Plus, Phish reunites on stage for the first time in four years and Chevy Chase accepts an award...
The four members of Phish accepted the Lifetime Achievement Award Wednesday night at the 7th Jammy Awards. Its the first time the band stood onstage together since their final concert at Coventry in 2004. The surprise reunion followed an emotional speech from longtime Phish photographer Danny Clinch.
Each member of Phish addressed the audience from the stage. Mike Gordon, Page McConnell and Jon Fishman delivered quick acceptance speeches, before handing over the microphone to Trey Anastasio, who thanked a number of key members in the Phish organization by name and described his former bandmates as "his oldest friends." He also talked at length about the strength and importance of the Phish community, before bowing alongside his bandmates and quietly exiting the stage.
The Jammy Awards featured performances by co-hosts Warren Haynes and Grace Potter (who ran through several classic rock covers with a house band that included Booker T. Jones), Rose Hill Drive with special guest Matisyahu (who covered the Flaming Lips), Keller Williams with Chevy Chase and several others.
When Williams later took top honors in the Song on the Year category, he sent Chase onstage in his place for a humorous speech that included the line "I want to thank Clive Davis just because I feel like I should."
The complete list of winners is below.
