Trey Anastasio: interview in Guitar World

Trey Anastasio was interviewed by Alan Paul for Guitar World. They discuss practising, amps, and putting on special shows with Phish like different sets and visuals for the 4-night run at the Sphere in Las Vegas and performing Gamehendge at Madison Square Garden:

It’s always been like that, which leads to the Sphere, where I wrote all this music for the atrium, so there was original music when you walked in the door and different walk-on music every night, Easter eggs that led you to the opening song. And we had special between-set music every night, and every single song had a visual that alludes to the narrative but was never literal.

We had conversations about every one of these things, which I believe is honoring your fans’ commitment. Everybody wins, and hopefully it never feels like we’re just here making money, playing our hits repeatedly. Like, the Gamehendge thing was so much work for a solid year, so everybody goes, ‘Why don’t you just keep doing it after all that?’ Because we did it!
