Phish has picked their next free webcast for next Tuesday’s Dinner And A Movie celebration livestream event, this time featuring the band’s Riviera Maya show from Mexico on January 15th, 2017 and Page offering up tacos as the menu for the evening.
Watch the full performance below.
The band originally chose the “Ghost” from set one as a highlight from the evening, which you can watch below. Don’t miss that “Little Drummer Boy” tease in there either. 🥁
Check out the note from Page below for the evening’s recipes.
We all love tacos in my family. We keep them in our regular rotation of meals, and we’ve celebrated many birthday dinners with tacos.
Heather wrote down some of our favorite recipes. We also enjoy fish tacos, so please use whatever fillings suit your diet and taste. Anything goes. That is one of the beautiful things about tacos. Another beauty of the taco is that it’s kind of a Mexican sandwich. And you all know how I feel about sandwiches.
A little context about the holiday: Cinco de Mayo is not celebrated nearly as much by our southern cousins as it is north of the border. Cinco de Mayo is also called the Anniversary of the Battle of Puebla. It commemorates a military victory in 1862 over the French forces of Napoleon III. It is not a celebration of Mexican independence. The Mexican war for independence against Spain ended in 1821. I just learned some of this so I thought I would share.
We all hope you enjoy the dinner, and the movie.
