The main guitarist when Waters toured NZ for The Wall Live was Dave Kilminster. The funny thing is that a few musicians regularly appear in both Gilmour and Waters' touring bands (e.g., Jon Carin).
The light-show for Gilmour's "Live at Pompeii" is stunning.

Pink Floyd lightships are amazing. Jeff Lynne's ELO give them a run for their money though.
Yeah, Both PF and ELO have great lighting effects, really top bands.

Don't think I've ever heard them referred to as a Wellington band before. Gilpin was from Palmy North and had been a caberet singer touring pubs and clubs. The formation of what is known as Mi-sex was Gilpin plus members of other bands from Auckland, Hamilton and Welly, very much a hodgepodge of gigging musos. I'm fairly sure that they based themselves in Welly for a short while simply because they got a contract with EMI who had their recordings studios in Lower Hutt.
Just to show that you can never underestimate the taste of the public Computer Games was by far their biggest hit and most annoying song (followed closely on both fronts by People).
I saw them at their peak playing the Logan Concrete Centre and Steve Gilpin (RIP) was one hell of a showman. Brilliant throwing around the mic stand. Their lighting show for those days was very impressive as well.I'd say this is would be the song of theirs that has stood the test of time.

Blue Day is a terrific song.
Computer Games is dated and irritating.

Well, they played a lot in the Wgtn area... depends which one you like, prefer Computer Games over Blue Day.
Real tragedy that Gilpin was only in his early 40's when he died from injuries in a car accident. -

First time I saw the FotC was live in Masterton (Makora College fundraiser). I have never laughed so much in my life, it was totally out of the blue for me, free tickets so I went. This song was the best.

Met them once in London after show at Shepherd’s Bush. Brett was very likeable. Jerome less so.
Maybe because you called him Jerome.
