Pink Floyd - The Dark Side Of The Moon (Live At The Ningaloo Eclipse) [Trailer]
Today, Pink Floyd has celebrated the 50th Anniversary of its iconic THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON album with a listening event timed to a rare total solar eclipse at the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Ningaloo Marine Park (Nyinggulu) in Exmouth, Western Australia.
The legendary group invited eight competition winning fans to a special secluded beach location in the region to hear THE DARK SIDE OF THE MOON in full – with Roger Waters iconic closing lines “But the sun is eclipsed by the moon…” from the album’s final song ‘Eclipse’ timed to align with the extraordinary moment of total eclipse at WST.
The eight fans – dubbed the ‘Astronome Domine 8’ – arrived on Mcleaods Beach this morning to witness a giant black pyramid framed by the horizon, constructed with creative oversight from the group’s long time Creative Consultant and Hipgnosis co-founder, Aubrey ‘Po’ Powell. Following a Welcome to Country by elder Hazel Walgar, the eight commenced the once in a lifetime listening experience as the shadow of the moon grazed the tip of Western Australia – the best land-based place in the world to view the eclipse.
The eight winners were brought together from all walks of life and represent multiple generations of Pink Floyd fans – a testament to the band’s cross-generational appeal. Several of the fans shed tears during today’s sensory experience, which was livestreamed across the world on Pink Floyd’s You Tube.
“This is something I’ll never forget” said 27 year old Nathan, who took the trip in tribute to his father – a Pink Floyd mega fan who passed away in 2021. “It was like Dad was there with me”.
“I’m speechless”, said Monya who made the journey with her husband Joseph after they were brought together by love of Pink Floyd. “I’ve listened to this album thousands of times – but never like this”.
50th anniversary of Pink Floyd’s ’The Dark Side of the Moon’ celebrated with new box set available March 24. Out now:
