Pink Floyd Exhibition

[Funkydrummer]

At the V and A in London.

Anyone been or thinking of going ? Wondering if it's worth the trip.

[karatekid]

I would love to go. Why can't they have it up north later in the year? Cheap enough tickets but expensive day out when you travel to London from burnley.

Don't be tight,hand in pocket enjoy the day!

Do the Pink Floyd thing and buy some drugs with your money instead.

Have you named yourself after a Floyd track, I seem to recall a track called Cirrus Minor on one of the early albums, maybe Umaguma or Relics or Piper at the gates of Dawn - I can't recall without googling haha

how can a band have an exhibition in a museum ? surely it'd just be some old plectums and afghan coats.

And album cover art and ads to their early gigs - based on what I see on the V&A site.

And, I understand you get headphones and it plays their music as you walk through the exhibition.

Found a few items on YouTube. Here's a link to one of them.

Hello me,

I've just rediscovered this track, it's from the album 'More' and is a little bit trippy, do not listen if you don't want those flashbacks to start again.

We are going sometime in the autumn. Cheap accommodation currently difficult to access.

It's very Granchester Meadowsesque isn't it.

I went in May. It is really excellent taking you through the whole history and output of Pink Floyd in an audio visual exhibition. You wear your own headphones as you move through the exhibition. Don't go 'on spec', pre-book your tickets at the time you want.

Wrong museum. Aren't dinosaurs in the Natural History museum?!?

Indeed I did

A friend took his wife to see this last month. His review:
"It's truly superb. My only complaint is that we booked our slot for 3pm and the V&A closes at 5.30pm which left us having to rush through the last third. If you're going allow at least 3.5 hours. It's that good!"

Thanks for the info, those that have been. Sounds right up my street, so I will be
making plans for a trip soon.

[Funkydrummer]

Plans made, 12th/13th August, overnight stay plus exhibition.

Will report back if I remember.
