I lost this somewhere along the way; I might pick up the second edition for purposes of nostalgia, but in all honesty the content's better had off the internet these days (we've come a long way since rec.music.phish). At the time, it was certainly the most authoritative and complete selection of shows, setlists and lyrics, a must-have for any Phish fan. Then again, anyone as obsessively into Phish as to make use of the Companion surely already knows about it, while anyone else has no need for it...more
doesn't list anything post hiatus but is a solid reference guide with a lot of extras (interviews, show reviews, articles). i've gone through this thing cover to cover multiple times. i'm kind of obsessive when it comes to phish.

One of the most consulted books on my shelf! Along with detailed setlists and the song encyclopedia, the Companion has jamming charts and best-of reviews -- terrific for working on your live collection.
Ever wondered about one of the greatest bands to ever step on stage? A read through this travelogue of their career will fill you in with everything you need to know.
I guess i will have to describe this one as "read" even though it is one of those "ongoing book projects".
This is an essential reference for any Phish fan.
Five stars because I'm a contributor! Flame on!
A must have for any Phan.
