American Floyd Rocks the House at APSU
January 24, 2011
Clarksville, TN – American Floyd put on a great show at Austin Peay State University’s Music/Mass Communications Building here in Clarksville on Friday and Saturday Night. I was able to attend the Friday evening show.
The concert opened with chopper sound effects and then led into Pink Floyds Brick in the Wall and the video playing behind the stage on a 40 foot screen that tied it all together. Along with great music, the light and laser show was awesome. At one point while the show was jamming inside the fire alarms were triggered outside the concert hall, as the mist from the fog machines spread through the building. Of course there was no danger to anyone inside the show.
