Hey, haven't seen you guys since '07 Falls Rockin on the River... insane show... Any chance you guys could play Obscured By Clouds/When You're In on Apr 11th? One of my favorite Floyd songs/album and it never sounded so badass as when you guys opened the Blossum 06 show with that, unbelievable!

Hmmmm...it's funny you mentioned that 'cause Eroc and I were just talkin' not 2 days ago about how we needed to bring something back from this album soon. And, I thought that was a great opener, too, but, I think a lot of folks were scratchin' their heads wonderin' what the hell we were playing!
(side note: one of my fave Floyd boots is from May 5, 1973 'Supine In The Sunshine'...*GREAT* version of those two tunes to open that set!!! I've even got that one on my iPod ;D)
I'm gonna have to get that album out and crank it up today!
If anyone here was like me and just put off gettin' that record 'cause "It's a soundtrack" or whatever, *DON'T*...go get it! It's a great atmospheric piece w/ some rockin' Gilmour solos and vocals (I'd even venture to say that the Floyd didn't rock that hard again until Animals). For years, it was the only Floyd album I didn't own (my dumbass), until Eroc gave me a copy as a gift when I joined the band over 3 years ago...

I was all psyched thinking a I would do a small overnite trip to Cleveland for the show (in what would be Irv's final show with the label "college student") and then I looked at the calander: Easter weekend. Damn! Still trying to see if it could possibly work, but highly doubtful Possibly Columbus (also pretty grim as that will be a killer weekend school-wise). Eric

Yes, we have 2 very cool setlists planned for these 2 shows, after practicing last night at the Jager Room... some Obscured, DSOTM, and the return of Emily, to name just a few! PLPF - give yourself a holiday and come on out! E

What time is April 18 show?? Opener Doug Johns plays from 7:45-8:30pm, then WYWH hits the stage around 8:45 or so. E

Excellent! We are working on the logistics. Joe, if you're reading, then you know we might go, so you should too if you're able!!!

This is one of the band's better albums for sure. You guys should also consider doing some stuff off of Meddle or More. Or for that matter, Syd Barret's stuff seems rather underplayed now a days. Just something to think about.

We'll be playing 'Meddle' in its entirety at our next HOB show, November 7. Tickets are on sale now!

Just something to think about. We've always played at least one Syd tune at each show, often 2 and sometimes even 3 - not every PF Tribute does that (unbelievably!!)... As Jamie pointed out, we will be doing MEDDLE on November 7, and somebody else has already put in a special request for Astronomy at that show as well. I don't want to put myself out on a limb too far (oops, there I go again!), but you can probably bet that we'll be doing Obscured By Clouds in it's entirety at some point, probably the spring. There, I said it... I'll guess I'll have to 'make it so'! See ya at the shows! Eroc
