@antipodean Next Monday in Auckland. I saw the Aussie tour t-shirts so I expect NZ will get one too. It will be good to hear so many SIT songs.

I'm off to see them tonight. Set list for each Australian concert so far has been the same:

What am I listening to right now? Reggae covers of Pink Floyd. And have been doing so for about an hour.
Not my choice... a very bizarre choice by a brewery taproom bar-staff, but it kinda works.
Only felt it was worth a mention, as I know how it would wind up "purist Pink Floyd fans".
Also, cue.. "Pink Floyd are overrated" vs aforementioned Purist Floyd's -

Mate went in Auckland. Said it was outstanding.
Having seen lots of recent Youtube footage it would appear they still have it and then some.

Yeah, it was good. With so many SIT songs it is the Adrian Smith show. I already knew what the setlist would be, but it was great to hear some classic songs live for the first time. Bruce still sounds really good for his age and after the cancer scare.

Loved it. The energy from guys at the wrong end of their 60s was immense.

I guess that this is supposed to be the new Oz rock band, but it's all been done so many times before. They're okay, and they've been around for a while, but I'll forget it immediately. Nothing new.
Underwhelming

@MiketheSnow that’s why Knofpler is one of the kings.
Never overplays.

It may sound completely contradictory but I love Knopflers playing despite being completely sick of Dire Straits if that makes sense.

Makes perfect sense to me. I'm at best a 2/10 Guitarist but I've learned enough to understand why people like Knopfler are universally lauded whilst other guitarists who would appear to be "better", are not.
The odd thing is that I'll never be able to play like Hammett, Van Halen, Wylde etc, yet I can cover a lot of Floyd / Knopfler songs but I still know that the latter are better musically.
2 posts in a row where I'm not really making sense. Might be time to hit the politics forum ...
