Phish will reunite next year for their first shows since 2004. The band will perform on March 6th, 7th and 8th in Hampton, Virginia at the Hampton Coliseum and will announce a full 2009 itinerary early next year. Phish’s legendary November 1998 stand at the Hampton Coliseum was released as the boxed set Hampton Comes Alive.

Hampton Coliseum GM Joe Tsao told Billboard how the reunion shows came together, explaining, “It’s very simple: I got a call from the band saying we want to come back and I said ‘come on!… We’re very, very happy about this. It’s something very special.”

Tickets go on sale to the general public on Saturday, October 18th, at 10 a.m. ET.

On November 18th, Phish will release At The Roxy. The eight-CD box set chronicles the band’s three-night stint from February 1993 at Atlanta’s The Roxy nightclub.

This summer Phish let fans know that they had been working again with the help of producer Steve Lilywhite. There’s been no announcement as to whether a new studio album is in the pipeline.
