A live tribute to Pink Floyd from the Syd Barrett years to the Division Bell, WISH YOU WERE HERE combines Sight and Sound for the consummate Pink Floyd experience. WISH YOU WERE HERE performs the popular crowd favorites that all rock fans recognize, interspersed with the show-stoppers that appease even the most ardent Pink Floyd fanatics.
Based in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame city - Cleveland, Ohio -
WISH YOU WERE HERE regularly performs to sold-out and SRO crowds in their hometown and throughout OH, MI, PA, NY, and KY. In May of 2002, the band was chosen by Clear Chanel Entertainment to headline the FAKEFEST 2002 TOUR, which played to fans at outdoor ampitheatres in 6 major markets across the Midwest, including Kansas City, St. Louis, Indianapolis, and Pittsburgh. |

| Shows often include "entire album" performances, such as "Dark Side of the Moon", "Wish You Were Here", or "Animals", and the band has also done "unplugged" and "quadraphonic sound" shows. WISH YOU WERE HERE also performs the Floyd masterpiece "The Wall" occasionally, which includes the building (and tearing down) of a giant wall that spans the width of the stage, set pieces, and costumed characters. The Sight and Sound of Pink Floyd, indeed ! |

Many tribute bands come and go through our doors, but none have matched the success of WISH YOU WERE HERE. Musically, the band is right on the MONEY, and people RUN LIKE HELL to get a ticket to the show, because they consistently sell out our venue in advance. I've been lucky enough to work with them for over 8 years, and have HIGH HOPES for their continued success."
