Phish: Clifford Ball ‘Dinner And A Movie’ Thanksgiving Weekend Broadcasts

During the Thanksgiving Weekend Phish will broadcast all six sets they performed at their first festival, The Clifford Ball, in the upstate town of Plattsburgh, New York August 16 & 17, 1996 as part of their Dinner And A Movie schedule. From JamBase.com:

The three sets from August 16 air this Friday, November 26 starting at 7 p.m. ET/4 p.m. PT with Phish’s three sets from August 17 to begin at 7 p.m. ET/4 p.m. PT this Saturday, November 27.

Both “Dinner And A Movie” live archival video broadcasts can be viewed via webcast.livephish.com or through the band’s YouTube channel. While the shows will air for free, those tuning in are encouraged to donate to Meals On Wheels of America. Contributions made to The WaterWheel Foundation will benefit an organization, “focused on keeping older Americans safe and nourished in communities across the country.”

The festival was released as a massive 7-DVD box set in 2009. It is long out of print, but worth tracking down one on the secondary market.
