Phish Full Concert – Flynn Theater Benefit Performance

Venue: Flynn Center for the Performing Arts Location: Burlington, Vermont, United States Date: March 18, 1997

On March 18, 1997, Phish performed a memorable concert at the Flynn Theater in Burlington, Vermont, serving as a benefit for Lake Champlain and coinciding with the launch of their signature Ben & Jerry’s flavor, Phish Food®. At this point in their career, Phish had recently released their studio album "Billy Breathes" in 1996, which marked a phase of increasing mainstream recognition and artistic maturity for the band. The live recording captures the band's eclectic blend of genres and improvisational prowess, which had become the hallmark of their live performances. Notably, the concert is emblematic of Phish's commitment to philanthropy, as the proceeds from the event were directed to environmental causes through The WaterWheel Foundation, further solidifying their connection to their local community and fans. This concert exemplifies Phish's unique ability to intertwine musical artistry with social responsibility.
