This morning on Facebook One of my friends, share a video of nth FLOYD. And for the umpteenth time, I look, listen ... Great Gig in the Sky ... To me this song is the most beautiful FLOYD, even if all those are great FLOYD. I am a fan. Entire discography, including a few pirates, etc. ...
But what touched me the most is that this video, I knew ...
Et. Yes, 21 JUIN 1988, I was at the famous concert in VERSAILLES PINK FLOYD.
I bought the ticket, 8 or 9 months before the first day of sales, including a ticket The bus to go - back LIEGE / VERSAILLES / CORK and the famous pass to see my idols.
departure by bus to 12 pm Nearly TOUR KENNEDY LIEGE, a small bus with a 30aine room, nice ...
I think I was the youngest of all these fans, the average age is closer to 30 Years.
My Backpack snug with a pack of 6 beers and a small bottle of gin, cookies .. enough to keep the path .. A penalty
the bus started, the smoke makes began to move. I think the 4:30 trip, we had to be typed 6 firecrackers! Especially a lit of Mark, like post-Sixty eighter hair long, it seemed Rogers Waters.
One guy had brought a CD player and we spent 4 hours listening to the Floyd's history of being in the mood.
around 17:00 we arrive at Versailles. AND there! Grosse slap in the face. I never been to Versailles: the majesty of the place and before the court of the castle, this WHORE SCENE. Huge!! and this huge circular screen. WAOOOW
Already many people. of people have camped nearby.
There are a few hours before the concert. I go around the owner. At least try to see the castle from the outside. everything was marked, many security services ... but cool .. not aggressive cops.
Around 20 hours, I place myself, and being small, I manage to sneak .. and find myself at a safe distance to not miss.
22:00 concert.
Before the concert, laser show was planned and prepared by FLYOD.
This band sound (SOUNDSCAPE) was a true demonstration of the effects quadraphonic outdoors: varied sound effects (water, birds, storms, transition from plane ....) Put us in a crazy atmosphere .. with crackers and beer ... TRIP! for nearly half an hour ..
In the bonus DVD of PULSE, one can see a few minutes of this Soundscape! The concert begins
