Do you know what the cover is for Saturday's show? Also, what time do you take the stage?

More importantly, why haven't we heard from you on the 101 tragedy?!

Hey, get off my thread. We finally get Us & Them in Dallas and you're *****ing about a stupid radio station.

Yo TimAg:
Cover is $10 (I know I know but that's the only money we get, and there's a good opening band) The Doors band will play probably at about 9:00-9:15 til about 10:15 or so, then we'll start at ~10:30. We've got a good 2.5 hours at least of Floyd. We've got Fearless and Dogs in the second set, so you're in good shape! We're also doing all of Dark Side, some of The Wall, a couple of Division Bell tunes, and some songs off Wish You Were Here.

Hey Buck, yeah I have been too damned busy at work to weigh in on the KLOL/Clear Channel debacle. I freaking despise CC.

I want a refund, dammit! "Fearless" was dropped from the set. Truthfully, that was a killer show. You guys are incredible. I apologize for not coming up to talk to you (not really even sure which one was you), but I really felt like crap last night. I almost stayed home, but I knew I would be mad at myself if I missed your first Dallas show. I just sat off to the side and enjoyed some great music. And aside from the obvious omission, I thought that the set list was phenominal. Although I did catch a peek at part of the set list on stage and I was disappointed that "Coming Back To Life" got dropped, too. What happened that got the Doors band started so late? I was running late myself and thought I had missed them, but they hadn't even started yet. Anyway, the show was definitely worth $10. I highly recommend Us & Them to any Pink Floyd fans.

Hey TimAg:
Man, sorry about the Fearless bit. We were screwed again by ill-prepared club people and setup. First off, we drive up in a freaking monsoon, get there at 6:00 pm. No one from the club to be found. Can't get in. Finally get into club about 7:00 PM. Start setting up, no club personnel show up that know about the electricity setup show up until 8:00 PM. Find out there is 1, yes ONE, circuit for lights in the club. We trip the breaker like 4 times setting up. Sound guy shows up late, doesn't even have everything miced up until after 10:00 PM. Awful. Anyway, sorry because we really had to cut a lot of songs, and felt bad about it. Good news is that the club was happy about the show, and I have a good feeling we'll be back at Curtain Club early next year. I'll make sure and let you know. Thanks for the post, and thanks for coming out. I was the guitar player in the purple striped shirt in front of the keyboard player. Thanks again and make sure and grab me next time. We'll be better prepared next show!

That's cool, it was still a great show. I was shocked when I heard someone else calling for "Fearless" towards the end of the evening. By the way, killer solo on "Comfortably Numb". I was actually sitting right in front of you. I believe it was your girlfriend who was in charge of the video camera, right? I was sitting in the seat that she stood on to reach the camera to turn it on/off. By the way, I think you will be much happier at Curtain Club. I can't wait for that show.

Try and play at The Granada Theatre next time. The new owner Mike is very kind to this genre of music.

The Granada is too big (at least right now) and parking sucks down there.

Sorry man, been freaking buried at work lately. Coolness, well we talked to a booking guy about also the Firewater Bar & Grill again, and we of course will be working the Curtain Club angle as well. So you think the Granada is too big TimAg? Thanks for the insight you guys. Hopefully we'll be back up in Dallas probably February/March. I'll let you know!

That's cool. I just wanted to make sure you saw my post above about your show. The Granada is where I saw Velvet Revolver play. I think it holds around 1500. I've never been to Firewater (that's where Great White just played), but I think Curtain Club would be perfect.
