The Gilmour Project: Wish You Were Here

Saturday, December 13, 2025 - 7:30 PM EST

DOORS: 6:30pm | SHOW: 7:30pm

Tickets (including all fees)

Premium: $76.45 | Standard: $70.79 | Basic: $55.87


ALL-STAR BAND EXPLORING THE MUSIC OF PINK FLOYD CELEBRATES THE RELEASE OF PINK FLOYD POMPEII 4K With incredible 3 set shows ‘LIVE AT POMPEII’‘ THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON’‘ WISH YOU WERE HERE’ 

The Gilmour Project returns Fall 2025. They previously racked up 58 shows in North America to celebrate the1973 release of Pink Floyd’s masterwork, ‘The Dark Side of The Moon’–to immense press / fan acclaim & boffo box office. The Gilmour Project is 

Jeff Pevar (CSN, David Crosby/CPR, Joe Cocker, Ray Charles, Phil Lesh & Friends, Ricki Lee Jones). 

Berry Oakley (bass & vocals with Allman Betts Band, North Mississippi All-Stars, Blue Floyd & The Doors) 

Mark Karan (guitar & vocals with Bob Weir, RatDog, The Other Ones, Dave Mason). 

Scott Guberman (keyboard & vocals with Phil Lesh & Friends, Keystone Revisited). 

Pete Lavezzoli (drums with Black JGB, Oteil & Friends) 

The 5-piece, All-Star ensemble, quickly gained a reputation for flipping the ‘Tribute Band’ script on its head, with exploratory performances of iconic and deep cut Pink Floyd classics, David Gilmour-centric and solo compositions, and pulling other surprise classic rock masterpieces out of their hats. Their version of Kate Bush’s ‘Running Up That Hill’ appeared in their sets, weeks ahead of its ‘Stranger Things’ buoyed resurgence to the top of the charts and worldwide press … making the band appear spookily prescient. Starting from the heart of Pink Floyd’s musical structure, these superstars allow each other to soar in collaborative improvisation to deeply express the soul of this profound music. These lifelong, stadium musicians add a new, authentic edge to the virtuosic impact of the compositions, better than a mere tribute band. Floyd fanatics throughout North America (the U.S., Canada & Mexico) amazed at the agility of these sincerely dedicated and venerable artists as they dove deeply into a catalogue of hits, deep tracks and astonishing covers conjoined to overwhelming Pink Floyd reverie. Their original multimedia, ‘Floydian’ spectacle, eschewed poaching Floyd/Gilmour production assets and imagery–relying instead on visuals created by acclaimed (Blondie and Todd Rundgren) LD Hans Shoop and quadraphonic sound design and special audio FX by The Duke of New York (producer of Paul Simon’s ‘Graceland–The Remixes’). Each show was live streamed, modernizing a page from Grateful Dead’s nihilist marketing playbook, and making the performances available for free around the world for those unable to attend due to Covid concerns, or just unable to attend by being on the other side of the planet.
