Pink Floyd Full Concert - Venice Floating Barge Performance

Venue: Piazza San Marco Location: Venice, Veneto, Italy Date: July 15, 1989

On July 15, 1989, Pink Floyd performed a memorable concert on a floating barge in Venice, Italy, part of their "A Momentary Lapse of Reason" tour, supporting their album of the same name, which was released in 1987. This period marked a significant phase in the band's history, as it was their first major tour after the departure of founding member Roger Waters and the subsequent legal battles over the band's name. The Venice concert is particularly notable for its stunning visual effects and the iconic setting, showcasing the band's innovative stagecraft. It also highlighted their ability to connect with audiences despite the lineup changes. Furthermore, this performance was later featured in the "Delicate Sound of Thunder" live album and film, further cementing its place in the band's legacy. The combination of the picturesque backdrop and the band's powerful sound contributed to an unforgettable live experience.
