[ROCK] When Pink Floyd hit the stage in San Diego on their final tour in 1994, the Division Bell Tour, Tom Quinn devised the Pink Floyd Experience (PFX). The first Floyd tribute band on the West Coast, PFX won several San Diego Music Awards, before Annerin Productions approached them in 2003. Recognizing the musicality and passion of each PFX player, the Canadian-based producers supplied state-of-the-art special effects, aiming to drive PFX shows even closer to Floydian authenticity.

PFX takes the stage in the key of true progressive rock, paying little attention to the audience with the same alien seriousness (about their art) as Floyd. Lights shift overhead, bathing the band members in vibrant color, and fresh billows of smoke flood the stage. HD projections and scads of complex props (like the trademark flying pig) are underpinned by the intense quadrophonic sound (as first employed by Floyd). 

The entire performance has a theatrical vibe, with such dynamic sonic and visual elements that the performers themselves become secondary. On their current tour, the 4 Sides of Floyd Tour, the band plays four different sides off of four different Pink Floyd albums back-to-back – Animals, Dark Side Of The Moon, Wish You Were Here, and The Wall. 

The band comes to the Town Ballroom on Monday, February 16, presented by Funtime Presents.
