In the Flesh (Pink Floyd tour)

Pink Floyd's marketing strategy for the In the Flesh Tour was aggressive, filling pages of The New York Times and Billboard magazine.

To promote their four-night run at Madison Square Garden in New York City, there was a Pink Floyd parade on 6th Avenue featuring pigs and sheep.

[2] Although the Animals album had not been as commercially successful as the previous two, the band managed to sell out arenas and stadiums in America and Europe, setting scale and attendance records.

David Gilmour played bass on "Pigs On The Wing Part 2" during the second and final leg of the North American tour.

At some venues, paper sheep and pigs designed by Tim Hunkin were fired over the audience and parachuted back to earth.

During the tour, Waters began to exhibit increasingly aggressive behaviour, and would often scold disruptive audiences who lit off fireworks, and yelled and screamed during the quieter numbers.

They had several difficulties with the workers; for example, Waters once had to beckon one of the spotlights to move higher when it only illuminated his lower legs and feet while he was singing.
