Saw the "Aussies" in a fairly small venue in C.T. I wasn't expecting much figured just another tribute band. Man was I surprised the light show , the female backup singers when they preformed The Great Gig In The Sky and the giant pink kangaroo. Its a show that should not be missed even by diehard Floyd fans

I've only seen the Aussies on TV but if WGBH is to believe (they always play Assuie Floyd in fundraisers) then many of the original roadies travel with the OZ and they have the stage and gear (lazers / props) from the Pulse tour...

DZ, who knew you were hip to "the greatest band ever!" To me only Jimi Hendrix Experience & Rush are even close! (I count 13 songs in your fishy poetic tribute btw)...

If only I knew!-- I would've brought my pre- Meddle live Bootleg tape, featuring 10+ minute versions of "Fat Old Sun" and "Careful with that Axe Eugene!" or my VHS tape of "Live at Pompeii" (same era) to the Porkchop last Nov. No better way to de- compress after night's surf sessions than PF music!

Though to me... "The Final Cut" was their last Album-- there is no PF without all 4 guys! (Sid B. was obviously expendable). "Learning to Fly" was such a bad song, the "new Floyd" lost me right there!...

For those looking to learn more... I rank their albums greatness- wise as follows: 1) Meddle 2) The Wall 3) Dark Side of the Moon 4) Wish You Were Here 5) Animals 6) Ummagumma (sp.?) 7) Atom Heart Mother 8) The Final Cut 9) Piper at the Gates of Dawn 10) Obscured by Clouds
