On Friday, Phish played their 11th of 13 shows that make up the Baker’s Dozen residency at Madison Square Garden in New York City. While a full report including The Skinny is coming on Saturday morning, one of the biggest stories of the night was the debut of a Radiohead cover.

Phish finally tackled a song by the British rock band, when the Vermont jam act played “Everything In Its Right Place” during Friday’s second set. Drummer Jon Fishman sang the lyrics, while Trey Anastasio used a KAOSSilator device featuring a sample of Fish’s voice throughout the cover instead of his guitar. “Everything In Its Right Place” contains the lyric “Yesterday I woke up sucking on a lemon,” which fit in with the “lemon poppy” donuts given to fans before the show.
