Phish

By the time of the New Year's Eve performance at Madison Square Garden on December 31, 2010, Phish had released their album "Joy" in 2009. This album marked the band’s highly anticipated return after a five-year hiatus and showcased their continued evolution in sound and songwriting. The performance captured in the video features the song "Ocelot," which is known for its playful lyrics and intricate musical composition, demonstrating the band’s knack for blending rock, jazz, and improvisational elements. This era in Phish's career represented a rejuvenation of their creativity and live performance energy, culminating in sold-out shows in iconic venues like Madison Square Garden. Notably, New Year's Eve shows are a long-standing tradition for Phish, often filled with elaborate pranks and elaborate setlists, making them a highlight in their concert calendar.
