Back on October 14th last year, we told you of a couple of live performances of Pink Floyd's 1973 classic, Dark Side Of The Moon, by popular progressive heavy rocker's Dream Theater.

The performances were at Amsterdam's Heineken Music Hall, on October 11th, and in London on October 25th, and were met with huge acclaim. The shows were part of the band's tradition of covering a classic album whenever they perform a two-night run in the same city.
