From Caimen Ruff, the first poster for the Charleston shows. Caimen has been a Phish fan since she was 15 and has been to around 100 shows since 1993. she loves Phish and has been working on her art lately so she decided to draw her first tour poster.
Named after the alligator, the iron work in the lettering are patterns I found in historic Charleston. The bridge is a newer bridge in Charleston that is beautiful. The guy in the corner, is a wookie or swamp thing? The Palmetto and crescent moon are from the SC flag. The piece was created using prismacolor markers and pen on vellum and measures 11×17. There are 20 posters in this run. Only 10 prints remain and are available exclusively on the PhanArt Blog

Brian McGregor is a Boston based artist who has worked Visual Design for several Phish festivals including Coventry and Festival 8. He got his BFA from Bowdoin College and currently works for other festivals such as Bonnaroo and All Good. Why does he love Phish? They were the first band I was able to get into a groove with while creating art. When songs on the radio maybe lasted 3 minutes, being able to draw to a 20 minute YEM jam helped take my work to another level. No wonder why all the Pop listenin’ kids got ADHD, who needs adderall when you’ve got the Phish jams!
These posters are hand drawn 11×17 color glossy prints printed on 80lb. paper. The cost is $15 each with free shipping.
From AJ Masthay: Hello and happy fall from Masthay Studios! With fall tour right around the corner, it’s time to start releasing some individual prints!

The Halloween Triptychs will be available the next day, Thursday October 7th at 12 noon EST. Editions for each run are small with only 66 sets of the Halloween prints and 75 for each of the others. Prints are my standard size, approx. 14″ x 23″, and all are on Canson Edition Bright White paper stock.

From Whysnow, your Wook Merit Badge from this fall.
You can get these by finding Whysnow, as he will have a handful to sell in person in Atlantic City. Just like in Telluride, he will be wearing a yellow sleeping monkey shirt the first 2 days of the run.
Who’s up for an old school Northeast run? I am.. I am…!!! Providence, Mullins Center, Atlantic City!?! yeah, count me in. I know, everyone says we’re spoiled in the northeast, well… I agree. Think of it this way, it’s a wonderful excuse to come see the beautiful foliage.
I digress, so I’ve been getting alot of questions about whether or not Ill be doing another mini-subscription for this tour. The answer my friends is YES. I think the 2nd leg summer sub worked out very for all those involved. Once images were released I got many emails from happy sub holders who were thankful they didnt have to worry about onsale dates and times.
So this time around the subscriptions will include a minimum of 6 prints. Currently slated are Amherst, Providence, Augusta and a special triptych for the Halloween shows, but these are up for debate and may change (okay Halloweens are already completed so they wont change… a little tease of the 29th is pictured above). If you are a fan of my work, especially past Halloween editions, I guarantee you will not want to miss out on these. All subscriptions will have matching numbers and specific number requests will be honored if available. I will be offering only 20 subscriptions for this leg with a limit of 2 subs per person.
Cost for each subscription is $200 which equates to a $5 discount on the cost of the prints themselves and I’ll cover insured priority mail shipping. All prints will be shipped together once the final edition is completed.
Subscriptions will be available this Friday, September 17th at 12 noon EST. A paypal button will appear on www.masthaystudios.com/subscription
As always feel free to email me at info@masthaystudios.com with any questions, concerns, comments, etc.

Initial analysis indicates that Phish has some sort of grudge against the west coast, and that those 3 Greek shows should hold you over for about 10-11 months. Phish also seems to like being near home, spending 9 out of 15 dates of fall tourin the northeast. This bodes well for people who live in the northeast, as well as the potential for extras, with less college kids from the midwest and south coming to see Phish. But there’s always Umphrey’s McGee and WidespreadPanic to hold you over till New Years. It’s not the same, but if you pretend its sometime between 2005-2008 when Phish wasn’t touring, it will feel right. Maybe not completely right, but close.
But yeah, Midwest got hosed on tour dates. What did you guys do?
Some Atlantic City tips – bring condoms. This goes for dudes as well as the ladies. Understand that Atlantic City is a CDC hazard site and you will most likely leave with an STD. A bachelor party I attended in 2005 netted 5 cases of the Clap alone in one hotel room. Wear these condoms during the show, just to be safe. Rashes and diseases sneak up all over during the stay there. They don’t come out during the day usually, but around 6pm, load up on lots of hand-sanitizer. For your skin, not to drink. The predictable hot lot item? Penicillin. By the bottle. Going rates in early fall tour trading on the PhanArt Stock Exchange show initial projections to be 1 for 3, 2 for 5 (143245) but this could rise as tour heats up. Diseases are attracted to heat. Stay vigilant fans. Also a hot lot item:
Mainly in Utica, but don’t be surprised to see it in…. Oh nevermind, it’s only going to be a hot lot item in Utica. And cheap as shit too. Enjoy the deliciousness that is, Utica Club. ANYONE CAN JOIN THE UTICA CLUB! We’ll see you this fall folks! Stay tuned for updates from the road, as well as phan made art for sale here on the PhanArt Blog!
