[July 17th 2016] We came back and played a whole concert here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dqVApSMW2nM
This is our Pink Floyd cover band, "Pink Tones" playing our version of Atom Heart Mother absolutely live at the 2000 year old "Segobriga Roman Amphitheatre", one hour from Madrid (Spain).
We wanted to do something with the "live at Pompeii" feeling but also different. Something that goes further than the usual tribute band stuff and add something else.
With lots of respect to the originals, but also letting us go with ideas, and the will to do something different, this is our homage to a great song, a great band, and, because of the way the song perfectly fits that ancient, haunting place, a tribute to that lost civilization.
We played the song 4 times, around noon, and each time the cameras were set in different places, in order to have as many video positions as possible and at the same time, not to see the camera men in the final video. If you see small inconsistencies between image and audio it's because we used video from all takes, but the audio is exclusively the Take 3. We used absolutely no EQ nor compression or any treatment, it sounded that good as it was.
Before someone asks, the guitar has no mic in front of the WEM cabinet because it's recorded directly through an Axe-Fx unit.
Well, we hope you like this, it was a magical day, full of joy, illusion and hard work, and absolutely soaked in a "big family" vibe, with lots of friends that got involved purely for love to art, just the way we imagine these kind of things were done back in the 70s.
Here's a detailed story of the day:
