.portals.musictoday.com/ to request tickets.

Thank you for your continued support.
