Why You Should Go: Love ’em or hate ’em, Phish is one of the most innovative bands performing today both in terms of the musical terrain they cover during their performances and in terms of their light show. While the four men on stage may focus on making their instruments sound the best they possibly can as the music twist, turns, and darts through strange passages, their longtime lighting director Chris Kuroda fills the role of the 5th band member as he dazzles the crowd with brilliant light shows that are nearly perfectly synchronized with the music coming from the stage. It’s a sight to behold to say the least.

Phish’s 2010 outing was named one of the “25 Must-See Summer Tours” by SPIN, which praised the band’s “epic, musically adventurous shows,” while The Denver Post called their return to Telluride “an event that ranks on the very top shelf of the 27-year-old band’s trophy case.” This weekend’s concerts will mark the band’s first-ever performances at Dick’s Sporting Goods Park.
