I am still trying to get into this album – just few weeks before I am entering the concert “Queen Extravaganza - Celebrating 50 years of Bohemian Rhapsody”, at Rockefeller in Oslo, Norway, 7th April 2025. What is the album really about?

Stepping into Parkteatret in Moss on Saturday, 22nd February 2025, felt like stepping into another dimension - full of thundering sounds and light effects. There was Pink Floyd’s legendary music reborn in all its glory. The Nordic Floyd Show, Norway’s renowned tribute band, once again proved why they have earned such high praise for their authentic and electrifying renditions of the classics.

Songs serve as powerful reminders of the ongoing fight against racism, xenophobia, and intolerance. Music has the power to ignite change, and artists have through history used their voices to challenge injustice, uplift communities, and promote values of respect, freedom, dignity, and love. 

Dusty Cowshit took the audience on a whirlwind ride across the vast prairies of the Moss region in Norway. This was fully set with their electrifying cowboy style in their show "Same Shit, New Wrapping". The band’s high-energy performance ignited the crowd at Ålen Bar on Friday 29th November 2024, delivered a night of unforgettable music and entertainment. 

There are some fantastic cover versions of popular rock, punk, and new wave songs that bring new energy or perspective to the originals. For example, immortal songs as Hotel California by the Eagles, Forget about me by Simple Minds, I`m gonna be (500 miles) by Proclaimers, and Brain Damage by Pink Floyd. Here are some standout covers of these songs and others. 

Today I had a conversation with ChatGTP about Pink Floyd. I needed some guidance to understand them better. My aim was to learn more about their lyrics from their latest albums. By using a crafting prompt based on the RTF-formula - Role, Task, and Format, I learned step by step. For each lesson I answered a quiz with five questions. 

Pink Floyd's music has been covered by many artists across various genres, resulting in some remarkable renditions. I stay true to the originals, but some innovative interpretations can be quite refreshing. I found several tributes that added a unique twist and at the same time maintained the spirit of the original songs.

Choosing the best cover of a Beatles song is highly subjective, but several covers have achieved significant acclaim over the years. In preparation for an upcoming concert by Det Betales, a Beatles tribute band from Norway, I have created a playlist of my favorite tribute songs.

The Østfold band Pulse of Floyd delivered Pink Floyd's music and expression with dignity and great perfectionism on Saturday 18th November at Verket Scene. The band celebrated the 50th anniversary of the album "Dark Side of The Moon" with performing songs from the album.

Local stars were shining at Verket Scene on Saturday 28th October 2023. Fantastic performances of songs from their favourite artists.

The English rock band Pink Floyd have something they want to sing about - a message to the world. Their albums The Dark Side of the Moon and The Wall stands for me like  “scientific” studies of human mind and behavior. 

The space age has inspired a number of musicians. The Norwegian solar physicist astrophysicist Paal Brekke's multimedia presentation 22nd August 2023 at Verket Scene, Moss in Norway, took us on a magical mystery tour far out in the space - supported by genuine rock'n roll. 

The Norwegian guitar heroes in the band Hiawata performed a concert on Saturday 9th September 2023 at the rockbar Last Train in Oslo, Norway. The members played for first time together since their concert in 2020. Finally they joined again. It was because they miss the songs and miss each other.
