Pink Floyd Tribute Bands

Pink Floyd Tribute Band Concerts

With Pink Floyd very much finished as a live touring band, fans only have Pink Floyd tribute band concerts to seek out and experience. Some fans will have been born after the band had stopped touring so not seen them. Others may have seen Pink Floyd live and in the flesh. Lucky them. You blogger here has seen Roger Waters, Nick Mason and David Gilmour solo concerts many times, but never actually see Pink Floyd live. Who is the best tribute band for Pink Floyd? There are a lot of tribute bands to Pink Floyd all over the world. There should be at least one in every major city or region because everyone should watch! I have seen a few live over the years. They are a lot of fun. My favourite Pink Floyd tribute band has probably been the Australian Pink Floyd. I saw them last at Jodrell Bank...

Pink Floyd Sound System in 50 Year Anniversary Viewing

The Pink Floyd PA system, used on the 1973 tour of Dark Side of the Moon, is being recreated in 2023! CH Vintage Audio will display the equipment at 5 of the Australian Pink Floyd concerts in the UK. It will appear in the foyers at the concerts. Shows are on at Guildford, Birmingham, Brighton and Bournemouth. Sound systems that could fill a large hall, let along a stadium, were developed alongside Pink Floyd growing as a band. Acoustic amplification used to be the order of the day. Philharmonic halls and the likes would have an angled ceiling to broadcast the audio at the audience. Pink Floyd PA Book Chris Hewitt from Cheshire, England, has the UK’s largest collection of Vintage audio equipment has has been documenting his experience with the development of large rock sound systems over the past few years in a 3 volume set of books.

Australian Pink Floyd at Liverpool Echo March 2012

Australian Pink Floyd at Liverpool Echo March 2012

I had the pleasure of watching the Australian Pink Floyd at The Liverpool Echo Arena on 2nd March 2012. As cover bands go, you can’t really get much better than this. From a visual perspective, the show is impressive with them having a large circular screen like Pink Floyd use onto which there are various projections and videos. They also use lasers which are always fun and, on this particular tour, they are using lights along the front of the stage as Pink Floyd did on their Division Bell tour. Have a look at this live video of Australian Pink Floyd and see for yourself and see the photo gallery at the bottom of this page! Looking good. From a sound perspective, they still have it! I saw them perform at Manchester’s MEN Arena a few years ago and they sounded brilliant there. I have to say, with several key...

Australian Pink Floyd | Tour Dates | 2010 2011 | Tribute Band

The Australian Pink Floyd are probably the best Pink Floyd tribute or covers band out there.  They will be going on tour again in 2011 so, in addition to Roger Waters tour of The Wall in 2010 2011 something else to look forward to! The Australian Pink Floyd Tour 2011 will be announced either towards the end of this year 2010 or perhaps early on in 2011. I myself have seen them twice: once at the new Liverpool Echo arena during the Summer Pops festival of 2009 for which they are a regular performer and also in Manchester. The Aussie Floyd once played as a Pink Floyd Covers band at David Gilmour’s birthday party so, if he likes them, I imagine most fans will too! Stay tuned on Neptune Pink Floyd for when the tour is announced. It is well worth getting Austrlian Pink Floyd tickets even though they are...
