Hey there - It's called Synchronicity, a perceived interplay between the album and the film. Here's the wikipedia link which explains it all - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_Side_of_the_Rainbow. I watched it once, at one of the PF "laser spectacular" shows about 10 years ago or so, and I've seen parts of it since... Kinda cool the 1st time watching it, especially if you are 'under the influence', there are some trippy coincidental visuals... beyond that, it doesn't do much for me. I did write a short rant about it on the "Eroc's Agenda" page of our website (at www.floydtribute.com/agenda.htm, scroll down to the 2/7/03 entry, some of which is highlighted in yellow.) I was pontificating on it's use as a live gimmick by certain other Pink Floyd tributes out there... basically, my thought about that at the time was: ""DARK SIDE OF THE MOON" IS GREAT ENOUGH, performed live, all by itself - IT DOES NOT NEED "THE WIZARD OF OZ" to make it any better or cooler than it already is." That's just my personal take on it. Looking forward to the Mansfield show as well - it's gonna be a hell of a show! Thanks - Eroc |
