SHAFTY (9pm Doors)

What began as essentially a goof in 2012 – a chance to throw down some familiar dancey beats and jam for whoever felt like listening - ultimately lit a spark under the off-the-radar powder keg of Phish fans in Portland, and with that Shafty was born!. Classic Phish gimmicks are in full force: trampolines, megaphones, choreographed dances, vacuum cleaner solos, instrument switching, and the secret language are alive and well at a Shafty show. The band's songlist evolves along side Phish's growing catalog. Now at over 300 songs performed, the repertoire includes brand new Phish material such as Turtle in the Clouds, Say it to Me SANTOS, Mercury, The Howling and more! A notable "Story of the Ghostbusters" mashup made news on JamBase.com, and the usual hijinks of slicing, dicing, and unpredictably rearranging songs continues. $12
