Having sold out a pre-party and post-party on July 4th during the Grateful Dead‘s 50th Anniversary Fare Thee Well shows in Chicago, Live for Live Music has added a third Pink Talking Fish show on July 5th. The show will act as a pre-party at Reggie’s, which is less than a mile from Soldier Field, from 3pm-6pm. The July 4th shows sold out in hours, so make sure to get on tickets fast!
Pink Talking Fish have been making waves recently, on the back of sold out shows and jam packed festival appearances. Formed by founding Particle bassist Eric Gould, PTF performs a fusion of Pink Floyd, The Talking Heads, and Phish, creating completely unique set lists full of teases and seamless segues. In honor of the Grateful Dead’s 50th Anniversary, Pink Talking Fish will be incorporating some Grateful Dead favorites into the set list for the first and quite possibly only time.
Recent set lists have included crazy segments like “Tube>Life During Wartime>Tube,” “Mike’s Song>Great Gig In The Sky>Burning Down The House>Weekapaug Groove,” and a mash up of “Makisupa Policeman” and “Brain Damage.” You never know exactly what’s coming next from this always evolving band, who all share a passion for all four of these acts. These dream set lists become reality when Pink Talking Fish hit the stage.
Reggie’s is the only venue located within walking distance of Soldier Field for those of you coming after the Grateful Dead show, and there will be shuttle buses running back and forth to pick people up. Doors will be open at 2 PM.
