Dude, a Pink Floyd-themed cruise on Carnival!

All we can say is if you don't eat your meat on this cruise, you can't have any pudding.

Sorry, couldn't resist.

Fans of Pink Floyd songs such as Another Brick in the Wall (Part 2) won't want to miss what's being billed as the first themed cruise devoted to the legendary English rock band.

Kiqstart Music, an entertainment company based in New York, and Think Floyd USA, touted as the number one touring production of Pink Floyd in the country (in other words, a cover band), are hosting the three-night voyage on the Carnival Imagination in May 2009.

Dubbed the "Great Gig in the Sea," the outing will include elaborate performances by the Pink Floyd lookalikes (who claim that they have received personal acclaim from Pink Floyd star David Gilmour himself) -- including the album Dark Side of the Moon performed in its entirety. Pink Floyd trivia contests, parties and games also are planned.

Cabins for the cruise, which leaves out of Miami on May 1, 2009 and includes a stop in Nassau in the Bahamas, start at $379 per person, based on double occupancy. Tickets are available at Greatgiginthesea.com.

Bummer, dude. We won't be able to attend. Sounds like it will be a high time for all
