The highly anticipated live 3 CD, 2 DVD release Live In Brooklyn is set to hit stores July 11! This looks like an incredible live Phish experience. The release is so big that Phish has decided to give their fans a special screening in movie theatres across the country on July 10 (see listings here). Here is the skinny from phish.com:
“Live In Brooklyn was filmed June 17, 2004 at the band’s opening night performance at Keyspan Park on Coney Island. The concert footage has not been shown since that night, when 16,000 Phish fans in the sold-out baseball park danced in the rain and 30,000 fans watched the original live simulcast in movie theatres across the country. For those who were there, this is a unique chance to relive this landmark show in its entirety. It’s also a great opportunity for those who missed it the first time to experience the magic of Phish at their best. Live In Brooklyn includes all the footage from the simulcast, re-edited in HD and remixed in 5.1 Surround Sound and Stereo PCM audio.”
I got really fired up about this when I saw and heard several songs from Live In Brooklyn over at rhino.com. What a magical night of music that must have been for all those lucky enough to participate!
