Not Again Podcast Episode 200- Welcome To The Machine

Welcome To The Machine is a Pink Floyd tribute band from Singapore. With its members include: Lim Kiang as Bass, Noel Ong as Guitarist, Arinda as the front man, Laurence as the drummer, David as the Guitarist and Yuk Wong (not in around) as the keyboardist.

So I has asked the million dollar question: Why Pink Floyd? It spiraled into a rabbit hole of favourite Pink Floyd songs and the theater aspect of Pink Floyd. Stories shared on how Welcome To The Machine got started.

How the reception of Pink Floyd music in Singapore as compare to other countries such as Vietnam and India. Questions such as what they look out for during auditions and how the band stay together for close to a decade. The sacrifice and discipline that gels the band together.

Kiang is an old veteran when it comes to the local music scene, the song that pushed Beatles off the charts and the story that make his previous band the straydogs as the rebel band in the 1960s. Oh yeah We do think there are dated songs from Pink Floyd and Laurence loves Tool as well.
