I really like this. And I guess now I need to see Phish!
BTW, I saw your images of Heman Bekele, Time's 2024 Kid of the Year, and realized it was "you" only because I encountered you here on Substack. FWIW. Great story, and I love your cover shot! https://time.com/6996507/heman-bekele/
Having dealt with Phish phans in the past, I can understand why the band would be wary of bringing a true believer backstage. I worked with Trey Anastasio once, away from Phish, and enjoyed it, he was very easy-going. Excellent music.

In the 70's you could bring an SLR and 200mm lens into shows and they just smiled at you.
Today Rock is so programmed that your story is more the rule than the exception. Imagine that, trying to give a band some more good press.
Sadly, they don't give a crap with the crowds they always have.
You rocked the assignment. The crowd shots are great!

I love these images!! They are so good!
What camera did you use and/or how did you process them?
