Aims Community College has assembled a multimedia event to recognize the 50th Anniversary of Pink Floyd’s “Dark Side of the Moon”. The group members are Brooke Elzey, Dr. Ivana Muncan, Patrick Wessel, Mariah Foster, Dr. Rick Busson, Darlene Mueller, Dusty Day-Griffith, Jeff Perry, Landon Peck and Dion Duran. Two band members not pictured: Patrick Hesse and Laura Ward.

Aims Professor of Music Rick Busson initiated the idea for the project. To make it a reality, he found support from Stephanie Newton, Chair of Visual & Performing Arts and Scott Reichel, the Dean of Arts and Sciences. Busson serves as the musical director for the performance and will play guitar at the concert. “Pink Floyd took the concept album to the next level by questioning the meaning of your life and what you would like to accomplish in your lifetime.” He has been inspired by the music and its cultural and social impact over the decades. “Some people are very familiar with it, and some people are not really sure what the big deal is. I'm just the right age for that. If you think about 50 years, I was in high school when that came out. It did touch a lot of my generation,” Busson said.

The music ensemble has been rehearsing for several months; it comprises Aims faculty, staff and students. The music from the album “Dark Side of the Moon” will be performed in its entirety on stage.
