P-Floyd, a Pink Floyd tribute band from Dalarna, Sweden, has won our 12th Annual Surrogate Bands Pink Floyd Cover Contest.
The group took the prize with its cover of “Pigs (Three Different Ones).”
Formed in 1993 by guitarist Jan Stumsner, the group has sold-out concert halls in Sweden and Scandinavia. Its 2016 shows at Dalhalla earned the band “Live Act of the Year” at the Dalecarlia Music Awards.
This past week, P-Floyd had its winning entry played on “Floydian Slip” episode #1473 — a special episode of our weekly Floyd radio show that was devoted entirely to other bands’ recordings of Floyd music.
The group also receives merchandise from the official webstore of Pink Floyd, shop.pinkfloyd.com.

Omega Auctions are selling today the purple and orange floorboards featured on the cover of Pink Floyd co-founder Syd Barrett‘s 1970 album The Madcap Laughs.
Estimated to go for £10,000 ($12,662), as of this writing the current bid is £5,000 ($6,331) with three bids registered.
Designer Storm Thorgerson of Hipgnosis and photographer Mick Rock shot Barrett crouched on the floor of his London flat for the cover of his The Madcap Laughs album. Prior to the shoot, Barrett painted the floorboards alternating colors of purple and orange.
Today’s seller purchased the flat and removed the boards during renovations. There are approximately 70 planks. Most are approximately 2.7 meters long — just less than 9 feet.
The auction’s webpage offers a number of photos of the flat.
Addendum: The auction ended today with a hammer price of £28,500 ($36,101).
