Next week on Late Night With Jimmy Fallon, he will be paying tribute to the legendary rock band that is Pink Floyd. MGMT, Pearl Jam, Foo Fighters, and the Shins will all be musical guests, covering Pink Floyd songs. Nick Mason and Roger Waters will be sitting down with Fallon, and Waters will also perform with the Foo Fighters. This is extremely exciting, especially for a rock fan such as myself. Sounds to me like Jimmy Fallon (or his producers) has an amazing taste in music.
Monday, the Shins will be covering “Breathe,” from Dark Side Of The Moon. On Tuesday, the Foo Fighters will cover “The Wall” with Roger Waters himself. Wednesday, MGMT will cover “Lucifer Sam”, and on Friday, Pearl Jam will end off the week with a cover of The Wall‘s “Mother”.
Pink Floyd will be reissuing all of their albums on September 27th, 2011.
