Yup. The band started a tradition on Halloween '94 of playing a "musical costume" during the second set of a three set show to celebrate the holiday.

The first and second year, they took votes from the fans. Both years "Joe's Garage" by Frank Zappa won by landslides. However, in Frank's will, he stipulated that he requested that two of the songs on that album were to never be played live again. In deference to that request, Phish played The Beatles "The White Album" in a four and a half hour concert at Glens Falls, NY that let out at about 2 am.

The next year in Chicago they played The Who's "Quadrophenia"

In 1996, I saw them play "Remain in Light" in Atlanta.

In 1998, they played The Velvet Underground's "Loaded" in Las Vegas (the last halloween show).

The show after the Las Vegas show in Utah (11/2/98), Phish decided that they didn't play enough covers the previous show, and played Pink Floyd's "Darkside of the Moon" in its entirety during the second set.

Man, I miss Phish.
