It's the closest you'll ever get to seeing the classic Pink Floyd line-up live

Pink Floyd are due to release a new album this year, and there are rumours of a supporting tour too. But there is one key element missing: Roger Waters. Waters left the band in the mid-80s and has only performed a handful of charity dates with the band since.

The Australian Pink Floyd Show are generally considered to be the best Pink Floyd tribute act in the world, with hits spanning the band's entire history "" including songs from the Waters era. So, it's probably the closest you'll ever get to seeing the classic 70s Pink Floyd line-up.
