Review: Phish @ Festival 8 – Acoustic Set

Another surprise was in store for concertgoers shortly after the band left the stage when they returned for the first mid-show encore in Phish history. The folks at Jam_On were so surprised they had cut away from the live feed and didn’t broadcast most of the Driver that kicked off the three-song encore. Reworked versions of Talk (transposed down at least one key) and Secret Smile followed before the quartet left the stage for good. Phish will return at approximately 5:30 local time for the first of two electric sets that will close out Festival 8.
