Mon, 1991-07-15 The Academy

This show was part of the BMI New Music Seminar. Phish played a 1-set, 16-and-over show billed as Phish with Special Guests: The Giant Country Horns. The Giant Country Horns were Dave "The Truth" Grippo, Russell "Killer" Remington and Carl "Gears" Gerhard. The Horn Tour Phish Update stated "our show in NYC at Academy should be a welcome change for those tired of stuffing themselves into The Marquee. Academy is an old Broadway house turned club with plenty of room. " Phish closed the evening after two other bands played before them, The Ellen James Society and Yothu Yindi (an Australian band composed of native Aborigines). Reportedly, Phish performed an A Capella song or perhaps a short acoustic set the following day during the BMI New Music Awards at the Marriott Marquis hotel, joining other bands like Live, Judy Bats and 5 Chinese Brothers.
