That’s right, it’s time to show off your skills and draw the Phish logo! We don’t feature the Phish logo on PhanArt but it’s high time we do. Here’s one sample effort:
Pretty good huh? No doubt you can do better. Draw your best Phish logo and Tweet @phanart. Best one wins a Phish logo sticker and probably some more stuff.
Check out what others have done with the Phish logo!

Once again, our patience, or lack thereof, has paid off with another great Summer Tour that covers the East Coast and returns us back to Dick’s once again. In case you missed it, here’s the tour announcement video.
Translation: ” Here is what you must do. You must go to the edge of the city. There, you will find him. He will not be like you hope. In fact, he might even be someone you wouldn’t look at. He might look like [UNCLEAR] for the local real estate company. But it is him. Ask him something. He will say, “What is it?” You will say “You know… like we discussed.” It’s very important that you use these words. [UNCLEAR SETENCE] He will temporarily disappear. Although he is leaving, you will examine your phone. Perhaps you exclaim something about the weather. Then he will return your target. Exchanging the target, you will give him the novel “Hawaii” by James Michener. [UNCLEAR] from a child pretending he is James Michener. Once you have your target, [UNCLEAR] this page in order to understand how to rescue our species from extinction. Thanks! You really helped us [UNCLEAR].”
What does it mean? I think they are just screwing with us, but who really knows?
You can find PhanArt from Great Woods through Northerly Island, at Dick’s and maybe a few other shows along the way. Expect another PhanArt Poster and Pin Exhibition, this time in Chicago. More details to come over the next two months.

Reba’s Sweet Jam shirts from Brian Boj are part of his Phifty-Two Weeks series of art, where he creates one piece of Phish-inspired art each week for all of 2014. This is Part 10 of the series.
“This week’s art project is inspired by the Reba solo/jam. “Reba’s Sweet Jam” is actual jam/jelly! You can crack these open and make a mean PB&J. Phish.net points out that the word “ryba” in the Hebrew language means “jam” (specifically jam for toast). I have to admit, I did not know this when I was creating this project, it was a happy coincidence. The jar’s label has a picture of Reba and says “Reba’s Sweet Jam – the phinest in the nation since 1989″. The song lyrics talk about how once Reba finishes her creation and has a taste – “she knew that what she made would be the finest in the nation”. The back of the jar has nutrition information, and ingredients. The true ingredients are not listed – I’ve switched them with the ingredients of Reba’s concoction from the song.”
Reba’s Sweet Jam is 100% real grape jam/jelly, a mini print on a jar. Each print is signed and numbered.
Limited edition of 25 shirts, with sizes Large and XLarge available. Shirts are printed on sapphire with navy ink on Gildan 50/50. The price is $25 for a shirt/jam combo, with free shipping and 10% of the profits from this sale will be donated to The Mockingbird Foundation.
Great thanks and appreciation goes to the following artists who were featured on PhanArt over November and December of 2013! With these donations, PhanArt and Friends raised more than $5,000 for the 2013 calendar year and over $14,000 since August 2009 for The Mockingbird Foundation. Immense gratitude goes to the dozens of artists and supportive patrons who made this possible. Through their incredible generosity and spreading their art on PhanArt, these donations to The Mockingbird Foundation will help to promote music education throughout the country.

I spent over 45 hours carving the block in total (much longer then usual), not including the printing and design time. I have been working on it since Dicks and am very excited about how it turned out. Special thanks to Chris Kuroda for the inspiration.”
The print measures 15″ x 21.5″ in a limited edition of 100. This print will ship at the end of February. Buy now for $35 plus shipping.
On December 31st, 2003 in Miami, Phish played (what I consider to be) one of their best New Years shows ever – the whole run was solid, being in Florida again for Phish brought back memories of Big Cypress four years prior, and each show of the run had standout moments – Jibboo, Suzy and Hood from 12/28, Rock n Roll > Twist > Boogie On and the double encore of 12/29, Sand > Shafty and George Clinton and P-Funk joining the band on 12/30 (among many other highlights that night) – so 12/31 was going to be the icing on the cake.
With great seats and planning in advance, the following footage was recorded. Here it is, for the first time. Let’s hope they return to American Airlines Arena this New Years Eve.
