Phish Festival 8 Update

Just a reminder that Halloween is just around the corner!  That not only means that you’d better start planning your awe-inspiring costume but it also means that the Phish Festival 8 concert is quickly approaching!

As reported by us (and many others) before, Festival 8 will be a 3 day concert extravaganza with Phish performing 8 sets including a Halloween show where the band will do a musical version of dressing up in costume and perform another band’s album.  (Past albums covered include the Beatles’ White Album and The Who’s Quadrophenia.)

Festival 8 will be held at the beautiful Empire Polo Club in Indio, California.  This is a great venue with lush lawns and palm trees surrounded by mountains.  It would be hard to find a more scenic landscape to spend 3 days.

Tickets are still available and will cost you around $200 for all 3 days of the event.  The venue will provide both shade and mist tents, sinks, toilets, trash and recycling stations, on site medical and security services, ATM, a 24 hour general store, cell phone charging stations, and potable water.  Sounds like they’ve thought of everything!  Check out the Phish website for a full list of do’s and don’ts as well as a ton of other information about this awesome 3 day festival.

If you don’t want to spend 3 days cramped in your car or you’d like a place to stay to treat yourself after spending 3 days cramped in your car, consider the Lake La Quinta Inn.  It’s a beautiful bed and breakfast that is perfect for a quiet getaway after the noise and crowds of an incredible music festival.
