180-192 Main Street, Burlington, VT Nectars - First Floor A long-standing landmark on Main Street in Burlington, Nectar s restaurant and bar has been the headquarters for thousands of local, regional and national music acts. From Phish to Grace Potter, from reggae to rock, Nectar s Bar and Lounge is THE place to see live music in downtown Burlington. The building itself has a long history of entertaining. Originally home to a savings and loan business, the building was purchased to create a two-story restaurant/lounge called the Hi-Hat. The chandelier that hangs over the main room today is a relic of the grand Hi-Hat. In 1975, Nectar Rorris bought the building to create the infamous Nectar s. The stage became legendary when a group of then-unknown local musicians known as Phish began to play regularly, sowing the seeds of their enormous following.

Artist History 180-192 Main Street, Burlington, VT Press In a recently published article in Seven Days Magazine, the bar/night club is recognized for it s 40th anniversary and contribution to the music scene in Vermont. Below are a few short excerpts... Between '84 and '89, Phish played a total of 44 shows at Nectar's, many of them three-night runs on off nights Sunday through Tuesday. As their popularity exploded, the band inevitably outgrew the club. Though Rorris would relax his strict rules regarding start times and the length of set breaks for Phish, there was one commandment even they couldn't violate: no cover charge. And that lore isn't lacking. "It was a meeting place," recalls musician Frazier of Nectar's early days. "It's where you'd go to make plans for the night or maybe just hang out there." Nectar's was also an extension of Burlington's halls of democracy. "A lot of times you'd see local politicians having meetings, talking about whatever it is politicians talk about,"
