Jennifer Hartswick [trumpet]: Jennifer first worked with Trey when she recorded a trumpet part for Birds of a Feather during the recording of Story of the Ghost. Anastasio asked Hartswick to join TAB before the Winter 2001 and she instantly became a fan favorite. Jennifer returned to the fold at the 10,000 Lakes Festival in 2005 and performed with TAB through the Langerado shows in 2007. Over the past few years, Hartswick has released an incredible album, True, and often performs with HT Favorites Van Ghost.

I’ll take Terminal 5 over the Roseland any day.
“I’ll take Terminal 5 over the Roseland any day.”
Not me. Terminal 5 is my least favorite venue I’ve ever attended. I’ll take Roseland over it any time, no matter how hot and sweaty it is.
Well, I’ve actually only seen the Avett Bros and a few other non-jam acts at Terminal 5, so probably not the best judge, but my experiences there have not been all that bad.
It’s been crowded and not great by any means, but the upstairs wasn’t that bad (if you get a rail, you can see decent). The bathrooms were nice and it’s pretty easy to get beers.
Wooohooo, Red Bank on Valentine’s Day!!! Nice!!!!!
TAB is playing Kansas?
What’s the problem with T5?
Tons of great site lines.
Great sound and light system.
Big stage.
Lots of bar area.
Bathrooms are decent and clean.
In my opinion is like an upgraded roseland.
The author of this article mist has some personal beef because his comment that T5 is a “hated venue” sounds like sour grapes to me.
He must be some schill for clearchannel.
West Coast Shows???? of course not. I was really hoping for another killer Trey show at the Wiltern
can’t wait for trey to come to boston and connecticut….bringing my 4 and 6 year old boys to see trey in boston my 4 year old is so excited come on feb and then come on summer for phish
Terminal 5 sucks. Floor gets over crowded, and if you’re upstairs and not on the rail you might as well be in the bar next door.
The Uptown Theatre is in KC, MO not KS.
BFD…
BFD, as in Phish has never sounded better, now all we need is Trey gettin his yayas off with “his own thing…” Why cant he just take this time off from Phish and put in a little family time?
Here’s a toast to the now-sure return of such classics as “Drifting”, “Shine”, “Tuesday”, and yes my personal fav – “Nothing But a “G” Things Baby….”
Here’s too Atlantic City for NYE 2011!
