At the time, it was certainly the most authoritative and complete selection of shows, setlists and lyrics, a must-have for any Phish fan.

One of the most consulted books on my shelf! Along with detailed setlists and the song encyclopedia, the Companion has jamming charts and best-of reviews -- terrific for working on your live collection.

doesn't list anything post hiatus but is a solid reference guide with a lot of extras (interviews, show reviews, articles). i've gone through this thing cover to cover multiple times. i'm kind of obsessive when it comes to phish. doesn't list anything post hiatus but is a solid reference guide with a lot of extras (interviews, show reviews, articles). i've gone through this thing cover to cover multiple times. i'm kind of obsessive when it comes to phish.
