From: Phish is about to make a polical statement this weekend

Phish as a band steers clear of politics almost always. Fish got into the fray with Bernie this year but other that that they're always quiet on that front. With a Star Spangled Banner opener in NYC (a few blocks from Trump tower) I think NYE is going to be related to the election. I think they finally found a political event they found worthy of speaking about after almost 30 years.

i dont think they will but i'd say it's a safe bet they don't like trump and that in and of itself is enough that i'm sure they feel not at all a need to make any kind of statement.

fwiw i hope they do not make any statement. one of the things i love about phish is that they are about the music, and really not much else.

fwiw

[Spoiler]

edit: could someone explain why they're downvoting op?

The Mockingbird Foundation

The Mockingbird Foundation is a non-profit organization founded by Phish fans in 1996 to generate charitable proceeds from the Phish community.

And since we’re entirely volunteer – with no office, salaries, or paid staff – administrative costs are less than 2% of revenues! So far, we’ve distributed over $1,000,000 to support music education for children – hundreds of grants in all 50 states, with more on the way.
