Just over a week to go before the band head over to South Africa for 14 shows. 18th Aug - 4th Sept....at the Joburg Theatre in Braamfontein. Prepare yourselves SA as this is the closest thing you will ever get to Pink Floyd in SA. 20 tonnes of state of the art sound & lighting equipment and a band passionate about performing Pink Floyd's music with energy and a meticulous attention to detail.
Its been 6 years since we last toured SA and this may be the last chance to see the Pink Floyd Experience for a number of years!
Dont miss this show!!!!

Many Thanks NZ
Hey on behalf of all the band and crew we just want to say a huge thank you to everyone who supported us on our recent Pulse 2011 New Zealand Tour!
We had an amazing tour with awesome feedback where ever we played. We had a standing ovation at every show, bar one, dunno what happened there? But yes the crowd response was fantastic everywhere and we were really humbled by it!
We really worked our arse's off to make this the best show we could and it really paid off. Once again thanks so much to everyone who attended the shows and especially those who came to more than one show. Met one guy who came to Napier, Palmy and Wellington...amazing support eh!
We also want to say a big thanks to our sponsors, Radio Hauraki, Music Plant, Woodstock, Stevens Ford and Yamaha Audio. You guys are awesome too!
Some great punter reviews here at... http://reviews.ticketmaster.co.nz/7171-en_nz/890996/the-pink-floyd-experience-reviews/reviews.htm
A few stories to tell, but we just have to get some paperwork out of the way and catch up on a bit of sleep!
keep safe, Nev :-)

Wow!!
The guys just did their 1st show of their NZ tour on Sat night in Invercargill and it was amazing!!
You have to come see this show.....its Floyd like you wouldnt believe.
The band have really stepped up to another level musically. With the addition of NZSO percussionist Jeremy Fitzsimons and Saxaphonist Roger Rangitaawa now playing rhythym guitar plus the most stunning sound system and a mind blowing light show, this is as good as it gets and as close as you'll get to Pink Floyd.
The sound is huge without being overbearing and the detail is incredible,every nuance audible and sitting perfectly in a 3 dimensional soundscape like you've never heard before. The best NZ production you will see this year!
Check out the photo from fridays rehearsal....more to come
Now for the bad news.
The band left me in Invercargill, they decided after 4 years they couldnt tame the beast in me, its genetic.....yes, so now I'll be looking after the blog from down here, the guys reckon they'll update me regularly....and dont forget if you own a cat and a garden gnome, please tell your cat 'we dont like being pissed on!
Good luck on th rest of the tour guys!

New Christchurch show
Due to the recent earthquake in Christchurch we have had to relocate our Christchurch show. Instead of the Town Hall we will now be performing at the Canterbury Arena.
Tickets are now on sale at www.ticketek.co.nz
Sales are going really well for the NZ tour and we anticipate a number of sold out shows!
We have been rehearsing flat out and also breaking in the new percussionist, plus putting huge demands on our Sax player, Roger, who's also going to be playing rhythym guitar. 2 bald guitar players, thats gonna be interesting....maybe we can bounce the lasers off their heads...instead of using mirrors. Its sounding huge!
Also working on all the production stuff, the new light shows going to be mind blowing as well as a new sound system...wicked! We are really excited about the new show and cant wait to get on the road!
See ya's soon

The Pink Floyd Experience want to wish everyone a Happy & Safe New Year!
2011's going to be a great year for us, and we hope its a great year for you all too!
Tickets to our 2011 Pulse Tour are selling really well and we really appreciate the great feedback we have been getting through our website.
We have some really great stuff in store for this tour, plus we are running various competitions leading up to the tour, one in particular is our Film Clip competition which will be announced in the coming weeks. Its a competition aimed at up and coming film makers giving them a chance to win cash prizes by submitting short clips to be used during the show, here in NZ and internationally.
If your interested just drop us a line and in the meantime we are just working out the finer details.
2011 is actually the year of the Gnome, so I'm off to celebrate with a couple of Gnomies and hopefully get lucky!!
All the best
