Last Night Photos: Trey Anastasio at Atlanta Symphony Hall
Posted by Joeff Davis @joeffly on Fri, Feb 10, 2012 at 3:13 PM
Freaks clashed with high society last night as Trey Anastasio, leader of the band Phish, performed with 95 members of the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra. The sold-out show at Atlanta's Symphony Hall was the first of a four-city tour in which Anastasio will play with the Pittsburgh Symphony, Colorado Symphony, and the Los Angeles Philharmonic.
In Atlanta, Anastasio had two rehearsals with the symphony in which they were taught such Phish tunes as "First Tube," "Divided Sky," and "You Enjoy Myself" — all of which were performed Thursday night as Anastasio switched between electric guitar, acoustic guitar, and lead vocals. Much of the crowd was sharply dressed for the occasion — from tuxedos to tie-dyed tees — and greeted Anastasio with a standing ovation when he took the stage. "It was the loudest cheering I have ever heard in that hall," ASO trumpet player Mike Tiscione said after the show.

Joeff, you failed to mention that the ASO bar kiosk allowed patrons a choice of imported artisanal papers — Japanese rice, Florentine print and French marbled — when purchasing blotter tabs.

oh and also portajohns to have sex in, and a tanning bed to simulate passing out on the hood of your car while you're out on tour.
