Can I just say how fortunate we are that both of the recent actors for Pike did smash-up jobs? I’m talking about Bruce Greenwood in the Kelvin films and of course Anson Mount in SNW. Each brought something different and was a stand out in their respective appearances.
I saw Brit Floyd live once - it’s a fantastic show that really gives it their all. Glad to hear whatever legalese was going on is settled.
Following successful negotiations Chas Cole (for CMP), the long time producer for Brit Floyd, and Damian Darlington, Brit Floyd's Musical director, confirm that they have come to an agreement with regard to the rights in the name Brit Floyd pursuant to a confidential settlement agreement. CMP and Damian Darlington have agreed a long term deal which means that Brit Floyd's current North American tour (and future Brit Floyd tours) will continue unaffected, fronted by Damian Darlington and represented by Palladium Entertainment. Chas Cole and CMP continue to create and produce high quality bespoke rock tribute shows and promote their original artist tours across UK, Europe and North America.

Wanted to get back into the DOS era of software and games (it’s what I grew up on.) I would have preferred something older, but I ended up with a Slot 1 Pentium III/500. Fortunately it has an ISA slot so all the truly DOS friendly sound cards.
