Thought I replied to this - oh well...
Saw their bit on PBS, pretty good. Water's wedding or Gilmour's birthday?
Might think about seeing. This is a distant fourth between seeing the real band, Gilmour, or Waters but sheit, some Floyd is better than no Floyd, right?

Light show / stage is very reminiscent of DSOT/Pulse tours.
As for rights infringement I'm sure the original Floyd gets a cut of everything sold such as DVDs / CDs much as you would if you covered someone's tune and recorded it. As for a concert, that's open. Does Jimmy get a cut when someone plays Watchtower live? Nope. |

My Understanding is that the Tour Gear (i.e. Lights, Video Screen, Pig) actually is the gear that Pink Floyd used.....which is why they look, at least stage presence wise....like the real pink floyd.

Great Sound
But just not the same.
Saw, I seem to recall, Floyd twice at Foxborrow in late 80's.
First time the pig got stuck over the crowd, deflated, and hung down so low the crownd grabbed it and yanked it up and down. To get it back up the wire the rigging crew sent, I don't think I hallucinated it, a man down wire hand over hand to attach a cable that they then winched both pig and man back to safety.
I think.  |

I think you're right. Delicate Sound tour, was there but was across the field. I remember it looking like something funny going on with the Pig on the south side of the stadium |
