They are worth seeing but a bit expensive for a tribute band!!

They do have quite elaborate visuals for a tribute band that raises the cost of their ticket prices. They are very proficient instrumentally, but hate their vocals. There are worse ways to spend a night, for sure.

They invest heavily back into the show.
Although I went to see Brit Floyd which were the breakaway members from Aussie Floyd...and now they are better.
Both bands do have high ticket prices though.
Ola Bienkowska does the best Great Gig In The Sky by far - luckily she is in Brit Floyd.

Run Like Hell is about the only PF song that I think Gilmour has never been surpassed on. (and lol @ female backup singers on any song from the Wall!)

Looks like there were some personnel changes since I saw them  2 years ago or so...and not for the better.

Re: The Australian Pink Floyd Show 2013

As a massive Pink Floyd fan I've seen these guys many, many times over the years from smallish venues (the smallest hall at the Bournemouth International Centre) to the RAH, including a special multi band tribute night at Battersea Power Station where there were just four of us in the audience  sad

If you like your tribute bands to be note perfect then they're the band for you.  Part of me thinks in that case I'd rather listen to the real thing on CD but APF have worked hard for their craft and visually the show is stunning.  Vocally though they don't quite cut it for me and with rather silly ticket prices for a tribute band I dont think I'll be seeing them next year.
