[UPDATED] David Gilmour Busts Out Pink Floyd ‘Dark Side Of The Moon’ Classic In Pompeii

Pink Floyd guitarist David Gilmour returned to the site of one of his old band’s most famous concerts tonight as Gilmour brought his tour in support of Rattle That Lock to the ancient Anfiteatro Romano amphitheater in Pompeii. The big news from the show was his performance of “Great Gig In The Sky,” a Dark Side Of The Moon classic he last played in 2006 and has only performed a handful of times since Pink Floyd broke up.

Unlike Pink Floyd’s iconic 1971 performance in Pompeii that was documented for a famed 1972 concert film, this time around Gilmour is playing in front of an actual audience. David has mixed Pink Floyd and solo gems throughout Thursday night’s show, his first of two at the historic venue, including “Wish You Were Here,” “Money,” “Faces Of Stone” and “5 a.m.”

Watch the crazy scene as fans enter the ancient venue:
