Hi folks, Just wanted to say how much me and my pals enjoyed the Colchester gig the other night, FIRST CLASS! Congratulations to you all for playing so beautifully and for a unblemished performance. Stella: I love you! All the best, Regards. Rob Poole.


Saw you at Telford's Oakengates Theatre on the 6th and want to offer a sincere round of applause to the team for what was one of the most enjoyable nights of my life. As a lifelong fan of Pink Floyd it is such a bonus to be able to enjoy their music live. It was a joy to hear rarities such as Bike and Arnold Layne, plus also a rendition of The Gold It's In The... from Obscured By Clouds. Of particular note was the quality of the sound. I have never heard the bass sound so rich live ever in my life. Personal highlights were Run Like Hell, Any Colour You Like, Time, Astronomy Domine, Money & The Great Gig In The Sky. Looking forwards to seeing you again soon. For the next tour might I tentatively suggest.......something from Animals? All the best. Dominic


Hello, I'd like to receive the newsletter as I was blown away by this concert, I have just seen you at Colchester Charter Hall, Wow, what a performance, Fantastic, better then the real thing in my opinion. I am blown away by Fluff on the lead guitar, I loved his guitar playing he is fantastic, Gary Moore and other great guitarists have some competition with Fluff around, and the Saxophonist was great too, so enthusiastic and enjoying himself like all of the group did, and the lady in the group had a fantastic voice I had goose bumps. A thoroughly enjoyable show, please keep me up to date with your newsletter. Many Thanks. Pauline.


Hi. Being a huge Pink Floyd fan my parents in law bought me the tickets to see Off The Wall in Nottingham last night as a Christmas gift...one that they thought I would love. As I am a good daughter in law I excepted with great thanks, secretly thinking ..."My God I hate Tribute Bands" and a Pink Floyd one at that sacrilege! So off we went last night (it was also our wedding anniversary so was not feeling very happy about going to the gig). Wow is all I can say...I was completely knocked out by the whole evening...a fantastic gig...I've been to a lot of gigs over the last year but this has to be up with the best (not quite topping Rush but a very close second). It was so good I'm booking Derby and taking the kids (makes change there was no Effing and blinding). To completely top off a great night the last song 'Comfortably Numb' brought tears to my eyes...Thank you for a great night. See you in Derby. Jo


Took my nephew (12) to the Bolton show the other night. I had wondered when reading the other reviews and comments if you had been a bit 'selective' in your choice, now I know you haven't! We where totally blown away by the whole performance!!!! I realise now that there is VERY little likelihood of me ever seeing the 'original' lot perform but you know what, suddenly I'm not bothered any more, I am simply going to go and watch 'Off the Wall' again at St Helens next month! Many thanks for a GENUINELY memorable night! Ian


Great Band............fantastic show i'd recommend anyone to go n see a real pro band..all the musicians are excellent and togther re-create that classic Floyd sound....Dave Gilmour eat ya heart out! Vic from Southminster Essex.


Hi there, Just recently, saw your above gig, I brought also my boys, who've never seen a live gig before. And throughly enjoyed it, your interpretation or the "on the turning way" is better than the original and the introduction of the flute is inspired, it makes it more mellow, well done this is now regularly played on the CD system in doors and on the road. many thx. jah


Hi Off The Wall. Just got back from your Stockport gig (19.02.08) and WOW - you were AWESOME.  Each review I read prior to the show was true – you were absolutely fantastic to say the least. You really do capture the spirit of Pink Floyd and I will definitely catch up with again one day. Well done again and thanks for a great evening. Kind Regards, Steve.


I have just been to see your concert in Rhyl. What a fabulous show! Great Pink Floyd music. What great musicians. Not a dropped note in the three hours. Stella was outstanding. I will highly recommend your show to anyone and look forward to you paying a return visit to my area. Good luck with the rest of your tour. Neil.


Hi, saw the band at Grays and having been a Floyd fan for years I was blown away by your recreation of their music and light show! Keep on rocking!!! Hope to see you again soon.


I went to your concert in Kings Lynn, and boy was I blown away. What I saw and heard was nothing short of incredible.

I've seen a couple of Floyd tribute bands, but most of them make the mistake of trying to BE Pink Floyd, and usually end up failing miserably. With you guys, it's all about the music, and you have fun doing it. Your band is aptly subtitled "The Spirit Of Pink Floyd" because you've captured it beautifully. As soon as you started playing Shine On, the hairs stood up on the back of my neck, I had shivers down my spine, and tears streaming down my face, I was that moved. So much so that even thinking back now it has the same effect. You have an energy that projects from the stage, and it's infectious, but then I was in the second row lol. There were so many high points I don't know where to begin, but Stella singing Great Gig again had me reaching for the tissues, and what a talented woman she is, Ben's Sax playing was astounding, Fluff can strangle the life out of that Fender Strat and make it sing like an angel, Dave's drumming was very tight, Neil's Bass and Vocals were fantastic, especially Dogs Of War, and Kevin makes an excellent front man, whose musicianship and vocal talents never failed to be anything short of brilliant. It was also nice to see a lot of earlier stuff, such as Arnold Layne, Bike, and a brilliant rendition of Fearless. I could go on and on, but for me, this was the best gig I have been to since seeing the mighty Floyd at Earls Court, back in October 1994, and I've been to quite a few since. I think the only down side is that I'll have to wait till you guys come back to Kings Lynn so I can see you again. I would also like to say a big thanks to Kevin, Stella, Ben, Dave and Neil for signing my copy of the live DVD.

All in all it will remain to be one the most memorable nights of my life, so I would like to thank each and every one of you. A fitting tribute to one of the truly great bands of our time, and may The Spirit Of Pink Floyd live on for a long time to come, because you guys are absolutely awesome. I could tell that you guys had a ball, and I know I did too. I only hope I won't have to wait too long before you guys are back here again. Thanks again. Jon


Hi Guys. We (me and my missus) came to see you at Loughborough Town Hall, I just have to say you blew us away, What a fantastic gig, Thanks. Thanks for a great night, were seriously considering coming to Nottingham to see you again. Thanks again, see ya soon. Pete & Shaz


Hi Guys, I was the concert tonight and to say I was impressed is an understatement. I can only remember tribute bands as a kid going to the Butlins camp where the bands showed desire but lack of ability, but tonight I admired a band with ability in both technical competence and also a true nature to the songs themselves. What I cannot understand is why you had Ben Fogle playing saxophone, surely he should be in the jungle somewhere. All members played and sang with fantastic ability, although at the end covering Comfortably Numb wasn’t sinister enough. Your backing singer with the blond hair ‘Adele’ was a lovely voice and great ‘eye candy’ for us guys watching, she struck all my boxes! Anyway, keep it up, I will be paying to watch you again. Regards, Nigel.


"Hi OTW, just wanted to say how fantastic the gig was last night, I am a big floyd fan and never got to see them live but last night you all made my dream come true, you were all fantastic, YOU ROCKED".


We saw the show at Loughborough Town Hall last Sunday (17 Feb '08) . Having seen Australian Pink Floyd at Birmingham NIA last year and thought they were brilliant, we weren't sure what to expect from you, especially in view of the much smaller venue. However, we were not disappointed in any way. Your show was fantastic, and that base guitar and drum came thumping through so no one could fail to go with the beat. Everyone in the band plays their heart out and it is reflected in the quality of music and the atmosphere of the show. Going to see Aussie PF again this year (can't help it; we just love Pink Floyd's music) but we will definitely be looking out for you and will not miss a chance to see and hear you perform again. Best wishes for your continued success. Brian, Patricia and Graham


"An exquisite band purely dedicated to the music of Pink Floyd. I went to see them last night and was blown away. Truly the closest I may ever come to seeing Pink Floyd live and well worth the money. If anyone is thinking of going to see these highly talented and dedicated musicians I suggest u stop thinking and buy a ticket! I cannot fault this band: drums, guitars, bass, keyboard, vocals and even the lighting show was amazing and if you want to be blown away by vocals just sit back and let your jaw fall to the floor and your hair sand on end when Stella takes the spotlight for 'Great Gig In The Sky' and Kevin is the excellent ... nay the only choice for lead vocals".


"Hi all, I must thank you for a wonderful concert at Lisebergshallen, Gothenburg, Sweden on the 11th November 2005. The show was great and you are all very talented musicians".



"Just wanted to let you know that I was at the Middlesbrough concert on 18th November and I though you were brilliant! 'Echoes' could have have just carried on and on ... what a superb track. My favorite Floyd track and I've never seen them or anyone else play it live until now - you could have just carried on playing, it was mesmerizing".


"Having just seen the band last night at the Grand Opera House in York I am still speechless at the reproduction of sound, musically and vocally. What Off the Wall offered in visual entertainment was a blend of memorabilia and humorous innuendos. Long live the memory of the genius".


"Stunning Gig at the Piece Hall, Fluff in particular was awesome - could have been Dave Gilmour on stage. I've been to 5 of your concerts and will be returning for many more. Comment overheard at a post concert curry: 'Better than the original band'".


"What can I say guys, except wow! You guys rock! I don't think I've ever been to a gig where the band has brought the hairs on my back up or tears to my eyes. Fantastic! didn't want it to end. Even my missus said that if she saw the real pink floyd, they wouldn't be a patch on that performance".


"Hey guys. Saw you last night at Hull city hall and what can I say other than ... wow! You guys absolutely rock! I'm 17 years old and my dad got me into Pink Floyd about 2 years ago. Its his birthday on Tuesday so we came to see you last night as a prezzie to him. I totally loved the whole night! Everything was perfect especially your version of 'One Of These Days', 'Time', and 'Another Brick In The Wall'. 'Comfortably Numb' was also mind blowing! What an amazing night. I am fully aware that you are not trying to be the new Floyd, and I feel you added a personal touch and performed to perfection. Thank you for a wonderful night".


"Expecting rough Floyd, got PURE BRILLIANCE. Many thanks for you renditions of Floyd's Greatest songs on several occasions my hairs stood on end, transported back over 30 years in seconds by your truly beautiful act as so called take off artists, no your originality shone through and made a very memorable occasion for a couple out spoiling themselves. Lead vocals and keyboards an inspiration to any budding artist. Stella's vocals turned me into chicken skin - wow".


"I had no preconceptions of Off The Wall and was staggered by their musicianship, even the poor view of the stage I had couldn't detract from my enjoyment - especially of Great Gig, a flawless version".


"What can I say ... last Friday night ... It’s now Monday morning and I still haven’t come down! Having never seen or heard of you before and since seeing the real thing on the wall tour some time ago now, this was the first PF tribute band I have seen. Hoping you would be good as taking on Pink Floyd is no mean task, I now have no intention of wasting my money on any other PF tribute band as I simply feel you cannot be topped! Even by the original lot! Totally incredible. You have taken a project on and have blown it away with sheer talent".


Hello. I was astonished and very happy from the performance tonight in Umeå. This is as close as you come to the Floyd I think. You really made my night. I (23) felt kinda young in that crowd with an average by 40. I gotta blame my mother and father for not being born back in the days, but I think what you do is really really necessary - to get out that great Spirit out to young people today, surrounded by all that crappy music being produced. I guess you could explore the records by yourself, but I'm sure a lot of youngsters in this town discovered Pink Floyd this very weekend, because of your great and on-everyone's-lips-show. My friend (who didn't go tonight unfortunately) got hooked this week so that's fun for me too =)


I fell in love today during The Great Gig ... those incredible windpipes of that beautiful Stella! Shine on that female diamond. That was the biggest surprise tonight. Before when I went to the hall and thought about the eventual songs performed, I hoped to hear for that song, but thought you wouldn't do that song because of these close-to-impossible lyrics. It was both amazing and thrilling ... thrilling to see her hold those tones for soooo-ooh-oooh long ... and making it all the way. Thanks a lot for coming here and making my weekend! Hoped you like our little town and didn't freeze that much. Best of luck to all of you. Yngve, one happy Swede.


Hi. I just wanted to say that I thought that you were all fantastic. You were so close to the real thing it was amazing. If floyd were playing together today that is what they would sound like. I thoroughly enjoyed the whole show and can't wait to see you perform again. Em. x
 


Just to say that we came to your show in Scarborough two days ago (19th) and it was just fantastic. We will be coming to see you again and will be bringing friends with us the next time. Keith.
 


I spend a gorgeous evening last Wednesday when you performed in Paris! That was certainly time spend. Send my special greetings to Stella and Fluff - Breathtaking way of playing guitar! I look forward to see you again soon. (Maybe will grab one of the concerts in Portugal ;-). Certainly agree that Off The Wall is THE representative for the good old Pink Floyd spirit - You got me close to The Wall in Berlin!
 


Hey David and OTW-Members! Thank you for a great gig in Pratteln, Switzerland ! And thank you for the Drumsticks! Keep on rocking! Andy & Martina
 


Hi. Wow, I want to thank you for this absolutely fantastic concert at Z7 Pratteln (not Zurich... :-) )!!! I hope, you will come back to Switzerland for giving us once again such a beautiful night. All the best, Frank
 


What a brilliant concert tonight. That's the first time I've seen your band and I'm impressed. I've never seen any tracks from 'Wish You Were Here' live before just 'Dark Side Of The Moon'. The light show was very good, I enjoyed the Sheep track from 'Animals' dogs. Us And Them was also good so was Young Lust and Comfortably Numb. I hope to see you play again some time. I brought two cds at the show I'm looking forward to listening to them. The lady in the band has a good voice how brave to stand there in front of all us to sing live on stage, I get nervous just doing lectures to 30 people. Best wishes, Brian Woosnam.


Just a line to say that I saw the Fernham Hall gig on Friday and thought it was brilliant. All my favourite Floyd pieces beautifully played. Please give my regards and thanks to the band. I do hope you thought it was worthwhile and will come to Fareham again. Yours sincerely, Bob Hense


Hi OTW, just wanted to say how fantastic the gig was last night, I am a big floyd fan and never got to see them live but last night you all made my dream come true, you were all fantastic, YOU ROCKED. Regards, Guy.


Wow, thank you for an Absolutely fantastic night! I, like many others probably was absolutely amazed by the performance of you all, I am sure the memory will last for a very long time. I can not praise everyone up enough, fab. Also can you please thank Kevin for taking the time to mention Steve's birthday. We all had the best night. Have fun. Cerez (Sherry), Mike, Steve and Tilly xxx AMAZING!


My mate Kev saw you at King Georges Hall, Blackburn on the 15th and said you were even better than last year. I had to wait another week for Southport. But he was spot on, you were even better. A magic day, brilliant weather and a superb concert. Tell Kevin he is a real pro for the way he handled the "unusual" end of Time and seamlessly eased into the Breath reprise. That's why I love live music. And congratulations for doing Fearless. I have not heard that song for 25 years. I arrived home with a warm feeling (and a T-shirt)  Also we saw Paddy outside the Theatre and T in the town. Because of the Blog site I almost feel I know them. And just to finish, my wife used to hate The Great Gig In The Sky. If we played Dark Side or Echoes in the car, she used to skip that particular track. But since hearing Stella's wonderful version she now loves both the OTW and Floyd versions. Now that's impressive! I am eagerly awaiting the 2007 dates.


Hi Paul & gang, Excellent concert Fri. 22/9 at Tameside Theatre. Everyone on top form especially Stella - awesome! Thanks for a great evening. Kath Storey


Another great gig last night at Tameside Hippodrome. We were rocking, not just from the music though. Tameside is not famous for fixtures and this was evident in the fact that when a person moved in their seat, so did everyone else on the row. I've seen you peeps a few times now and you never let us down. Who would have thought that Ben Fogle was such an accomplished Saxophonist? I was particularly impressed with Dave's ... sorry ... Fluff's widdling on the intro to "Coming back to life" However, I think he was looking a bit tired last night so if you're thinking of resting him for a while, I would be more than happy to step in and carry the torch. Just let me know and I'll polish my aging Jackson and buy some new plecs. Joking apart, keep up the good work and all the best. Dave Dean.



Hi Paul, just a quick note to say how much my wife Angie, my daughter Lyndsay and I enjoyed the gig at York. We were sat in row 2 of stalls so had great view and were really impressed with the musicianship especially Stella ! Her Clare Torry bit was fantastic. We have seen the real Floyd and Think Floyd and thought you are definitely the best tribute band. All the best for rest of the tour!
Mark Burtonshaw


Having just seen the band last night at the Grand Opera House in York I am still speechless at the reproduction of sound, musically and vocally. What Off the Wall offered in visual entertainment was a blend of memorabilia and humorous innuendos. Long live the memory of the genius.


Just a huge thanks to all of you for what can only be described as a fantastic show. Definitely the best tribute band of Pink Floyd I have heard. You made both me and my friend - A 17yr old spinal injuries patient very happy. What a great night. We have now converted some of the spinal injuries unit to the group's sound. Thanks for taking the time to sign the DVD's - much appreciated. Can you please tell me when your DVD is released and how I can obtain one. The web site media does not do you the justice you deserve. Live you sound excellent. Keep up the good work and we look forward to seeing you in Southport again soon. Thanks again. Paul Jones (RGN).


Off The Wall and Their Fans. I am On The Warpath. Somebody at work has told me that some Objectionable Toady Weasel in the N.M.E. called Pink Floyd "dinosaurs" and said they should not have played at Live 8. Only The Weirdo's Of This World could ever hold that opinion. It is Obvious To We Floydies that such great music should never die, and great credit goes to Off The Wall for keeping it alive. At Live 8 the Old Time Weather beaten bands like Pink Floyd Or The Who stole the show and showed the Others The Way. It was out Of This World and much better then the Obnoxious Tripe We get of modern boy bands. If Floyd music is On The Wane or On The Way out why would so many of us loyal Off The Wall fans keep turning up at concerts, Oblivious To Weather, Observing The Wonderful lightshow, Ogling The Well made videos and shedding the Occasional Tear When Stella sings "The Great Gig". When your abroad and Over The Water we would still come if we could, for not Only The Weather but because we want you to Overtake That Well known Aussie band. The Aussies bigger than Off The Wall is Obviously The Worst case scenario. Any way, we are always glad when you are On The Way back to these shores. By Omitting The Weaker material and playing Only The Wonderful songs I think we will eclipse the Aussies, Only Time Will tell. I for one will keep coming to the concerts and wearing the Floyd t-shirts I feel Obliged To Wear. This joker journalist should read the comments On The Website and shut his gob. I am still dreaming Of The Wonderful day that you play the MEN Arena (I'm Only Thinking Wishfully) Bob Stokoe. (I feel much better now I've got that out Of The Way).


The stunning location ... warm still air complete with very 'Floydesque' setting sun was simply sublime. First time I had attended any sort of "tribute" event ... found the entire evening just superb ... sound and lighting excellent ... a faithful evocation of a sound which has touched so many people . . often movingly performed.....Great Gig was a particular example of this. Please get working on organizing another UK outdoor  venue for Summer 2007! Thank you.
D Spiers, North Yorkshire


Hi Paul. Thanks again for a wonderful concert at Ripley castle. This is the 4th time we've seen you in 2 years and you keep getting better!!! We brought my 23 year old son who is now a confirmed 'Floydy' and my daughter who is 18. Keep up the good work and we look forward to the concert in Blackburn in September - keep that bass line strong!!! Best wishes
John & Cathy Evans, Mellor Brook, Blackburn


Dear Off The Wall, this was the third time I had seen you perform Pink Floyd's music & this one was the best. Great venue, brilliant weather & just great music played by some super musicians. Very many thanks for a great evening & please come back to either Harrogate or Ripley. Kind regards, Matthew

P.S. We love you Stella! xxxxx


Hello Paul. First I want to congratulate OTW for achieving what I thought was impossible: you got my wife to sing along and say things like 'I like this song' - I've been trying for 20 years! Superb night, fantastic venue, perfect weather, and the music wasn't bad either. I look forward to seeing OTW at Middlesbrough in a few weeks time, thanks to all concerned. Regards, Bill Hardy


Stunning Gig at the Piece Hall, Fluff in particular was awesome - could have been Dave Gilmour on stage. I've been to 5 of your concerts and will be returning for many more. Comment overheard at a post concert curry: 'Better than the original band' - mmm there's one for debate. Ever thought of playing at a football stadium - I'm sure you'll get a significant crowd. Looking forward to the DVD and next gig in my area. Roy


Just a thank you for a great night at Ripley Castle. What a great venue, and a great night. By the way, there was a version of purple haze playing as background music with a superb base line before you started what is it called and who is it by? Hope all goes well in Portugal, look forward to seeing you again at a venue in the north.


Just to say well done on another amazing performance. We've come to many of your shows from 'The Black Horse, Skipton', to now, Ripley Castle and watched the band go from strength to strength. Last night was truly memorable and it must feel great to bring such pleasure to so many 'Floydies' as well as newcomers to the music of that great band. Wishing you continued success. Jo


Just about come down to earth after you superb show at the Piece Hall? and you go and do it again. Fabulous stage lighting and what a tremendous backdrop. I can't take much more of this! you are becoming a health hazard. Well done to all concerned and here's to a very bright future. Many thanks again and shine on. Gaz. P.S. See you again soon!


What can I say guys, except  wow! You guys rock! I don't think I've ever been to a gig where the band has brought the hairs on my back up or tears to my eyes. Fantastic! didn't want it to end. Even my missus said that if she saw the real pink floyd, they wouldn't be a patch on that performance. Thanks for an excellent evening and please visit us again soon. Gazza and Shelby.


Paul, The shine was taken of the Piece Hall gig to a certain extent by the weather. So we thought we would try again at Ripley Castle. Absolutely fantastic!  What a setting. Flexi-timed off work. Spent the afternoon in Harrogate, a pint in the Boars Head and then OTW under a clear blue sky. It does not get any better than that (well maybe the MEN, but we won't go into that one again). It's great to be amongst a bunch of like minded people. A really good day out and once again OTW come top of the value for money table. That's me now until Southport on September 23rd. Have you ever considered playing the Benicassim International Music Festival held every August in Spain - just a thought (I have a place nearby). It's like Spain's version of Glastonbury, but with better weather. Have a look at the 'Festival Internacional de Benicassim' website. What the band could not see at Ripley was behind you all. After dark a big, bright star hung directly over the stage. I wonder if it was Syd?


Hi All, Thanks once again for a fantastic show. The setting was superb and the weather was not bad either. I do hope that if you come back next year you play Ripley again. This time I might manage to get some photos as my batteries in my camera ran out lol! My son and his girlfriend came this year with us and were well impressed by the show. Once again a big hearty thanx. Btw, gr8 tribute to Syd. Malcolm


Hi, Just arrived back home after a memorable evening. What a fantastic performance, first time I have seen the group and it certainly wont be the last time. This was a birthday present from my wife who also had a superb time. Stella's vocals were absolutely incredible - goose bumps on goose bumps! Thank you ever so much - got some cracking photographs too  :-). Stephen Bowden JP RO


Hey there folks! Having seen Off The Wall once before in York, I couldn't pass up the chance to see you folks again ... So, it's a bit of a trek tonight but well worth it! I thought I'd log on briefly and take a look at your site - see what I was looking forward to this evening ... And I couldn't help but notice that your site doesn't quite match up to the undeniable quality of the band. I was wondering, in fact, if you might be interested in chatting about getting it revamped, and having something a little more becoming of folks of your stature? Anyway, thanks, and all the best either way. Can't wait for this evening! Jono


Hi Paul. Thank you -  thank you -  thank you for a fabulous night at the Piece Hall, as ever it was a mind blowing night, 'Crazy Diamond' covered me with goose bumps and I woke in the morning without a voice! I brought along both my sisters and their partners with me and since the gig - they have been out and bought Floyd CD's ... absolutely hooked! See you all next year? Please?! Rache


Hi, I thought the gig at city hall (Hull) was the best ever! I would love to come and see you again. I came with Dave’s brother Adrian and would love an autograph from the band. Thanks for the best night of my life. Love and best wishes in the future, Jes Cross


Hi to the band. My partner and I saw you at The City Hall, Newcastle on Friday 18th November and we were absolutely stunned by the show. You were perfectly suited to the venue which in my opinion is the best in Newcastle for sound quality and intimacy. Just four rows from the front and in an exact centre position, it was perfect for viewing every band member exuding talent of a very rare and satisfying type. I have seen a few tribute bands to the great Pink Floyd and you were certainly the best yet, topping in my opinion the well known Australian Pink Floyd. My partner and I agreed that Kevin's vocals were the best we'd heard and Stella's version of 'Great Gig in The Sky' is unbeatable I'm certain!! I can still feel the prickling goose bumps and I shed a few tears on the night. Stella you are absolutely amazing, what you've got is totally priceless and worth being proud beyond words about - what an incredible and special talent. To see the pleasure on your face as you were playing the slide guitar was super! Then onto Ben the Saxpert! it's hard work for me to find an expression because I was breathless. You're all wonderful, talented people and it was great to see the City Hall fill up for you. My Partner introduced me to Pink Floyd about four years ago and it's bands like yours that help me to live and enjoy what I have missed. You are doing a very important job for the fans and it's clear you enjoy it too. What a dream. If you have a mailing list I'd love to be added to it. Best wishes, take care and good luck with everything in the future. Suzanne and Tim


Hey guys. Saw you last night at Hull city hall and what can I say other than ... wow! You guys absolutely rock! I'm 17 years old and my dad got me into Pink Floyd about 2 years ago. Its his birthday on Tuesday so we came to see you last night as a prezzie to him. I totally loved the whole night! Everything was perfect especially your version of 'One Of These Days', 'Time', and 'Another Brick In The Wall'. 'Comfortably Numb' was also mind blowing! What an amazing night. I am fully aware that you are not trying to be the new Floyd, and I feel you added a personal touch and performed to perfection. Thank you for a wonderful night. Kate Sims xxx


Dear band members and crew, with tickets Bought by our children as anniversary presents, we enter Hull City Hall on Saturday 19th Nov 05. The best bought present in there twenty year buying spree, Expecting rough Floyd, got PURE BRILLIANCE. Many thanks for you renditions of Floyd's Greatest songs on several occasions my hairs stood on end, transported back over 30 years in seconds by your truly beautiful act as so called take off artists, no your originality shone through and made a very memorable occasion for a couple out spoiling themselves. Lead vocals and keyboards an inspiration to any budding artist. Stella's vocals turned me into chicken skin - wow. Lead guitar: sheer poetry on strings screamed ecstasy bass guitar totally held everything in place. A beat from the drummer ran the occasion and then all finally touched off with the raw power of the sax. Again, many thanks for all your efforts and that of crew and managers alike very, very professional team your sincerely a very happy and much inspire couple. Jo and John xx P.S. Looking forward to your next local gig as will be bring the family to swoon again. Thanks.


Just wanted to let you know that I was at the Middlesbrough concert on 18th November and I though you were brilliant! 'Echoes' could have have just carried on and on ... what a superb track. My favorite Floyd track and I've never seen them or anyone else play it live until now - you could have just carried on playing, it was mesmerizing. Look forward to seeing you next time you're up this way. Russ


Hi all, I went to the gig last night at hull city hall (19-Nov-05) with family and friends, all of which are Floyd nuts. We all came away delighted with the performance! All members played with passion and joy, something which often lacks with a lot of tribute acts. We all enjoyed Stella's fantastic vocal in 'Great Gig In The Sky', and the great sax work by Ben, and a mention to Paul for his tight bass work, and Dave for some heavy drumming, not forgetting Fluff for some magic on lead guitar and Kevin with his emotional keys and vocals! A big respect to the band and crew for "Off The Wall". LOVE THE DEEP PURPLE RIFF DURING MONEY (I think!) All the best.
Dan Park


Having been a Pink Floyd fan since I was a kid.  Now at the tender age of 42.  I saw you again last night at the City Hall in Hull. I can't fault you. I thought you were excellent. Keep up the good work and thanks for great night. Regards, Neil Bartlett


Thanks for the fantastic performance last night, a real treat and a trip down memory lane. Hope you've had a warm reception from the people of Hull and that you'll come and play for us again soon.


An exquisite band purely dedicated to the music of Pink Floyd. I went to see them last night and was blown away. Truly the closest I may ever come to seeing Pink Floyd live and well worth the money. If anyone is thinking of going to see these highly talented and dedicated musicians I suggest u stop thinking and buy a ticket! I cannot fault this band: drums, guitars, bass, keyboard, vocals and even the lighting show was amazing and if you want to be blown away by vocals just sit back and let your jaw fall to the floor and your hair sand on end when Stella takes the spotlight for 'Great Gig In The Sky' and Kevin is the excellent ... nay the only choice for lead vocals. To all the guys and girls in the band I thank you for this experience and would recommend a night spent with Off The Wall to anyone. THANK YOU, Nic


Wow that was awesome. I went home wanting more and thought If this band are that good, then just how good are the real Pink Floyd? Thanks to all the excellent musicians, sound and lighting crew, and the guys who move the equipment from one end of the country to the other.  A truly memorable experience, THANK YOU.


Hi Guys, I was at Middlesbrough Town Hall last night. Had a great time. Never really been a big Pink Floyd fan, just a casual listener, but last night was cracking. My mate is a fan and he was blown away. Stella was awesome, loads of people said her vocals were better than the original! Well done all. I will definitely look out for you again ... John (30) and (Stew 30+)


Thanks for a fantastic performance at Middlesbrough last night. Thoroughly enjoyable, with some outstanding musicianship. Highlights? Many of them, but 'Echoes', and Stella's vocals on 'The Great Gig' will long remain in the memories. Hope to see you back here soon. Bill & Claire


Thanks for a great evening in Malmö the 12th November 2005. In my opinion the best concert since the original was touring 12 or so years ago. I hope you will come back and do it again sometime. My only regrets is that I did not bring the wife and kids to learn what its all about. A shame that no media coverage was in any of the local papers, but I did see one review from Gothenburg and the concert the day before which was in line with my own opinion. 'The Great Gig In The Sky' with Stella was worth the ticket by itself, and in my opinion a scary 'sound alike' of Kevin (David G) just to mention 2 of the members. Looking forward to see you again, Ronny


A really fantastic evening which I and my son just loved. I'm still high three days later. The whole show was great and we want mooooooooore! So come back. When Floyd were here on the last tour guess who had to go England on the gig day. Your presence has been longed for. Thank you all so much. Dave


Hi and thanks for the high quality evening in Malmö Concert hall November 12. I really enjoyed the show. And one thing has to be rated above most of the other performances: The sax player was REALLY good, especially the fantastic ending of Comfortably Numb! You must give him credits for that! Benny


Hi guys! Thank you for a great show last night at Malmö Konserthus! You are really good musicians! Send an extra greeting to Stella and Ben, they sent shivers down my spine ... Hope I'll see you again! Nils


I saw your show in Malmö tonight and I just want to say thank you for a brilliant show. I have never seen the real 'Floyd' but you were the next best thing. At times during the show I kind of forgot that you weren't the real Pink Floyd. This was one of the best live performances I have ever seen and I have seen quite a few. Once again Thank You and I hope to see you again in Malmö. Rickard Gustafsson


Thank you for a great show in Gothenburg Nov.11th. Please come back as soon as possible. Kjell (53) a Pink Floyd fan.


Hi all, I must thank you for a wonderful concert at Lisebergshallen, Gothenburg, Sweden on the 11th November 2005. The show was great and you are all very talented musicians. I really hope you will come back to us next year. I would also like to thank the crew that handles the lighting and sound, first class. Thanks and good luck with the rest of the tour. Jan Pehrsson


Hi all, big thanks for the show last night at the Albert Hall ( 13th Oct ) in Bolton. The rendition of Echoes was totally mind blowing as was Stella's Great Gig In The Sky. We have been to quite a few of your shows and they just go from strength to strength. Keep up the good work and we will see you again soon. From Carl, Jimmy & Bob.


Hi, Thanks for a fantastic night at the Bolton Albert Halls - not even an over zealous traffic warden could spoil what was a wonderful night. I was awe struck at your presentation and was over the moon when you played. Highlight from the show was ... I have been sat here over 1 hour now trying to decide on one thing that stood above others and I cannot agree with myself, so without being boring and doing a channel 4 type Top Twenty Highlights in which they would all be joint top I think I will leave trying. I’m 49 and have followed Floyd since being a teenager. First time I saw them was early in 1973. I had queued all night with my mates on a freezing day in December to get tickets. I think the gig was in February, we all piled into the Free Trade Hall in Manchester. My hero’s all trooped out on stage and the atmosphere was truly electric, they struck up with Speak to Me and got as far as On The Run when the MC came out to interrupt the proceedings (this was in the time of the Heath government, miners strike, the 3 day week and of course POWER CUTS). He announced that NORWEB had informed them that the power was going to be cut and that we would have to leave immediately, and the gig would be rescheduled at a later date, to which Floyd carried on playing right up until the time the power was cut, then Dave & Roger (I think it was them as it was pitch dark) picked up acoustic guitars and played as we were all lead out with torches. We got to see them some 6 months later after Dark Side had been released. Thanks again, will come to see you again when you come back in the area. Best Regards, Peter Gladwell


Hi guys, just a quick thank you for an awe inspiring performance at the Albert Halls in Bolton last night. A fantastic gig – great sound and light – no criticisms whatsoever. Tribute Band? If it’s not too sacrilegious I’d say almost better than the real thing! Thanks again and good luck with the rest of the tour! All the best, Wavy & Stoned Bob!


Hi, there I felt I just had to tell you that prior to the Victoria Hall, Stoke-On-Trent gig, on the 29th September, I'd never actually heard of you! I went with an open mind and no idea whatsoever of what to expect. To say I was impressed would be a hopeless understatement - blown away would be nearer the truth! Not only by the performances of the band, but also the sheer quality of the stage show (lighting, video backdrops, everything...). Each member of the band did themselves proud, but I feel compelled to give especial praise to Ben and Stella. I found the saxophone instrumentals truly intoxicating, and as for Stella's vocals (in particular on Great Gig In The Sky) I could have closed my eyes and believed I was actually listening to the Floyd album (not for one second did I believe those vocals could be reproduced - and with such passion and precision - it was a very pleasant surprise)! Only disappointing thing about the night was the fact that the show had to end some time! In my twenties I was an avid fan of Marillion and saw them some 13 times. Now, at 42, I sense that I may have rekindled the musical fascination of my youth - with Marillion being replaced by Off The Wall. Roll on those next 12 gigs! Thanks for a terrific night. Kevin Catterall


Just seen you for the first time on Thursday in Stoke. Fantastic. I saw PF at Earls Court on the Pulse tour, and to be honest I enjoyed your show easily as much. Great light show and nice touches you have added to Floyds own material, improving and evolving it along it along the way. Will definitely look to seeing you guys again. Thanks, Jase


Hello to everyone. After attending your show at the Victoria Hall in Stoke on Trent on 29/09/05 I'm still mentally singing every tune from the show. We thoroughly enjoyed the show and would like to congratulate you on your extremely professional musical arrangement & thought provoking special effects. I find it extremely heart warming that my wife now requests Floyd tracks when were driving. Please come back soon. John & Sharron


Hi all. Congratulations on a brilliant show last night at the Viccy hall, absolutely chuffin' brilliant! That's it, just wanted to thank you all for a great night out. All the best, keep on doing it whilst it feels good! Yiddlei


I have been a fan of The Floyd since I was in the sixth form and believe me that’s a bloody long time ago - now 48 . But I never thought the day would come and I would say "that was the best concert I have been to". Well on the 14/10/2005 I went to the best concert I have ever been to. Off The Wall were just spellbindingly fantastic. The best music, sound quality and entertainment. All this from what they like to call themselves as a tribute band. Come back soon. Dave


Hello all. I went to your gig last night at the Huddersfield Town Hall. I enjoyed it, thank you. Please can you tell the lady who sang the solo that her voice sent shivers down my spine - great voice. Pat


Hey, I went to your Off The Wall tribute at Huddersfield last night and I thought it was amazing. I'm 17 and I had never been to a concert/gig before last night, but that was fantastic. I was one of the kids in front of the stage jumping up and down and punching the air and all that. It was great. I went with my dad, and thought that no one else I knew would be going to it but then I met a load of my mates there and that just made things better. I was surprised to see my mates from college there cos I thought I would be like the only one who liked Pink Floyd, but I was amazed to see quite a few younger people there, which just show how good you are and I think that you are all fantastic to be reaching out with this absolutely great music to the younger people. I got one of the t-shirts which, by the way, is fantastic value, thanks. So yeah, much thanks for the best night out ever and for making my first ever concert probably the best one! Eleanor Battye


Hi, On behalf of my family and I we would just like to thank you for a fabulous show last night! We have 2 kids 11 & 14 (nearly) and they where just blown away by the very first gig they have ever been to. All the group, the lighting and sound where faultless - being fans of Floyd for 25 years you made the music come alive for my husband and I who have never been able to afford to go to a big gig. We must also mention the huge talent of Ben Appleby who made the saxophone sexy! We took our son Daniel for his forthcoming birthday - he has been playing electric guitar for nearly a year now and can play perfectly the sound of complicated songs from Floyd, Hendrix and Chilli's alike. Your concert has only highlighted to him even more the passion he feels for the music. His birthday is on 31st October (Halloween) and it would really make his day if you could please send him a message of encouragement for the future - how can he show off his talent, could you recommend a way he might get started round here in Huddersfield? Thank you again for such a momentous evening. Louise Gathercole


Being a Huddersfield ex-pat I had to travel 180ish miles to come and see you last night at the town hall. It was worth the travelling. The only time the hairs on my neck sat down was the interval. You might not be trying to sound like the Floyd but you sounded just like the Floyd of the sixties. You as a band have a lot to be proud of and the next time your at the town hall I will be bringing my son with me (he's recently started getting into Floyd since watching Pulse on video). Attached are a few of the pics I got but being in the circle I was a bit far away. If you would like more let me know and I will send what I've got that aren't blurred due to the lighting. Thank you for a really enjoyable night.


Hi Off The Wall - Like everyone else I thought it was a fantastic show last night in Huddersfield. I have been a Floyd fan since the 70s, my daughter who came with me is also a fan despite being born two years after Dark Side came out. Everything was great - choice of songs, arrangements especially upbeat treatment of the early pieces that sound a bit light on disc, and the light show and videos. Thanks. We'll be coming to your next gig! David Whiting

ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT. 3 generations me, my dad, and my son, all totally carried away with the professionalism, and also down to earth humility and pure enjoyment of making music. No premadonnas here, talent in excess and a STUNNING night out, will see you again. Mark, Stan & Josh


Lifelong Floyd fan expecting last night to range from acceptable to downright murder. I was wrong! Thanks for a fantastic tribute to one of the best bands ever to grace a stage. You truly did them justice with every single number. The vocals for Great Gig in the Sky made the hair stand up on my neck. Beautifully and powerfully done. Thank you. Best £14 I’ve spent in a very long time! Stuart Nelson, Kendal.


Hi. Seen a few tribute bands over the years and all have been worth seeing more than once. I was so taken aback on Friday at Donny that I had little chance to take in the work each band member was individually contributing. That means that collectively you were delivering the sound of 'Floyd' which was the intention. I need another visit to see Fluff and each of you work the audience. As a guitarist myself I will learn a sax/guitar working a lead line together!!! Hopefully 'One of These Days' will feature at Harrogate, because that's where I'll be on Sat 15 Oct. I also hope the air guitarist is in evidence as he played a mean top register!!!! I need that particular score 'One of These Days' in order to rework it with perhaps a few Doris's here and there. Just one thing feeding back from Donny on Friday night----I felt the gap between the warm up and the performance was too long at 10 mins. Guitar tuning etc maybe should have taken place before the warm up.
Anyhow see you all at Harrogate on Saturday. Regards to all plus the crew. Brian Leary aka Triple A.


Took my son with me to see the band was out of this world. May not be Pink Floyd but after such a great night I can tell you that your the next best thing music was great the lighting was great and I got the CD and it was on my CD player in the car full blast all the way back to Mexborough. Thanks for a great great night. Bob Roberts and Andrew Roberts


Absolutely brilliant show please come back again. Jimi Kelly


Hi Guys. Went to Doncaster dome last night. 3 words - Awesome......simply awesome..........Thanks & best regards. Mike


Anyway Kevin, thanks for a great night the best £15 I have ever spent. The guy I went with said he's seen Pink Floyd about 5 or 6 times many years ago and his comments after the concert was "cock on". We though the gig was fantastic and so to finish please inform the rest of the band my friends last comment, which I think says it all: " if you put both bands together side by side it would be difficult to distinguish the real one". See ya Kevin mate and please, please come back to Doncaster soon. Clive Burtonhi


Guys I was at your gig last night at the Dome in Doncaster. First time I have seen you. It will not be the last, an absolutely fabulous night. Thanks a million. Honest Joe O'Neill Castleford. P. S: Stella you were amazing, still trying to catch me breath you all took me feet to cloud 9 you knocked me bed time sockies off. Don't leave it to long before you come again to Kent :)


Hi. My partner Sue and I are in our late fifties - we have both seen the Floyd in the sixties - I remained a fan she was never too keen so I had to semi drag her to the Doncaster Dome. She was blown away! What a fantastic band Off The Wall are!! - The reception from the live music stared Donny crowd was thunderous we would have stayed all night I'm sure and just watched a repeat performance - A night to go down in our mutual memory book - a happening - Keep up the good work you guys - you are fantastic interpreters of fantastic music. Fab! Mick and Sue


No other comment to make than superb!!! Saw you at the Civic some years ago. You've far outgrown that venue. Loved you all--Stella with her hat on. How much did you pay the guy in the front row doing the air guitar :))))) Keep going as long as you can guys. Love to all, Brian Leary


Dear Off The Wall. Thank you for an amazing concert at the NCLA last night. I'll be honest with you, I only knew you were playing in Newport because of the posters around town, and I had a look at your website and just had to come and see you, and I must admit you blew me away. I never stopped singing for 2 hours. Brilliant! The highlight for me was "Wish You Were Here" when you showed pictures of the Floyd from the beginning up to Live8. It brought a tear to this old mans eye (I' m 50). A couple of times I closed my eyes and imagined the Floyd on stage and your sound sounded just like them. Well done. Come back soon. Yours sincerely T. Dowd


Went to the gig last night 29th sep 05 in Hanley. What can I say except wow. I am not one for tribute bands but Off the Wall are a class above the rest. Stella was simply awesome, her vocals on the great gig in the sky was out of this world a brave girl to take it on and her musical talents are second to none. Ben's sax was astounding. The whole show was just perfect even my son enjoyed it which really did surprise me has he has grown up listening to Pink Floyd in the car and on the stereo and always complaining that I play nothing else. I only got into the Floyd after listening to Dark Side and didn't recognise the song they performed after Arnold Layne, can anyone help please. Can't wait till this band returns to the potteries and after last nights welcome I don't think it will be long. Dave


Thank-you, Thank-you, for a memorable night at the NCLA in Newport, South Wales, hope you enjoyed the concert as much as the audience. I closed my eyes and was taken back 30 years to Knebworth. Brilliant. Thanks again, Lorraine, David, Rachel and Terry.


Just returned from the NCLA gig, Newport. I was blown away. I never thought I would go to a 'tribute band' gig, but I was intrigued by the 'sound alike' promise, rather than 'look alike, pretend to be' which seems to typify most of this genre. The lightshow, the sound quality, the professionalism and talent of the musicians all contributed to a great night out. For someone who never got the opportunity (and no doubt never will) to see Pink Floyd, it was a real treat. Keep up the good work! John, Newport


Hi there, let me just start by saying that I am a great fan of Pink Floyd and my best memories of them was seeing them perform at Earls Court on there division bell tour. It was absolutely awesome. I recently got my flat mate Andy into them and it was him that suggested us going to see your group play at Road Menders. I will admit that I wasn't to keen on seeing a tribute band (no offence) but rather then listen to Andy whining like a little girl who wants a lollypop I decided to go. Where can I start? I thought you and your group were fantastic to say the least ... eye's closed it was like listening to the real thing ... YOU was fab! The way you played that saxophone and the way you danced with it was awesome. It's not that often when I'm speechless but I was. Thumbs up to you and the rest of the group you were all great. Thanks for a great night. Shelly


What can I say ... last Friday night ... It’s now Monday morning and I still haven’t come down! Having never seen or heard of you before and since seeing the real thing on the wall tour some time ago now, this was the first PF tribute band I have seen. Hoping you would be good as taking on Pink Floyd is no mean task, I now have no intention of wasting my money on any other PF tribute band as I simply feel you cannot be topped! Even by the original lot! Totally incredible. You have taken a project on and have blown it away with sheer talent…good luck to the entire band and all the crew, you are truly appreciated. The only disappointment is having looked at your forthcoming dates over the next few months, the south of England seems to be off the map! Please advise as to when / where you are back within 100 miles of Croydon ... I need another fix! I remain comfortably numb with the memory of Friday ... Best regards, Chris Keegan


Hi, Would like to say lots of good things about this band, but cannot beat what has already been said . They are very talented musicians who enjoy playing the music of one of the greatest bands the world will ever have the pleasure of listening to . I saw them at HALIFAX PIECE HALL this year on a brilliant summers evening and they were excellent , Also I would just like to say what a great support they had at Halifax , First on were 3 local guys from Bradford , then an excellent U2 tribute band called US 4 which had the crowd ready and waiting for OFF THE WALL, then -- you know the rest . Cheers guys see you next year.


Have just witnessed an amazing evening of dedicated musicians playing Pink Floyd. Have to congratulate you all on your professional stage show – sounds and lighting. Many thanks for a wonderful evening and look forward to seeing the band again. Graham M Woodcock


Off The Wall band were warmly received by the audience as they made a welcome return to the Grand Opera House, York on Sept 21st. Great performances as always from the band, with young newcomer Dave Cottrell doing a stalwart job on the drums. Kevin Fitzpatrick’s vocals just get better and better, from the haunting Shine On Crazy Diamonds to the dynamic Young Lust. Powerful bass playing from Paul Barker, along with stunning solos from Fluff on lead guitar, was enhanced by the visuals projected on the circular screen. Evocative singing from Stella Fairhead combined with amazing, ever changing lighting sent shivers down the spine. Just loved Ben Appleby’s Saxophone solos, and the clever use of cameras, allowing him to be superimposed in silhouette on the circular screen every so often. All the old favourites were played, such as Money, and Another Brick In The Wall, and were met with rapturous applause. When the band finished with Comfortably Numb, the crowd went wild, particularly when images were shown of members of Pink Floyd reunited at the G8 concert. From upbeat to reflective, this show had it all.


Saw the band for the second time at York on the 21st Sept, what a superb experience, even better than the first time, the show is not only a fitting tribute to Floyd but is a display of first class musicianship and vocal talents of a band in their own right. Without detracting in any way from the performance of the other band members it has to be said that Stella's performance had me spellbound.


Hi Off The Wall, what a brilliant night, fantastic. You have to be the best tribute band ever, I've been a 'Floyd' fan since they started, See Emily Play was released the year I left school! The whole evening was just superb, I particularly liked Echoes and Arnold Lane and Bike brought a big smile to my face. Hope you come back to Northampton soon. Keep on rockin'


Hi, Just want to say thank you for a fantastic night last night. First time I've had the opportunity to see your show and very impressed, I'll certainly be back again next time you're in York. Great selection of material, and you're in the girlfriends good books for playing "wish you were here", I'd have got no end of grief if you hadn't! Don't really like to single anyone out, but have to say that Stella's voice is amazing, "The Great Gig in the Sky" really came to life last night. Once again, many thanks for a great night, and hope to see you again in the not too distant future. Best wishes, Andy


I know everyone has already said it but this band is fantastic. Fluff and Stella stand out but everyone is fantastic. I've never been to see Pink Floyd in concert - I hate open air gigs, preferring smaller more intimate venues - so this was perfect for me - and in my home town too! I had no preconceptions of Off The Wall and was staggered by their musicianship, even the poor view of the stage I had couldn't detract from my enjoyment - especially of Great Gig, a flawless version. Only one query (not a complaint!): why nothing from Animals? Oh and a suggestion - have you ever considered playing a whole album from start to finish? What I hear of Dark Side last night made me wish to hear the whole thing all the way through ... ... ...


I just wanted to send a quick message to the band, to say how much I enjoyed the show on the 17th in Southport. This was the second time seeing 'Off the Wall', I loved the first time but wow what a show this was. The lighting and sound seemed so much better. Highlight for me was One of These Days, Money (how about a bass solo next time?) and of course Stella singing Great Gig in the Sky, not to take anything from the rest of the band, but WOW.


Holy Floyd, Batman!! I went to see you on Saturday 17 September 2005 at Southport (The gig was an anniversary present from my wife, who also came along). I have never written to the papers or a fan site before, but I HAD TO this time. I first saw Floyd at Maine Road in '88 & to be honest, I expected a pale shadow of the real thing. PLEASE FORGIVE ME!!!!! I have been to many many gigs, from Roy Harper to the Bay City Rollers (don't ask) passing UFO, Gary Glitter, Kiss and Syd knows how many others along the way. All had good points; many had high points (including the great PF themselves), but you were unbefirkinlievable!!!!! Kevin - nice links and a great performance & stage presence (by the way, I am one of the in-betweenies: neither very young nor nearly dead!) Your musicianship and obvious love for the music shone. Sorry to repeat what everyone else is saying but FOR GOD'S SAKE, KEEP "SLIGHTLY TALENTED" STELLA CHAINED TO THE MICROPHONE!! To sing one part of "Great Gig in the Sky" is a bit of a challenge (understatement of the century) - to sing them all is beyond belief. The hairs on my hairs were standing up :-O Someone has already proposed to her: if she accepts, I will settle for an affair with her voice!?!?
It's not so often you can listen to gig and say you remember the bass and drums in their own right, rather than just as 'the engine room'. The sax almost goes without saying; nevertheless, I was blown away! I am so glad you didn't try to go down the impersonation route - stick to putting your own stamp on the music - it works. Your version of Arnold Layne was (dare I say) easily better than the original. Learning to Fly - fantastic; Us and Them - amazing etc etc. And now I have just read that you played Echoes elsewhere - do it in Southport next time (SOON).
The stage set-up was fantastic and the backdrop graphics only served to gild the lily. Also thoroughly enjoyed shouting obscenities at Dubya and Princess Tony. You were ALL phenomenal. Just one last thing - please tell Fluff he can give DG a run for his money, so there's no need to be shy - he can come out from behind the curtain now!!!!! Shine On! J


Went to see you on Saturday in Southport - absolutely blown away - I could not believe how true to the original sound you all were - Stella's voice was spine chilling. Ben's sax brilliant. The rest of you superb - milk the audience more - have more of a conversation with us. See you at Blackpool in November. MILES


Dear OTW & all involved ... THANK U THANK U THANK U!!! For taking time to visit our humble little town. The spectacle of light & sound was something else! Only Floyd themselves at Earls Court had me so engulfed in the moment until last night. You truly are a band of great talent and a worthy tribute to PF. Keep it up & please put Bedford on the list for a future visit. Thanks again ... From Jay :o)


Thank-you for an excellent night by all of you. Unfair to pick out one member of the band because you were all excellent. Thank-you from David Williams (who sat on the front row and soaked it all in).


Hi! went to Llandudno our first Off The Wall experience - WOW! fantastic! totally blew us away, when are you coming back?! drove home in the car listening to your live CD! congratulations to the band for a fantastic performance. Can't wait to see you again! Kev & Trina
