Pinky and the Floyd: Wish You Were Here – 50th Anniversary Tour
Experience one of the most iconic albums in rock history brought to life by one of the nation’s top Pink Floyd tribute bands. Hailing from Bozeman, Montana, Pinky and the Floyd are known for their massive sound, spot-on detail, and electrifying live performances. With soaring vocals, precision musicianship, and a deep reverence for the source material, they deliver a concert experience that captures the spirit and power of the original.
This is not just a tribute show — it’s a sonic journey through the heart of Wish You Were Here, performed start to finish with the same passion, energy, and emotion that made Pink Floyd legendary. Even without the elaborate touring light rig, the music itself takes center stage, filling the room with the expansive, immersive sound that has earned Pinky and the Floyd their reputation as one of the best in the country.
