One of the world's premier live
concert experiences Beyond the Darkside returns to Sydney and Melbourne for three
special performances at the Sydney Opera House on Friday, May 8 and Palms at Crown,
Melbourne on Friday May 22 and Saturday May 23, staging a three-hour live spectacle
that recreates all the excitement and captures the essence that is Pink Floyd.
Performing the hits of the early years culminating all the songs from
'Dark Side Of The Moon' album, the 9 piece band is the largest of it's kind and
has garnered rave reviews and accolades the world over, 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. Named after legendary
Georgia blues men Pink Anderson and Floyd Council, Pink Floyd were undoubtedly
the greatest mainstream rock phenomenon in the world, Dark Side of the Moon being
a pivotal album in the history of music, selling a staggering 40 million copies
world-wide making it the third best selling album of all time worldwide.
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.
Beyond The Dark Side recreates the psychedelic visual display and acoustic
dimensions of an original Pink Floyd concert experience, capturing the imagination
and artistry that Pink Floyd fans have become accustomed.
This is the
largest production of any Pink Floyd show in the world, and the largest show ever
to be seen here in Australia since the real thing, according to its UK creator,
musician (lead and acoustic guitars and lead vocals) Kevin Hunt.
