Trey Anastasio Wonders If It’s a ‘Coincidence’ His Daughters Were at Taylor Swift’s Eras Tour Show Where Platform Malfunctioned

Phish singer/guitarist Trey Anastasio's two grown daughters zoomed over to Europe to catch one of Taylor Swift's Eras Tour shows.

As any Swiftie will know, seeing the Eras Tour in Europe is often cheaper than catching it stateside, which is why the two women hopped over the pond, according to their dad. Anastasio was referring, of course, to a show in Dublin on June 29 during which a stage malfunction during “The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived” in which the elevated section Swift was standing on failed to lower when it was supposed to, leaving her momentarily stranded in air. Anastasio was also thinking about the New Year’s Eve show in 2019 when each member of Phish performed from a color-coded, elevated platform above the stage to make room for their color-coordinated dancers.
