I just happen to be a huge Pink Floyd fan. Unfortunately, I never had the opportunity to see them in concert. So, for my birthday my wife bought tickets to the Australian Pink Floyd Show here in Nuremberg. I watched some videos of these guys on youtube and must say I am quite intrigued. They do the entire laser and light show, apparently modeled after the late 80's and 1994 tours.
Of course, in the beginning I was very skeptical. I mean, recreating Pink Floyd almost seems sakreligious. But, I was quite impressed with what I saw.
Has anyone seen these guys play????

I have seem them twice, even though I don't like tribute bands.
The 1st they did an assortment of Floyd stuff in a small clup, and the 2nd time they did the whole of DSOTM (30th anniversary of the album release). Complete with the circular projector screen, backing singers and sax player.
They put on a very good show, with pretty atthentic tones, happily they do add a little of their own interpretation into solos and stuff.
As far as I am concerned if they are good enough to play Gilmours birthday party, and the end of tour party for the Division Bell tour, they have something going for them.
They also do an nice range of T shirts

Great, I am looking forward to it! Apparently their egos are in tact, as tickets were quite expensive.
