The Band Behind The Magic

A Super Jam Tradition

Five years ago members of The Werks, Papadosio, and Dopapod joined forces for a Pink Floyd Dark Side Of The Moon tribute set.

The three bands are joining forces once again for another special Pink Floyd tribute set. This time that will be paying homage to their album The Wall. This super jam is going to be a once in a life time experience.
