yep, it is (or was ) in Kentucky at Lexington (U of K), nothing but Floyd played loudly for 2 straight 12 hour days ; last time I checked in the US CHess magazine I couldn't find it listed anymore

Lovely! That's my kind of Tourney.

my kinda tourny is "drinking allowed....trash talking allowed"

He-he, always room for improvement!

I could just imagine a Grateful Dead Open. Maybe some chess games would get played, but it really wouldn't matter much. 😵

woo hoo! Just found it!

I am really happy to see this tournament still going. I smiled at the entry fee category of "seniors" I guess some Pink Floyd fans are getting up there in age, eh? 🙂
