Break out the hacky sacks! Since America's jam band of choice, Phish, announced last year that it would be taking an extended hiatus, Phish-head Nation has been without its most sacred rite: the four-hour-long guitar phreak-out.

Phish singer/guitarist Trey Anastasio, however, has been unable to bear his bandmates' lack of initiative, and now he arrives in New York for a solo stint. He's roped in a team of musicians that includes frequent Phish collaborators, and the crowd will likely be treated to the usual mishmash of jazz, funk, bluegrass, klezmer and whatever else leaks out of Anastasio's creative unconscious.
