Contest: The Pink Floyd Experience comic

Posted September 27, 2010 by Floydian Slip

All five issues of the Rock ‘n Roll Comics series have been out of print for more than 15 years. The Floyd comics chronicle rock’s most enigmatic psychedelic warriors, from their early days with Syd Barrett, through their split and later regrouping.

With art by Marvel and DC star Ken Landgraf (Wolverine, Hawkman, Nightwing & Flamebird), the collection — now published as a 148-page book — also includes updated material that brings the saga up to 2010.

We have a few copies we’re giving away courtesy of Bluewater Productions. Deadline to register: 6 p.m. EDT Monday, Oct. 4.

Reunion date contest: The results

Posted September 15, 2010 by Floydian Slip

We asked you to take a guess as to the date David Gilmour would join Roger Waters on stage during Waters’ tour of “The Wall” that kicked off tonight in Toronto. We’ve been told it’s going to happen, but the date remains shrouded in secrecy.

The polls are closed, and we’ve crunched the numbers:

More than 80 people entered the contest, with guesses fairly evenly split between the North American leg of the tour (Sept. 15 through Dec. 21) and the European leg (March 21 through June 29). Though London’s series of five shows next May is clearly the voters’ favorite.

On the North American side, Waters’ Oct. 5 show at Madison Square Garden was the most popular, earning four votes. On the European side, guesses clustered around the London shows, with the May 11 show at The O2 coming out on top of all shows worldwide with eight votes.

“Floydian Slip” is going on the record by saying our guess is London’s May 17 date.

The person who guesses closest wins a copy of Water’s “The Wall Live in Berlin” on CD. If the winner guesses the exact date, we’ll add to the kitty a sealed copy of last November’s Classic Rock magazine with the 3D Floyd cover.

Now we play the waiting game …
