Tuesday, 8 September, 2026
Send us Fan MailHi everybody and welcome to Attendance Bias. I am your host Brian Weinstein. Before we get started with today’s episode, I wanted to remind you that you can support Attendance Bias by rating and reviewing the show wherever you get your podcasts, you can follow Attendance Bias on social media, and you can visit www.buymeacoffee.com/attendancebias and donate anything you can. Now, onto the show:It’s only been a short while, but we are back previewing venues here on Attendance Bias. After Phish’s fantastic and innovative summer tour, it felt like we had maybe 5 minutes to breathe and collect ourselves before they announced the 2026 fall tour. And we are all using the word “tour” loosely. The whole tour is 8 shows in 4 venues in 10 days, all in October. So once the tour was announced, I went straight to work reaching out to find fans who would be excited to talk about each venue that will host the band.First up is a venue that made its bones as a legendary place to see Phish fairly recently: Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City. Situated right on the boardwalk, the art deco venue has hosted Phish twice before, both for Halloween runs. But today’s episode covers more than that. Today’s guest, Adam Pritchard, is an old school fan who has seen every show Phish has played in Atlantic City and doesn’t live very far away. Together, we review the long history of the renovated venue, offer our opinions of almost every show played there, and take a couple of conversational detours to the other shows Phish has played in Atlantic City in 2012, 2021, and 2022. But I don’t want to spoil it. Whether or not you’re going to AC this October, enjoy today’s conversation about Phish’s history at Boardwalk Hall and Atlantic City as we get ready to see them again on October 2, 3, and 4, 2026.Support the show
