For those of you who reside Stateside, the ultimate celebration of gluttony and sheer laziness is just a mere two days away. When you think of Thanksgiving, and if you're anything like me you have been all week, there are a certain number of traditional items and occurrences that come to mind almost immediately. There is the consumption of Turkey of course, and don't forget stuffing and cranberry sauce. And then there's always backyard football, watching the Detroit Lions get their asses handed to them, setting down to watch a British progressive rock band on TV and finally the inevitable nap.

What's that, Pink Floyd isn't normally apart of your Thanksgiving traditions? Well guess what my friends, that's about to change.

For those who are lucky enough to get the premium cable channel VH1 Classic, Thursday the 27th will be dubbed "A Very Pink Floyd Thanksgiving." The day will be set aside to show nothing but Pink Floyd material from music videos to live performances. That includes performances of the solo careers of former Floyd members, including Roger Waters and David Gilmour.

If you can't access VH1 Classic there is still hope of enjoying Pink Floyd on turkey day. If you head over to http://www.davidgilmour.com, the former vocalist is streaming songs from his critically acclaimed live DVD Live in Gdansk. He has promised to post songs on the site from today (November 25th) till next Tuesday (December 2nd). To check out our review of Gilmour's live effort click here, and in the meantime have a very Pink Floyd Thanksgiving!
