Basically a copy & paste of a Sleekdeals post

which is a copy and paste of a deal from hotukdeals

Some great material in there. If you haven't watched a live Pink Floyd concert from end to end then you should.

The EDM guys have been hit particularly hard as most of their industry required everyone to get together in mass crowds. It's good for me however as it's all gone online.

The best way the unite series on youtube:

They kicked it off with some big names and now lots of lesser known people are doing their set. The best that I found was Phaxe. Highly recommended:

I have watched a few now and there are always three components to a Psytrance DJ set, the music, the visuals and the dude. Sometimes the dude twists knobs on the dj deck and sometimes they just dance. Without being able to see the human behind the music it would be far more boring. Spread the love, share the joy because I think this is what live performances are now.

Lots of fantastic acts out there but for me Pink Floyd is just that bit extra special.

I'm lucky enough to have seen them three times and ooh, I'll never forget the magnificent sight and sound of Rachel Fury doing The Great Gig In The Sky.
