Roger Waters' prop disappears during Coachella performance
Former
Pink Floyd frontman
Roger Waters lost his inflatable pig during his performance at
Coachella on Sunday (April 27).
Organisers are offering a $10,000 reward and four festival tickets for life in exchange for
Waters' signature pig, which was seen floating away during his
'Dark Side Of The Moon' set at the three-day festival, reports
Reuters.
The giant flying pig, part of
Pink Floyd's stage show since their 1977 album
'Animals' featuring the song
'Pigs On The Wing', broke free from its tethers above the
Coachella crowd and drifted off.
Waters previously lost his flying pig in 1977, when it floated away on the second day of a photoshoot at the
Battersea Power Station in
London and was later recovered and used for an album cover.
Anyone with information on the lost pig should email
lostpig@coachella.com.
