Phish has announced a benefit concert in their home state of Vermont to benefit the recovery from floods that were the result of Hurricane Irene. The concert will be held on September 14th at the Champlain Valley Exposition in Essex Junction, Vermont.

General admission tickets will be $75.00. In addition, a special "Friend of WaterWheel" package will be available for $250.00. The package will include preferred parking, a reserved box seat, a limited edition poster and access to a Vermont craft beer tent.
