Sadly I'm outnumbered - so far I'm the only person in the band that likes Pink Floyd. Even our mentor said something about having to be in a slightly altered state to listen to Floyd. I was like "well, David Gilmour is my guitar idol, so, you know, whatever..." :-). We made a joke out of it and everybody laughed.

I'm really glad you like my blues playing and you were quite keen to note the Gilmour influence. Maybe I'm wrong, but I think only other guitar players can really appreciate something like that. Perhaps I'll try it or something similar out at an open mic as a solo performer (with my backing track!) and see how it is received.
