Just last weekend, Pink Talking Fish went all out for their headlining debut at the Capitol Theatre, performing a live rendition of Talking Heads’ famed Stop Making Sense concert with the music of Phish and Pink Floyd interpolated. The band also went all out with guests, as they welcomed vocalists, horn players, and other musicians to the stage for a true marathon performance.
One of the highlights of the night (of which there were many!) came in the form of a cover of Phish’s “Gumbo,” with Leo Nocentelli (The Meters) and the full Turkuaz horn section joining PTF on stage. What a jam!
Fortunately, the Cap has provided a pro-shot video of “Gumbo” for us all to enjoy. Watch Pink Talking Fish in action, below.
