Phish Performs 'Watcher of the Skies' by Genesis at Rock & Roll Hall of Fame

Venue: Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Location: New York, NY, United States Date: April 15, 2010

In April 2010, Phish was experiencing a resurgence in their career after reuniting in 2009 following a hiatus. By this time, they had just released their studio album "Joy," which came out in September 2009. The album was significant as it marked the band's return to the studio after a five-year break, showcasing their continued evolution and creativity. The performance of "Watcher of the Skies" at the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony for Genesis highlighted Phish's respect for musical pioneers and their commitment to celebrating influential artists. This event underscored Phish's role in the progressive rock and jam band scene, as well as their knack for blending genres and paying homage to rock history. The choice to cover Genesis further illustrated their eclectic influences and willingness to showcase their versatility in a live setting.
