Echoes - Barefoot To The Moon - An Acoustic Tribute To Pink Floyd
Oct 16 2015
•Music
Can you walk barefoot to the dark side of the moon? Echoes prove it with their acoustic show “Barefoot To The Moon”. The band, led by exceptional guitarist and singer Oliver Hartmann (Rock Meets Classic, Avantasia), is supported by a string quartet from the Bohemian Symphony Orchestra in Prague. The complex songs of the British rock giants are carefully stripped down and reduced to their essential structures with spartan, sometimes unusual instrumentation. The unique magic of this music is by no means lost, on the contrary. Familiar sounds change color and previously hidden nuances emerge. In its quasi “naked” state, a fascinating fragile beauty is revealed that has never been heard before. In short: Echoes expose the essence of Pink Floyd. Recorded at Stadttheater Aschaffenburg/Germany in December 2014

Dog Barbos and Unusual Cross
This is the very first silent slapstick comedy short about adventures of Worldly, Coward, and Fool. What's more fun: fishing with worms, or dynamite? Three friends decided to have a blast! Unfortunately their dog Barbos just loves playing fetch. And this time that stick was used for blast fishing. Barbos saw people throwing a smoking stick in a water, and fetched it right back to his owners. The "unusual cross" part begins when owners try to outrun the dog with dynamite.
