oh god, the hippies are back
Phish Phever: Local hotels already sold out for concert dates

HAMPTON - Phish is coming to Hampton, and its phans are making plans.

All it took was for the rumor to strengthen in Phish nation for Hampton to start selling out hotel rooms before the reunion shows were even publicly announced on Wednesday. The demand for tickets will exceed the supply, and no one will know if they have their tickets until the public sale begins (and ends) on Oct. 18.

But fans will be streaming into town for the party and possibility of a scalped ticket regardless if they have a secured ticket or not, and they were not waiting for a guarantee of a ticket to put up money for a room.

As of mid-afternoon today, every hotel and bed and breakfast in Hampton was sold out except three: Arrow Inn, Clarion and Travel Lodge.

On Tuesday night, fueled by rumors but several hours before this morning's official announcement from the band, the Comfort Inn Coliseum sold out all of its rooms for March 6,7 and 8. So did the Extended Stay Hampton. And even the huge Embassy Suites.

The Ramada Inn sold out at 3 a.m. today as fans became more confident of the rumors. The Courtyard by Marriott in Hampton sold out this morning, and demand is now quickly spreading into Newport News, where Point Plaza was fielding a flood of calls today for its remaining rooms.

The supply of rooms at the large Holiday Inn Hampton Hotel and Conference Center in the Coliseum area was already taken off the market a year ago for those days, when there will be a convention that will now be surrounded by a horde of Phish fans.

I new all along finding phisheads here would be difficult and I'm not trying to convert anyone, just inform them. Obviously some people are curious as there has been over 400 hits for this thread. With that said.
Phish is not horrible, you just dont like them. 100,000 people do not travel to alligator alley in florida for the new millenium to listen to a horrible band, period. (outselling any other act in the world) As for you saying phish doesnt know what a song is, that is ridiculous because u have been to their concerts, did they just stand on stage with their instruments the whole time doing nothing? didnt think so. For what it's worth, Trey was one of rolling stone's top 100 guitarists of all time, I dont think u make it to the list if your music lacks soul, purpose and drive. Don't remember seeing Tony Monaco on that list, though I'm sure he is a fine musician.
As far as comfest, I have been to it many times and do enjoy myself as I have been impressed with some of the local bands, but I will not say which ones because there is enough drama following the local scene.
Phish has also donated millions of dollars to charities so whether you like their music or not, they still get paid and continue to help those less fortunate.

I got the new LivePhish release from 12-30-1997 from Madison Square Garden if anyone wants it. The bad part is that its in mp3 format, but I hope to get the lossless version soon.
