The Center for the Arts, University at Buffalo, will present The Pink Floyd Experience on Tuesday, Feb. 14, at 7:30 p.m. in the Mainstage Theatre, located at the Center for the Arts, North Campus.

Without question, Pink Floyd remains one of the most influential rock bands of all time. With a spectacular new light show, full quadraphonic sound and six brilliant musicians, The Pink Floyd Experience offers an authentic Floyd experience, and audiences have raved about the epic tribute concert.

Today, years since the band's last live performance, Pink Floyd's appeal continues to spread from generation to generation. The band has sold more than 200 million albums worldwide since 1967. "Dark Side of the Moon" shattered records when it stayed on the Billboard Top 200 album charts for 741 weeks, a streak that lasted from 1973 to 1988. In addition to four Grammy nominations in three different decades, the band was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1996. The Floyd catalogue continues to sell nearly 1,000,000 copies each year worldwide.

Pink Floyd shows were described as theatrical with mind-blowing lights and unsurpassed sound. In keeping with this tradition, The Pink Floyd Experience not only replicates Floyd's show onstage, but also engulfs the audience with a full-on sensory assault complete with interpretive videos, plane crashes, a flying pig, and even a helicopter. Join The Pink Floyd Experience as it presents "Wish You Were Here" live in its entirety, and other classic Floyd hits, such as "Money" and "Comfortably Numb," as well as seldom played rarities and more.

Tickets for The Pink Floyd Experience are $64.50, $44.50 and $34.50. Tickets are available at the Center Box Office and all Ticketmaster locations, including ticketmaster.com.
