Over the weekend, Pink Talking Fish performed a three-night run across the Northeast, with dates at Buffalo, NY’s Buffalo Iron Works on Thursday, October 6th; Rochester, NY’s Funk ‘n Waffles on Friday, October 7th; and Toronto, ON’s The Mod Club on Saturday, October 8th. During these shows, the beloved Pink Floyd, Talking Heads, and Phish tribute group laid out three of their characteristically high-octane shows. However, as a means to pay tribute to the late Tom Petty, the iconic rock star who passed away last Monday, each night, the group encored with a classic Petty tune. In Buffalo, the group ended their Thursday show with a heartfelt rendition of “Free Fallin'”. The next night, the group encored with “You Wreck Me” in Rochester. Closing out their three-night run, Pink Talking Fish ended the final of their three shows with a fiery performance of “Mary Jane’s Last Dance.”
