Not sure if this should be a new thread or in the 2018 Summer Tour thread.

ANNOUNCING CURVEBALL
Curveball, Phish’s eleventh festival and the first to be named Curveball, will take place August 17-19, 2018 at Watkins Glen International in Watkins Glen, NY. Located amidst the rolling hills of central New York’s Finger Lakes region, the site offers an abundance of campsites and is just a short drive from numerous Northeastern cities. Curveball continues a tradition that began with The Clifford Ball in August of 1996.

Tickets for Curveball go on sale Friday, March 2nd at Noon ET. Tickets will allow individuals to access the camping areas, however every vehicle entering the festival site will require a separate camping vehicle pass. These passes are sold on a per vehicle basis, so you can save money and reduce your environmental impact by carpooling. All Glen Close camping and on-site accommodation packages include a vehicle pass. Details about Weekend passes, camping, on-site accommodations, and travel packages are available on this site.

We’ve posted the first wave of information about the festival and will continue to update with travel info, FAQs, guidelines, event info, Russian propaganda, and much much more, so keep checking back.

Just when you think you have your summer vacation plans worked out, Phish throws you a… Curveball. :sunglasses:

Unlikely that I’ll be there.

Though the conspicuous lack of any “there will be more more tour dates announced for this year” means only one thing…FALL TOUR!

See you in Vegas on Halloween!

I was kind of planning on hitting the show in Raleigh and visiting friends on August 10th, but this might change things.

Also on the table is the Austin show, but that depends on whether or not ghost is able to make the trip down there. I couldn’t in good conscience see Phish in Texas without him.

so is this like a sandy kofax curveball or more a 12-6 curveball? or is more a slerve ball… the break your wrist kind… when you throw it you have to basically release it like you are trying to break your wrist?

We’re talking a Rich Hill “1:1 Curveball to fastball ratio” drop into the heart of the zone Curveball.
