Phish Performs 'Wombat' Live at Boardwalk Hall, Atlantic City
On October 31, 2013, Phish performed at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, NJ, showcasing their innovative and improvisational style during a Halloween-themed concert. This recording features the song "Wombat," which is part of their album "Fuego," released the following year in 2014. Leading up to this live event, Phish had just released their previous studio album, "Joy," in 2009, marking a significant period in their career after their hiatus from 2004 to 2009. The Halloween show is particularly memorable for its tradition of the band covering an album in its entirety, a practice they have maintained since their early years. This concert also demonstrated the band's unique ability to fuse complex compositions with live spontaneity, a hallmark of their performances. The Atlantic City show reflects the band’s sustained popularity and creative evolution, bridging their past work with new material as they continue to captivate audiences.
