Shoot your own
“Every two years it’s a different show. No two shows have ever been the same, because no two albums are the same. With Floyd, you never stop learning,” he says.
“The music is pretty timeless, it’s not set around certain style. We noticed our audience was a lot younger on our last tour - families are turning up with eight or nine year old kids. Our audience is made up of 10-70 year olds,” says Ahearn.
The music and visuals are psychedelic, but the bands’ consumables aren’t – so a strong performance is guaranteed every time.
“Quite often we finish our set, have a beer backstage then head back to our accommodation for a cup of tea. You have to keep a straight head when you’re trying to cover one of the greatest bands of all time.”
This year, The Pink Floyd Experience will recreate Pink Floyd’s Pulse CD/DVD, taken from their 1995 Division Bell Tour. Fans have been offered the chance to get their own visuals up on the big screen, and to take home some prizes too. Entrants just need to head to the website, register for the song of their choice, and get shooting. There are no other limitations.
“The videos will be from people’s creative minds, that’s how Floyd’s stuff worked. It’s really about someone’s perception of what that song means to them when they listen to it.”
