what he said..... it is unreal... I've seen Austrailian Pink Floyd, the only PF tribute band officially recognized by the real members and the St. Louis PF blow them away.... you'll be amazed. Should pick up Dark Side of the Moon album as they play the entire album during the first set before intermission. GO... you won't regret it. -Matt

Nothing says the holidays like gathering around the fire and singing such traditional songs of the season as "Dark Side of the Moon" and "Another Brick in the Wall." Although certainly not your typical holiday carols, those Pink Floyd songs have become a December tradition at the Pageant. For the eighth year in a row, El Monstero y Los Masked Avengers will be performing a Pink Floyd tribute show in St. Louis. And it's become so popular that the concert is booked for three consecutive nights next week. Tribute bands seem to be everywhere these days, so what makes this one so popular? For one thing, the performers go all out to re-create the Pink Floyd concert experience - complete with lasers, props (such as a wall) and video duplicating the footage Pink Floyd actually used in performance. But it all comes down to the music, and El Monstero (made up primarily of members of the local band Stir) does an excellent job on that front as well. The Dec. 23 show has been sold out for weeks.

El Monstero Y
Los Masked Avengers
The Pageant, December 27 and 28, 2002

by Michele Ulsohn

El Monstero, the Pink Floyd tribute act consisting of members from Stir along with various other local musicians, including John Pessoni, former Urge drummer, and a guest appearance by Michael Schaerer, played two near-capacity shows at the Pageant on the last weekend of the year. Performing songs mostly from The Wall and Dark Side of the Moon, the band accented their show with laser lights, identical video footage from Pink Floyd’s mid-’90s tour, three female backup vocalists, and a few authentic-looking props. During the show’s Wall segments, the extremely enigmatic Mark Quinn (from the Impala Deluxe band) used his acting skills to their fullest potential, creating a very realistic portrayal of the “Pink” character from the record’s movie. And Andy Schmidt’s fluid guitar solos are strong enough to impress even David Gilmour himself. Overall, the performance is a well-rehearsed and professional-quality production that could successfully be taken on a cross-country tour, but instead, the band has chosen to play exclusively in their hometown of St. Louis for what has now become a holiday tradition for the fifth year in a row.
