In the Flesh? A Tribute to Pink Floyd

“In the Flesh?” A Tribute to Pink Floyd
“In the Flesh?” is a tribute to progressive rock pioneers, Pink Floyd. In early 2007 brothers Shannon and Justin Pittman decided to pursue their long-held ambition of reproducing the music of the legendary Pink Floyd in live performances, complete with elaborate sound, lighting and theatrics. Both Shannon and Justin are talented guitarists and singers. They share the vocals and guitar work in the band. Other players have been recruited over the years for duties on keyboards, bass and drums. Current band members include Dave Cornick on keyboards, Derrick Dunne on bass and Colin Perry on drums. Other musicians such as backup vocalists and a saxophone player are filled on a show by show basis by performers from the St. John’s music scene.
The band is probably best noted for its ambitious theatrical recreation of Pink Floyd’s album The Wall at Holy Heart in March of 2009. They performed at the East Meets West Expo in August 2008 and again in July 2009. They have headlined at various venues in the province including Junctions, the Rockhouse, the S.S, Meigle and Club One. They’ve also volunteered their time at a number of benefit concerts. The band strives to stay true to Pink Floyd’s theatrical values and endeavors to make each performance a truly spectacular experience for all.
