Absolutely 💯

Each one of these _AllStars_ teams is lead by a music director from one of the more than 250 locations, this one by my friend Andy Levenberg of the Chicago _School of Rock._ His goal was a combination of trying to produce an entertaining evening of music for an audience, and also to challenge these young musicians. Assigning such a long song was a bit of a risk, but as you can see it was totally worth it. After the song was over I had to go over and congratulate him, asking where the young lady on guitar come from. I hadn't been a really big _Pink Floyd_ fan, but her playing made me understand why David Gilmour is considered one of the greats.

I am and always have been a Floyd fan - I was 16 when Animals was released - and I am simply impressed by how this generation is embracing their music - without the psychotropic aids that my peers insisted on using to enhance their listening experience (of which I never partook).

This song came out when I was a pre-schooler, I got into it later and it's been my favourite pink floyd song since. I know it back to front and have tried covering it myself - I don't care that these guys didn't do it perfectly or made some oopsies, I loved that they got into it and I reckon they had a pretty good feel for the song, especially evidenced where they mix up the dynamics from piano to forte here and there. It's also really cool to see young peeps doing stuff that's not only a bit obscure but also older, and making it their own while keeping it recognisable. Awesome work!

What is really astonishing is that they get the set list from the team director three weeks before, learn the songs on their own from a playlist and notes from the director then get together for three days of rehearsal to gel as a band and practice, then go on the road. This complete show is available here on the channel, and you can get an idea of the breadth of what they covered. My favorite part is Ms. Spanos' guitar work, who gave me a deeper appreciation of Dave Gilmour's playing.

Wow that's amazing, thanks for the info. I was actually wondering how they came to be playing a song like dogs, that doesn't fit the standard sort of 3-minute pop/rock format

The director of this show is Andy Levenberg, the music director of the Chicago School of Rock which has been around for 11 years. He's a friend of mine, a great musician with a knowledge of music that is both deep and wide. He's been coming up with challenging programs for young musicians for years.
