8/13/2004: Belated McShow

Hi folks!

Sorry for this last-minute McShow. With Burning Man
coming up so quick, I am ridiculously short on time
these days. This means that the McShow will be a
little sparse for the next few weeks. My apologies for
shows that I will inevitably miss in my listings and
for the lack of discriptions. At the moment I need to
get the info out as quick as possible. Enjoy!

FRIDAY 8|13

~Phish on KQED-HD (channel 188) @ 10:30pm~
KQED will be airing a high-definition, surround-sound
90-minute special on Phish's big IT festival from last
year. It was apparently shot and produced by an
award-winning production team and mixes interviews
with live show footage. See below for more showtimes
on channel 188 (HD) and KQED channel 9.

This is a live simulcast of Phish's last concert ever

and Sunday shows are going to be broadcast and shown
live in the theater. Both days are also sold out, but
if you get ahold of a ticket I'm sure it will be a
pretty amazing thing to see.
