Has anyone ever tried this? It sounds kinda fun.


Pink Floyd Wizard of Oz" refers to the phenomenon known as Dark Side of the Rainbow, where playing Pink Floyd's 1973 album The Dark Side of the Moon simultaneously with the 1939 movie The Wizard of Oz creates moments of apparent synchronization, with the music and film sometimes appearing to align. Despite the perceived synchronicity, Pink Floyd members and the album's engineer Alan Parsons have repeatedly denied that the album was intentionally created to sync with the movie, attributing the phenomenon to coincidence and the human tendency to find patterns.

I somehow ended up with 2 copies of Dark side of the moon on vinyl, but alas no copies of Wizard of Aus.

We tried this is a sharehouse I was living in in the mid-90s.

It didn't really seem to work... though we might not have had enough substances first or early enough to appreciate the full effect?

Still love the album though.

It’s not a leap at all. His parents said he became more political and leaned left — and in today’s climate, that means adopting the left’s framing on gay and trans issues. The left has tied LGBTQ identity to their ideology, so an unstable guy absorbed that and saw Kirk, who opposed it, as the enemy. That’s not wishful thinking, it’s my logical take of the left politicising sexuality.

I bet when you played your junior footy, be it in the backs or forwards, you absolutely refused to play on the left

Yes. I remember giving it a go when I was a teenager. It does align fairly well.

You should try it to Knocking at your back door by Deep Purple whilst watching the classic - Remember the tight ones.

Did you press play on the cassette and VHS at the same time?

I sold all my vinyls three years ago. DSOTM was one of them. I preferred the cash option rather than having my sons consider them as frizbees.

Poor Jimmy Kimmel

The irony is delicious. The Left weaponised cancel culture, crushing anyone who dared step out of line, laughing while careers and lives were destroyed. But now, after a conservative is murdered, they suddenly clutch their pearls and howl for mercy. Cowards! They dished it out for years, but can’t stomach a taste of their own poison.

Speaking of Irony

Just keep tossing your money away Brittany.

Seeing the Higgins/Sharaz duo go down the gurglar is one i am going to enjoy.

The sheer arrogance, deceit & disgrace of all involved in the saga that cost the tax paying public was nothing short of pathetic.

They thought flying to France with there 2.4million lotto ticket from Albo into the Sunset was going to be forgiven by most of the Australian public.

Hell No
