Phish - The White Album (1994)

Now that we've worked our way through all of Phish's Halloween shows we go right back to the beginning, and the one that started the whole thing. For their first-ever musical costume, Phish asked their fans what album they’d want to hear via a mailed-in voting system, and the overwhelming winner was The Beatles’ 'The White Album'. The show took place at the Glen Falls Civic Center, with Phish playing a full set of originals, followed by the 29-song Beatles record, then a third set of originals as well. The band had never performed any of the songs on 'The White Album' before, barring a one-off performance of  'Piggies' a decade prior, and fans were absolutely stunned, leaving the venue around 3:30 a.m. after a ridiculous and triumphant night. The legend of this show continues to propel Phish forward, as the show launched a Halloween legend that is still going on today.
