Thank you for the info Enigma. I'll follow it up.

The Australian Pink Floyd are very good and with a good sense of humour.  They have some funny T shirts too.  Animals with a Kangaroo hovering over Battersea power station and Dark Side of the Moon with the prism as a map of Aus.

 

Well worth seeing.

 Salt Lake City was an awesome show, again.  It's my fourth time seeing them there.  The first set didn't seem to get the crowd's attention like the second set.

CheeseJaguar wrote: I saw their show last night (The 26th) at the San Jose Civic Center, They put on a pretty mean show.  The music was top notch, the laser-light show was amazing, and some of the songs were breathtaking. They played the set that enigma posted, very good show.

Sounds like you enjoyed it !
I think there are 1 or 2 personnel changes for this tour, but from what I've read, they are just as good as usual.

That would be cool to hear them perform "Astronomy Domine,' but I'm not sure how well they could duplicate Syd's "chaotic" style.  I personally didn't think they did a great job with "Learning to Fly," but they've probably mastered it by now.  I wish they would just play the whole "Animals" album; not just one song each time.

Really?  I'd be very interested to hear that setlist.

Oh, and "Mother" in the Encore.  That will be nice.

For those interested, here is the set list from the first show :-

1st set

Dark Side of the Moon

2nd set

Shine On pts 1-5
Learning to Fly
Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun
What Do You Want From Me
Sheep
Not Now John
Another Brick in the Wall Pt 2
Have a Cigar

One of These Days
Comfortably Numb

Mother
Run Like Hell

Hi,

my first post......

I have seen these guys twice in the UK this year, they did an 'album' tour, followed by a few 'best of' shows.

For the 'Album' tour, the first half of the show contained an entire album (one of DSOTM, WYWH or Animals), the second half is a 'best of the rest'.

They play for about 2 1/2 hours in total with a 20 minute interval.

Birmingham NIA Setlist (album tour) :-

Wish You Were Here:-

Shine on pt1
Welcome to the Machine
Have a Cigar
Wish you were Here
Shine on pt2

 
Astronomy Domine
Learning to Fly
Pigs
Time
Great Gig..
Us & Them
Keep Talking
One of These Days
Happiest Days/Another Brick II
Comfortably Numb

Run Like Hell


I also saw them for a 'best of' show in Liverpool , which consisted of :-

Shine On
Astronomy Domine
Learning to Fly
Time
Great Gig
Us & Them
Pigs

Echoes
High Hopes
Sheep
One of these Days
Happiest days/Another Brick II
Hey You
Comfortably Numb

Wish you were here
Run like Hell

If you get a chance, please go to see them. I could not fault the playing or the visuals. To call them a 'Tribute' band is a crime. visit thier website for sample mp3's, I'm sure there's a few youtube vids available as well.

By the way, I have no connection with the band (other than my love for Floyd)

One thing I will say, is these guys start on time, get there early to make sure you don't miss the start.
