Drew Carey, the celebrated comedian and actor, has expressed his profound admiration for Phish’s recent performances at The Sphere in Las Vegas. Carey attended one of the band’s four sold-out concerts and took to social media to share his enthusiastic reactions, describing the experience as life-changing.
Carey, 65, raved about his experience, writing, “I swear, I just talked to God.” He went on to compare watching Phish’s live show to “what it must feel like” to experience sex as a woman, saying, “If it’s even close, I’m [flying] to wherever tomorrow and getting the best p—y money can buy.”
Carey’s comments sparked both amusement and speculation among fans and followers. Some joked about his explicit language, while others shared his enthusiasm for the band. One fan wrote, “I sat behind @DrewFromTV and can attest to what he said! I had no idea it was his first show, but man was he into it! Was so cool seeing a new fan in real time.”
Phish expressed their excitement about playing at The Sphere, a new Las Vegas venue that opened in September 2023 and is known for its immersive video and audio. Last year, Phish celebrated their 40th anniversary, and the band will release their 16th studio album, Evolve, on July 12. Carey will have the opportunity to see the group perform again during their 26-date summer tour kicking off July 19 with three shows in Mansfield, Massachusetts.
