Phish\'s performance at Fenway Park on May 31, 2009, was a historic milestone for both the band and the venue. It served as the official opening night of their 2009 Summer Tour, carrying immense anticipation as it was their first full tour since reuniting earlier that March.Key highlights and trivia from this legendary evening include:• The Pitcher\'s Mound National Anthem:
Following a rainy weather delay, the band surprised the crowd by walking out onto a tarp over the pitcher\'s mound wearing custom Boston Red Sox jerseys. They performed an a cappella rendition of \"The Star-Spangled Banner\"-marking the first time they had sung the anthem publicly since 2003.• Three Big Song Debuts: This concert marked the very first live performance of three foundational songs in Phish\'s modern catalog:• \"Ocelot\" (Set 1)

The musical combo of Trey (guitar) and Mike (bass) is often romanticized by fans as the twin pillars of Phish\'s sonic engine.• The Yin and Yang Layout: On stage, they traditionally stand right next to each other on the left side of the stage (from the audience\'s perspective). This physical proximity allows them to constantly trade visual cues, passing musical motifs back and forth during heavy improvisation.• The \"Cactus\" and \"Big Red\" Dynamic: Known affectionately by fans by their nicknames—Trey as \"Big Red\" and Mike as \"Cactus\"-their distinct playing styles perfectly balance the band. Trey provides the bright, aggressive, soaring lead guitar melodies, while Mike delivers the deep, popping, foundational funk basslines that anchor the entire band\'s groove.• Side Projects and Lifetime Bond: Their creative chemistry is so tight that when Phish went on various hiatuses throughout the 2000s, Trey and Mike continually gravitated back to each other. They launched official duo tours together (frequently alongside the Benevento/Russo Duo) and have sat in on each other\'s solo band gigs for over four decades.
