Here's what the Public have to say! 2009 Back Catalogue Tour

The show was awesome

Hi Guys, We saw your show in Wellington this weekend 23rd May the show was awesome. We look forward to your next one, this was our 3rd concert. Keep up the great work, we look forward the 4th one.

B&S Henderson

What can I say!

Last nights performance in Wellington was outstanding. To Steph, and the girls, you did Clare Tory proud last night. Your performance of Great Gig in the Sky was absolutely amazing! It has always been one of my favorite Floyd songs and I have always been very critical of that song as Clare’s vocals are amazing and yet she disappeared. I have only heard 3 versions that have blown me away, the 1st is the original 2nd was Katie Kisson at Roger Waters 2007 and last nights totally awesome job. The work from the whole band was fantastic and I can’t wait for the next lot of shows, Keep up the good work and long may it continue. Till next time God bless.

Band was awesome and vocalists Steph, Bella and Wini are incredible – Great Gig in the Sky absolutely blew me away!

Just wanted to thank you all, band, vocalists and crew, for the great show last night in Wellington! The early Floyd was great, plus favourites from Dark Side and The Wall, etc (the background animation and lighting for Brain Damage was especially appropriate!). Think the light show and the visuals are going from strength to strength – really good design and I liked the way the edges of the image were not obviously defined but simply blended in with the background – this worked really well in Money – just the greenback slowly rotating throughout the song! Band was awesome and vocalists Steph, Bella and Wini are incredible – Great Gig in the Sky absolutely blew me away! And the way you saved the special feature of the glitter ball on the back of the circular screen for the encore! Pure theatre and a real bonus for those that waited to the end (and called for more)! Big congrats to the band and the whole crew (yes, saw Nev looking after the Gnometronics display from the top of the amp) for a job well done!! Cheers, Mike

It is not just the great Floyd music, but the way you play it, the stage set up and clearly your passion for the music.

Hi, My wife and I came to see you show in Wellington last night. (I last saw you in Wanganui in about 1998.) Your show was brilliant. It is not just the great Floyd music, but the way you play it, the stage set up and clearly your passion for the music. Simply amazing! Thank you very very much !!!

FAR OUT GUYS!!!!

Talk about amazing, I was like many other Floyd fans off to the show, not really expecting to have my socks blown off. Awesome show! I have been bought up with Floyd as my childhood music, right from day dot. Having not being able to see the real David Gilmour troop now I feel I don’t need to. You guys filled the bill only thing was 3hrs plus just wasn’t long enough for all the greats. But big ups to the girls for Great Gig in the Sky, I always get goose bumps hearing the original and last night’s performance was mind blowing. See you when guys back in the bay next. Keep up the fantastic work.

Overwhelmed by the act it was almost as if the originals were there.​

Hi Carl Forster here, last night I went to the concert in Napier and was overwhelmed by the act it was almost as if the originals were there.

It was fantastic!

Hi. Just come from the Taupo concert and it was fantastic! Thanks for your time and effort to bring that ray of sunshine. Cheers, Bazza

What an absolutely awesome show, and getting better every time I see yous.

Hey guys, what an absolutely awesome show, and getting better every time I see yous. Everything was exactly spot on. Keep up the mind blowing performance and thanks again... Brett.

You have really pushed the envelope with the lights and special effects. It was truly amazing!!!!

What an awesome show in Tauranga last night. You have really pushed the envelope with the lights and special effects. It was truly amazing!!!! The set list was fantastic. Most, if not all, my favorite numbers... but I guess others think similar and that is why you played them. The band played tremendously, such energy!! And the backing vocal changes, Bella and Wini, were just great! Wini packs a huge vocal punch for her size. You guys really put on a great show. I saw you here in 2007, saw you last night and will continue to see you when next in the Bay of Plenty.

I’m a very very big fan of the Animals album and to hear Dogs and Sheep played live so well was the highlight for me.

Hi guys, I was at your Waitakere Concert on Saturday night, have not seen you before but had a fantastic time. I’m a very very big fan of the Animals album and to hear Dogs and Sheep played live so well was the highlight for me, I thought you guys were really tight and did a great job. I will make a point of coming to another show as soon as you’re back. Hopefully not too far away. Cheers for a great night! Ben

By the end of the show couldn't believe how fantastic the whole show was, the quality of the musicianship was amazing, both vocalists outstanding, even the backup singers were top notch!

Saw your show at Waitakere Stadium on Saturday night and was absolutely blown away by how good you guys were. I took my 26 year old son and we sat next to a guy (5 rows from the front!) who said he'd seen you 4 times before and Pink Floyd themselves at Western Springs and he gave you big ups so we were full of anticipation, but by the end of the show couldn't believe how fantastic the whole show was, the quality of the musicianship was amazing, both vocalists outstanding, even the backup singers were top notch! Bought both cds after the show, only wish you had a dvd! I own Pulse, In the Flesh, and Remember That Night on dvd, and to be honest, I wasn’t expecting much visually, but your light show and graphic displays were great! Best $75 I’ve ever spent, and when you’re back on your next tour, I'll be there again! Thanks a bunch for a fantastic night.

I think your rendition of Echoes and Great Gig in the Sky were more inspiring than those on DG’s live in Gdansk.

