I see The Aussies have released the UK dates for 2011. They are touring in March. Nicley slotted in before Britfloyd hit the UK. I notice they are using smaller venues though.

The tour is billed as the "Theatre Tour" and will see

I am quite disappointed as I have seen the Aussies for the past ten years or so and they have got better and better, however, the nearest venue to me is Southampton Guildhall, this, is possibly the worse venue for any rock concert in the country. Usually there is no seating other than the balcony which only holds about 50 people and the hall itself would only hold about 500 at the most. The stage is tiny. What are their promotors thinkg? Clearly the BritFloyd have the lead on them, they are booked to be at the BIC in May, a venue that holds over 3000. I think its a shame that there has been a split. Does anyone know why they split?

I don't know...but to be honest...as good as they are, cover bands don't have a right to have creative differences.  They are lucky they have been given Pink Floyd's blessing to do what they're doing for a living.  I'm not saying that in a mean way.  It's just that you shouldn't look a gift horse in the mouth if you know what I mean.

"Blessing" is a pretty strong word and "gift horse" is just over the top! This split has hardly been about creative differences, but I guess we'll wait for you to decide what they're allowed to have.  :

I wasn't trying to be mean...but these guys don't have to worry about writing their own material and basically just have to stick to the script.  Kind of similar to a Broadway play.
