If you live in St. Louis and you’re a fan of Pink Floyd you know about El Monstero.  I could talk about stage presence, theatrics, girls, guitars or the energy of the show.  There are so many things to know and love about El Monstero.  This year was the 18th year for El Monstero and Jerry and I have been to at least 10 of those shows.  Does it get old?  Never.  Going to one of the now seven annual (in St. Louis) shows is my favorite night of the year.  Each year the show is different, not drastically, but Mark Quinn and the boys change up the set list and stage show enough each year so that it stays fresh.  Some (most) years the post-Waters Pink Floyd is skipped altogether.  Some years they dig deep into pre-Gilmour era tunes.  Even if the set never changed I would go ever year.  The show is that good.  From year to year there is no drop in quality, if anything the show keeps getting better.  There may be Pink Floyd tribute shows that are more well-known and tour the world but you won’t find any better than El Monstero.  I can’t imagine anyone short of Pink Floyd themselves matching the energy that El Monstero brings.  In closing, if you haven’t seen El Monstero, do yourself a favor and get to a show.  Although, if your first time seeing them is at Riverport do yourself a favor and catch one of the shows at The Pageant; it’s hard to beat the energy they bring in that intimate venue.

    We Saw Them Live!

    We've been to concerts that we know every word to every song the band plays and others that we've never even heard a lyric sung by them. No one can deny the power of a live show.  Here are reviews of some we've seen.
