Here's some advice from a Tragically Hip, DMB, and Phish fan:

First off, don't expect a concert anything like a DMB concert. DMB concerts are much closer to Hip concerts, while Phish is a jam band and every one of their concerts are completely different. They don't have much studio stuff worth listening to, so it can be a bit daunting getting into their stuff. Regardless, do yourself a favour a check out the Phish gig if you can. It may blow your mind, or you it might not be your thing... you won't know unless you give it a try! I saw them 5 times last year and they blew me away each time (although I'll admit the five concerts I went to are generally regarded by Phish fans as the best five of the year.) The Phish vibe at big festivals can be lame compared to the vibe at a normal Phish gig or a Phich-only festival. That being said, last year at Bonnaroo Festival Phish played a couple songs with Bruce Springsteen, so who knows, you may get a treat?
