PINK FLOYD - A Finger On The P.U.L.S.E
One of the world's largest premier live Pink Floyd concert experiences - Beyond the Darkside (BTDS)- is touring Australia's five major cities in 2011, playing key select venues, many for one night only. This three-hour live spectacular both captures the essence and recreates all the excitement of Pink Floyd's Live 1996 PULSE concert - a concert that never actually came to this part of the world. This tour will be even more special as it is Beyond the Darkside's 20th anniversary of touring the Pink Floyd experience in 2011.
Beyond the Darkside's all-new "A Finger On The PULSE" tour features all the songs from the PULSE tour, along with other songs that were not included in either of the DVD or CD formats. This tour will be the biggest production the BTDS team has ever presented in their 20-year history touring the globe. "This will be the first time we'll have had a chance to present the show the way we really prefer to present it," says show producer & lead guitarist / singer Kevin Hunt. "We have carefully chosen the right venues, rearranged some areas of the seating as the stage area we required is larger than normal. This will limit the amount of seats available in some venues but all these rooms will have the openness to show how grand this production really is."
In typical Pink Floyd (& Beyond the Darkside) tradition the show will feature a 10-piece band accompanied by a massive production based on the 1996 PULSE look and design, consisting of a multi-arched trussing system covered by a massive digital light show, some new and powerful full colour laser systems, inflatable 20 foot pigs, projection, ‘Hey Teacher' lighting and other Pink Floyd props. The band's sound is presented in 80'000 watts of digital 5.1 surround sound.
Beyond the Dark Side recreates the psychedelic visual display and acoustic dimensions of an original Pink Floyd concert experience, capturing the imagination and artistry to which Pink Floyd fans have become accustomed. Their stage productions have grown to be some of the largest productions held in theatre & Entertainment Centres and have garnered rave reviews and accolades, building on a reputation for going far beyond the standards of any similar act with its authentic sound and near perfect rendering of the original spectacle. The Sydney Opera House Concert Hall production staged last year was labeled one of the most extravagant sound & lighting displays ever witnessed at the Sydney Opera House.
Named after legendary Georgia blues men Pink Anderson and Floyd Council, Pink Floyd were undoubtedly the greatest mainstream rock phenomenon in the world, with Dark Side of the Moon being a pivotal album in the history of music, selling a staggering 40 million copies world-wide - the third best selling album of all time. Even now, almost 40 years after this group of middle-class University students orchestrated the British psychedelic pop scene of the sixties; Pink Floyd continues to captivate its audience with its atmospheric, introspective anthems exploring the evocative and timeless themes of loneliness, alienation, madness and death. Sadly after the death of Keyboard player Richard Wright there will never be a chance to see the four great Pink Floyd
