'They really are very, very good indeed' - DAVID GILMOUR

To celebrate the 30th Anniversary of the release of Pink Floyd's seminal 1979 classic rock opera THE WALL, the live phenomenon that is The Australian Pink Floyd Show will tour North American venues this fall with their jaw-dropping World Premiere of Pink Floyd's legendary rock opera The Wall. A brand new performance of the complete album in its majestic entirety. Every amazing musical piece note-for-note!

The work has not been performed live on this scale for over 25 years, not since Pink Floyd toured it themselves. But now it is back, in all its glory, performed by the band that the London Daily Mail say, 'do Floyd better than Floyd do themselves.'

Having already wowed audiences Stateside over the course of the last four years, this magnificent new USA and Candian tour will be even bigger, even better, and an even closer replica of the epic rock that was a live Pink Floyd show at its most flamboyant.

A brand new sound and light show will bring The Wall, arguably Floyd's greatest ever work, to life, with new animations, new lasers, new character inflatables, new stunning special effects but most importantly, the awesome soundscape that has blown the mind of millions of Pink Floyd fans across the world for the past 15 years.

The meticulous attention to detail of the musicianship - every facet of Floyd's 'The Wall' will be reproduced note for note, sound for sound by the fastidiously talented musicians - is what ultimately has kept the fans
coming back for more. And more. And more. They just can't believe their eyes and ears.

Floyd's frontman David Gilmour has given the show his own glowing endorsement and here's a unique chance to hear again the likes of 'Comfortably Numb', 'Hey You', 'Another Brick In The Wall', 'Run Like Hell' and every other track on the album performed within the stunning context of the work as a whole.

Every night the show will conclude with a special Pink Floyd 'Greatest Hits' encore.

Holy cow, are these guys still going? I think I saw them around 1990! They were pretty damn good then; if they've got the goods for a US tour, then yeah, definately check them out if you're a Floyd fan.

They've been based in the U.K. for a while now, and have been touring in North America pretty extensively for the last four years or so.

And, they definitely "have the goods."

For anyone who haven't seen them yet, here are a few samples:
