There aren't many tribute acts who could sell their own range of T-shirts and charge fans almost £25 on the door.
But with a reformation of the classic line-up still unlikely in spite of Live 8's brief reunion, the only way fans can get their Floyd fix is through a tribute show, and the Australian version must be one of the best.
A spectacular laser light show and giant stage set was backed up with a ten-piece band to recreate some of the mostmemorable moments in the Floyd canon.
The expected songs were all played, with the droning chords of the Syd Barrett tribute Shine On You Crazy Diamond opening the show.
But there was also room for fan favourites in the two-and-a-half hour show, including The Gunner's Dream, Pigs (Three Different Ones) complete with a giant inflatable porker, and the brilliantly downbeat Nobody Home from The Wall album.
