A Pink Floyd Tribute Band? I could think of easier groups to try to emulate.

Pink Floyd Tribute

Experienced singer, m id 40s looking for a talented group of musicians to do what is hardly ever done: Form a tribute band dedicated to the music of Pink Floyd. I don't just mean the 3 songs you hear every day on the radio, either. I want to perform everything from Arnold Layne to High Hopes.

Somewhere over the Rainbow is...awwww.

Rainbow - m4w

I know there is very little chance you will see this but you were in Rainbow in the 70's. Your initials were TJ. I just wanted to tell you that you were my first crush and I still think of you. I hope your life turned out wonderful-you deserve all the happiness you can get.

Props to this guy for giving the extra effort. Unless the woman hopped off the other side of the plane to avoid him.

We met at the LAX Airport.. - m4w  

We were both waiting for our red-eye flight to chicago last night (April 25). You were reading a book called "Blink". You were wearing a light colored dress. we started talking. You told me you were a nurse, in town for a conference on a shingles vaccine. I work in IT security and was also in town for business. You told me you had a chance to goto the beach during the day. I thought you were so pretty and you seem so nice. I was boarding group 1 and you were boarding group 2. I thought your ticket said seat 24. I was seat 13. You told me you lived in Cedar Rapids and I told you I lived in Charlotte, NC. After I boarded the plane, I waited for you to pass, but didn't see you. Thought I missed you go by. When we landed, I waited for every passenger to get off the plane. I still did not see you. Very confused. Maybe you were in a lower row than me? unbelievably, we never exchanged names. We were on AA flight 1062. Please email me.....I would love to chat :)