Hey team. Totally awesome performance on Friday night in Auckland. I was absolutely blown away. Brought my son (16) who is learning the guitar and has started with a few DG bits – Wish you were here, Comfortably numb, etc. He said it was “mean”. I think your rendition of Echoes and Great Gig in the Sky were more inspiring than those on DG’s live in Gdansk. Fantastic guys – thank you so much. Best concert I have been to in long time! Hope you get a buzz out of performing it - feels like you do on the audience side of the stage. Hey I meant to buy a poster of you chaps with the painted backs - I wanted to frame it and hang it below the framed PF Back Catalogue posted with the girls. I forgot to buy it. Can I buy one through you or somewhere? Please email me: Peter...

Thank you for one of the best concerts of my life on Friday night at the Bruce Mason Centre

Hi guys - Thank you for one of the best concerts of my life on Friday night at the Bruce Mason Centre. It wasn't very good, it was bloody awesome. My 2 sons and I were blown away by the nearly 3 hour show. Your version of Echoes was mesmerising and Comfortably Numb was stunning. In fact every song was great. You guys (and ladies) have a lot to be proud of. Thank you and I can't wait for the next tour. Regards Dean

Impressed at you guys rolling out Fearless

First things first; Well done for a top gig at the Bruce Mason Centre last night. Impressed at you guys rolling out Fearless- I seem to recall reading somewhere that Pink Floyd never played those filler tracks on Meddle live. Highlights were, Echoes and the old Barrett stuff.

It was a stunning show!

HIYA GUYS took my family along to watch the Pink Floyd Experience at the Bruce Mason Theatre last night. It was a stunning show! I saw you in Hamilton a couple years back when you did the WALL tour and was impressed then. However last night you surpassed yourselves. The lighting was a smaller version of a typical PF show but none the less, was technically brilliant. I joked to my son that all we needed to now make it perfect was a laser to fire out and lo and behold...

Last night’s show however was the perfect visual treat and full credit to the technical team.​

I went to see Roger Waters show in Albany and although the music was good the “effects” were very limited. We come to expect a visual treat anytime PF are on stage and I felt let down by Roger Waters. Last night’s show however was the perfect visual treat and full credit to the technical team.

It was good to hear both of the Sid Barret songs.

My two sons one of whom (Oliver the 12 year old) knows all the words to DSOM and this was his first rock concert. We was goggle eyed and singing along with his dad. He got particularly vocal during LEARNING TO FLY one of his favorites. As a drummer he is learning that one and actually practising as I type!

Speaking of DSOM. I was sure that a lot of the people who were there last night were there purely for a live rendition of DSOM?? Certainly the people around me! They were very inanimate during the first half of the show and whispered conversations of “which one is this?” were common. The lady in the row in front of me seemed to be having a good time though (SMILES) and was almost rocking her chair (the ones not bolted down GRIN) in time with mine... It was good to hear both of the Sid Barret songs. They were played with the often “manic” but gutsy guitar style we expected from SID and DAZ did an excellent job. For me however the highlight of the whole evening was ECHOES... played brilliantly well by the whole band. In the PINK FLOYD LIVE IN POMPEII DVD the band open with ECHOES and as the keyboard and guitar play that ethereal opening the camera moves behind all the tech gear and you get a glimpse of the band in between the packing cases and sound gear. Last night when Echoes was playing I closed my eyes and I could perfectly see that camera pan. I looked to my left and even my eldest son (Thomas 15) was singing the opening words “overhead the albatross hangs motionless upon the air...”

Full credit to the guys a Hauraki for supporting you. I listen to them every day and have even managed to win a couple of competitions as well. Enjoy the rest of the tour!

We took along some “first timers” and they were blown away

Hi Guys. Just wanted to drop you a line after attending the New Plymouth Show on Thursday night – another stand out performance – we have attended every show you have performed in New Plymouth and one in Wellington and it just keeps getting better and better. Once again we took along some “first timers” and they were blown away – we told them they would thank us big time for recommending they go! Loved "Arnold Layne" – brilliant.You did play one track in the first half which I don't think I have ever heard – had Rob on acoustic – can you tell me the track title/album it is from? I wasn’t able to get a programme on Thurs nite and have waded through my collection this morning but can’t find anything that rings a bell.

You all did an amazing job – loved your new vocalists.
Shine On You Crazy Diamonds!

hi there, i was lucky enough to be at the concert in chch last friday nite and was completely blown away. i cant speak highly enough, i will definitly go again if you come back. at the concert you had t-shirts etc for sale but silly me didnt have enough money with me. was wondering where i could get some, can’t find any on your website?? thanks so much again.

You are all a class act and we look forward to seeing you in Dunedin again!

Guys & Girls, My son and I thoroughly enjoyed the show you put on in Dunedin last night! You are all a class act and we look forward to seeing you in Dunedin again!Thanks for a great night!

We just wanted to say that last night's show in Invercargill (25/04/2009) was absolutely brilliant – right from the first note played.

Hi Guys/Gals, We just wanted to say that last night's show in Invercargill (25/04/2009) was absolutely brilliant – right from the first note played. That is, the music, lighting, stage show, the whole lot!! And that also includes the encore. The Pink Floyd Experience shows are ALWAYS fantastic but I think that this one proves that Pink Floyd themselves would really struggle to make a show as good as we experienced last night. We can’t wait for the next visit, it can’t come soon enough.

Thanks so much, Don and Brenda Hamilton.
