Fans tickled pink

Stokes Valley tribute band, The Pink Floyd Experience, whipped South African fans into a frenzy with their recent tour of the country. “This was no second-string cover band: it was obviously a highly competent outfit, whose members love Pink Floyd and have taken great care to handle the material with the respect it deserves,” said Tonight reviewer Willem Steenkamp. “They are guaranteed to satisfy old fans – and capture more than a few new ones.” From Stewart and Tricia Macpherson’s production company The Stetson Group, The Pink Floyd Experience comprises Rob Ju, Glen Ahearn, Stan Gratkowski, and Darren Whittaker.
