This really will be IT. After the Coventry festival, Phish is
over!
Says Trey: "We're Done." Responds a fan, "Don't say the morning's come. Don't say the morning's come so soon. Must we end this way, when so much here is hard to lose? Love is in the air, I know it is. Such moments as this are too few. Oh, it's all up to you. It's all up to you."
