AXS TV Worlds Greatest Tribute Bands - Pink Floyd - Which One's Pink











When I arrived at the show,  the parking structure had a familiar aroma to it.  There was a group in a car setting the mood for the Pink Floyd tribute show.  As I walked up to the Roxy, the line was longer than normal and you could hear the band running though their sound check from outside. You could tell this was going to be a good

When the doors opened at 7:00, the room filled up quickly. The guy next to me was already hammered and still sipping on a flask. The room soon had the same aroma as I smelled in the parking structure. This was truely a tribute to the 70's.

As the curtain rose for week 6 of AXS TV Worlds Greatest Tribute Bands we heard the ring of a cash register and the iconic bass riff from Which One's Pink. I was taken back to 70s when music was played from vinyl records. Paul Samarin sounded great. He had David Gilmour down to a tee.  Michael Forbes a guest saxophonist was spot on. And Scott Richards had the Roger Water bass down.

As the band continued it was clear that Which One's Pink have perfected the Pink Floyd sound.  Each song was played to the same level as the real band.  The singers have tuned their voices to sound as remarkably close to their counter parts.  The lighting and laser helped to set the stage for a great tribute to Pink Floyd.

As the band ended the first set and  Katie Daryl came on the stage before the commercial break, the crowd was so loud that I could not hear a word she was saying from less than 3 feet way.  It was evident by the crowds enthusiasm that Which One's Pink is the best Pink Floyd tribute band around.

The second set was short but just as good.  With these shows only being an hour long, they fly by. We got the very best of Pink Floyd by the very best Which One's Pink. I would highly recommend seeing these guys.  Check out their web page and see them the next chance you get.

The first set included Money, Happiest Days of Our Lives, Another Brick in the Wall, Part II, Breathe, Time, Hey You, Empty Spaces and Young Lust.

The second set comprised of Wish You Were Here, Comfortably Numb, Run Like Hell and Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun.
