High for the Holidays: DARK SIDE OF THE RAINBOW




Dorothy, Toto and Pink Floyd:
DARK SIDE OF THE RAINBOW
Scattered Shows Sunday 12/26 thru Friday 1/7, @Ritz

Advance tickets available here

We may never know if Pink Floyd had the foresight to record their greatest album with the notion that it was meant to sync almost perfectly to Victor Fleming’s, THE WIZARD OF OZ. Some say that this is just a happy coincidence, perpetuated by bong rips and the child-like naiveté of your average stoner. Even though the band has categorically denied that this was their intent, others swear that the list of coincidences is too great for even Jungian Psychologists to deny.

Whatever your stance, it’s hard not to get excited when the ‘cha-ching’ from Money coincides with the exact moment Dorothy steps out into technicolor munchkin land. Even if DARK SIDE OF THE RAINBOW was not a brilliantly hatched plan, more meaningful than a double rainbow (all the way!), the two go together better than Funyuns and Mountain Dew (warning: while DARK SIDE OF THE RAINBOW can be enjoyed in any state of mind, Funyuns and Mountain Dew are only safe to ingest if you are high out of your mind).
