The interwebs have been abound with rumors since Trey’s latest interview had him saying how he would love nothing more than to play “You Enjoy Myself” for the rest of his life with the other 3 guys from Phish.
Tom Marshall, Trey’s childhood friend and songwriting partner, also said in another interview that he and Trey have been writing songs together again and have about 15 complete. He doesn’t know if they’ll be Phish songs or used for some other project.
There’s a new rumor (and this is likely just that) that Phish will definitely be reuniting and there will be a new album produced by Steve Lillywhite (he produced Billy Breathes and those famous Dave Matthews Band Lillywhite sessions).
Anyway, as much as I would absolutely love for Phish to be back (and I have no doubt they’ll be back), I don’t want them to suck. They didn’t have too many great highlights post-hiatus and it would just be super sad to see them come back to be exactly what Trey said he didn’t want them to be… caricatures of themselves (and honestly, its sounding like that’s what’s happening right now, though I hope I’m wrong). However, August 15 will be exactly 5 years since their breakup began, and many on the now defunct People for a Clearer Phish (the best Phish discussion list of their time) had said they’ll be back for a 5 year “reunion”.
