For this week’s installment of their Dinner And A Movie broadcast series, Phish will stream their Dec. 29, 2018 performance at Madison Square Garden. The show was a part of the band's 2018 New Years Eve run.
The featured recipe this week is vegetable Shoyu ramen, and it comes courtesy of bassist Mike Gordon. "For the musician on the go, or, ahm, the musician on the stay-at-home, or for the anyone on the anywhere, ramen can be a great option," Gordon wrote in the band's Facebook post. "For example, when I’m staying in Portland, Oregon it’s been a tradition to have the coconut curry ramen from Boxer Ramen. And here in Burlington, Gaku Ramen has been a great, delicious favorite. I love their Shoyu broth, and I add miso mushrooms and bamboo shoots as extras. Personally, I take the noodles out to honor my low starch diet, but we’ll keep em in for y’alls’s recipe!" Check out the full recipe below.
According to the band's post, "This week, we have selected the Afya Foundation as our beneficiary. Donate any time at phish.com/waterwheel. Afya’s primary mission is to improve global health by rescuing surplus medical supplies and delivering them to underserved health systems around the world. During the COVID-19 crisis, Afya has turned their focus and is delivering PPE to New York healthcare workers, with a special focus on healthcare systems supporting vulnerable populations."
The featured show itself contains many highlights. The first set featured a type-two "Blaze On," a buttery segue from "46 Days" into "Cities" and a closing "Wolfman's Brother" with a "Party Time" jam. The second set shines even brighter, featuring and incredible sequence of "Tweezer" > "Death Don't Hurt Very Long" -> "Tweezer." Check out the complete setlist below!
