McClellan
has never seen or heard anything like this! The Machine, America’s
top Pink Floyd show, has forged a 20-year reputation of excellence, extending
the legacy of Pink Floyd, while creating a legacy all their own.
The New York based band focuses on making every show an authentic Floydian
experience for their fans. Known for performing a diverse mix of The Floyd’s
extensive 16-album repertoire (complete with faithful renditions of well
known hits as well as obscure gems), The Machine’s stellar musicianship,
dramatic lighting and video, and their passionate delivery sets them above
and beyond the rest.
In the classic tradition, The Machine explores collective improvisation
paralleling and even rivaling that of an early 1970’s Pink Floyd
mentality. Their use of expanded theatrical elements and elaborate stage
displays continues in the spirit of the later Floyd lineups of the1980’s.
The members of The Machine include founding members Todd Cohen (drums)
and Joe Pascarell (guitar, vocals), with long time stagemate Ryan Ball
(bass, vocals) and newcomer Scott Chasolen (keys, vocals).

A Music at McClellan tradition is a picnic in the park. Check out the

fixing your own, but still want dinner in the park? The 19th Hole at Cane
