Pink Talking Fish shows offer sets by Pink Floyd that include hits such as "Shine On You Crazy Diamond," "Welcome to the Machine," "Wish You Were Here" and "Another Brick in the Wall."
The show mixes and juxtaposes those with Talking Heads songs such as "Psycho Killer," "And She Was," "Once in a Lifetime" and "Take Me to the River."
Phish songs at recent shows have included "Wolfman's Brother," "Run Like an Antelope" and "Reba."
The band also has, on occasion, thrown in such incongruous covers as Edgar Winter Group's "Frankenstein," Boston's "Foreplay/Long Time" and Davie Bowie's "Life on Mars."
"Discovering connections is part of the fun: Pink Floyd’s 'On The Run' seamlessly fitting in the middle of the composition of Phish’s 'You Enjoy Myself,'" ArtsQuest's website says.
"Perfectly placing Phish’s 'Sand' into the groove of Talking Head’s 'Slippery People.' Segued collections from all three acts ... These ideas are the spirit behind Pink Talking Fish."
The website says "the story is ever evolving. The experience is always thrilling. No two shows are ever the same."
Pink Talking Fish last played Musikfest Cafe in March 2025.
