It Appears Phish Ditched the LED Boards for This Summer Tour
Phish and their crew set up camp at Milwaukee’s Bradley Center for the week as they prepare for the summer kickoff in nearby Chicago, beginning on Friday. A report from someone inside the venue seems to suggest that Lighting Director Chris Kuroda has done away with the LED boards that certainly brought a high-level production to Phish’s light show.

A return to an older format makes sense as to not block those sitting behind the stage during their thirteen shows at Madison Square Garden. On top of that, the new twist was met with largely mixed reviews. Also important to remember that there could be more to this setup as it pieces itself together over the next couple of days.

UPDATE: More views, with sound!
