    Default Who Says You Can't Live In the Past?

    Like about half of the middle-aged LDs and laserists out there, I was inspired by concert footage like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yhk1lssnGRk

    I was lucky enough to see this tour in Tampa in 1994. Unfortunately, it was an open air stadium on a breezy day, so I missed much of the laser part of this epic show. (On the bright side, I avoided the second-hand smoke from whatever many of the attendees were doing that evening.)

    In an effort to recreate some of that magic, I've attempted to cover that song as accurately as I can in my limited environment and I thought I'd share my current attempt:



    Although, it looks simple compared to many of today's beam shows, I still find something elegant about the simplicity.

    Who says you can't live in the past?

    Next up: trying to fit into those old jeans with the 30" waist . . .

    Thanks, guys! This is not one that would be appreciated by "them yung-uns" listening to Scrillex, but a bit of Floyd always improves my day!

    and Marc - you are always welcome at Klub Kumpula!
