A street musician plays Pink Floyd’s ‘Time’ outside the 1,900-year-old Pantheon in Rome

To commemorate Pink Floyd’s 50th anniversary The dark side of the moon we bring you this: a busker aptly playing “Time” in front of the nearly 2000 year old Pantheon in Rome. Whether the police are trying to break up the show doesn’t matter. The traveling musician continues and returns on other days to play “Shine on You Crazy Diamond” and “Comfortably Numb”. If you are a Pink Floyd fan, this scene may remind you Pink Floyd: Live in Pompeii, the 1972 concert documentary which featured the band performing eight songs amid the ruins of Pompeii. Rock among the rocks. You can explore this scene here.
