     These rumors have been floating around the internet and Phantasytour for the past few weeks. Most notably, the Telluride rumor has been gaining steam though some wonder the ecological footprint that 5,000 raging phans would leave on the quaint mountain town.  The Osage Creek Performing Arts Center in Arkansas holds some weight. There have been murmurs from local media that Phish is being actively sought to inaugurate the new venue.  We can all expect Phish to make the standard rounds to Deer Creek & Alpine Valley. SPAC and Darien also seem like standard procedure for Phish. Can't wait for round 2 at the Gorge for Phish 3.0. Far and away the best weekend of my summer '09. 

     This preliminary set of rumors seems to indicate Phish is trying to integrate more shows in the southeast and west this summer. Im personally hoping that Paulo Soleri, NM becomes reality.  Seeing Phish in such an intimate venue surrounded by the spiritual ambiance all that Santa Fe has to offer would make any live show special, let alone a Phish show. The preliminary festival rumor that Phish will play Pocono Raceway seem speculative at best.  Phish is most-likely trying to finalize the summer dates and probably have not turned their attention to planning a festival yet.  But hey, its fun to hope isn't it? Thats what Phish is all about.  Please feel free to comment  with any rumors left off the list...
