Thanks Bray! Notice all the shows are sold out. A stellar cast of musicians on the album. There is the Roxy Music connection with Phil Manzanera and Andy Newmark. Guy Pratt from the touring Floyd band and Ged Lynch from Robert Plant's band. Should be very interesting...

Aaaahhhh...it's a movie. That's why it's DTS.....
DESCRIPTION:
This film goes inside and behind WISH YOU WERE HERE, Pink Floyd's 1975 follow-up album to the monstrously successful DARK SIDE OF THE MOON, and shows the band's artistic progression after the sound and fury of sudden superstardom. The album--in particular the song "Shine On You Crazy Diamond"--was a tribute to their lost leader, Syd Barrett (who famously burnt out in an LSD-induced nervous breakdown). This release features footage of Pink Floyd on tour for the album, and also uses interviews and critical analysis to better understand this crucial moment in the band's history.

I missed that, might be pretty good, but I would much rather have a SACd or DVD-A version.

>>(who famously burnt out in an LSD-induced nervous breakdown)<<
That is a HIGHLY dabatable statement.
Not saying it is necessarily wrong, just in question.
If you go to any of the Pink Floyd forums you can read bigger pisssing matches over that subject than anything you could find on the AVS forums.
Link to a current Syd Barrett thread.

Maybe that's just the problem: someone pissed in his acid.
