    Hey all,

    My lovely girlfriend just got me tickets to this show for Valentines day, which is great because I love Floyd but i've never heard of these guys.

    I just looked at the tickets and was shocked to see that they are in the O2 :eek: I assumed that a tribute band would play in the olympia or somewhere low key you know.

    Really looking forward to it and just wondering has anyone seen them before, and if so what are the reviews, or is anyone here going to the gig?

    You are in for a treat. Quality, amazing performance guaranteed. And I only caught a glimpse of them headlining a tent for a fair few thousand people 3 years ago. You won't be disappointed, theres a reason its the O2. Tickets always bit expensive for them, so doubt I'll make it myself.

    I see the start time is 18:30. In Belfast and most other gigs it is 20:00. Anyone know what the story is and what time does it really kick of at?

    Thanks

    That could be doors and a support band maybe? They normally always open doors at that time in that venue.

    Thanks Mushy, you're right. I checked with the O2 phone line and they reckon the band comes on at 8

    Awesome band, seen em twice and reckon they are easily the best cover band ever, without a doubt.
