Evansville, IN – Without question, Pink Floyd remains one of the most influential rock bands of all time. Their record-breaking status is legendary. As the follow up to DARK SIDE OF THE MOON, WISH YOU WERE HERE explores the idea of absence, takes a cynical view of the music business and waxes poetically on the personal state of former band mate Syd Barrett. The album was produced by Alan Parsons and included musical guests Roy Harper and Stephane Grappelli. Richard Wright and David Gilmour have both stated that WISH YOU WERE HERE was their favorite Pink Floyd album. Now, get ready for THE PINK FLOYD EXPERIENCE as they present WISH YOU WERE HERE live in its entirety! With a spectacular light & video show, full quadraphonic sound and six outstanding musicians dedicated to bringing you the most authentic Floyd experience possible, it’s “a must-see for any Pink Floyd enthusiast!” (C-News, Northampton, MA)

Today, years since their last live performance, Pink Floyd’s appeal continues and spans the generations. Their shows were described as theatrical with mind-blowing lights and unsurpassed sound. The show is not only onstage…it engulfs the audience! In keeping with this tradition, THE PINK FLOYD EXPERIENCE is a full-on sensory assault – interpretive videos, plane crashes, flying pig, helicopter – it’s all there, LIVE! This is the show for the ultimate Floyd Fan, and it gets closer to the true Pink Floyd concert experience every year!
In addition to WISH YOU WERE HERE, all of Pink Floyd’s greatest hits are performed live including such favorites as “Pigs”, “Money,” “Time,” “Comfortably Numb,” “Run Like Hell” and many rarities not often heard live!
