Here's more info about the man behind the ballet company
that joined forces with the Floyds to produce this unusual
rock ballet performance:

Petit, Roland, 1924–, French dancer and choreographer,
b. Villemoble. Petit joined the Paris Opéra company at 15,
and in 1948 founded Les Ballets de Paris de Roland Petit.

His best-known work, Carmen (1949), set to music from
Georges Bizet's opera, was created for his company, with
Renée (Zizi) Jeanmaire, who later (1954) became his wife,
in the title role. Other well-known early works include Le
Jeune homme et la mort (1946) and Ballabile (1950). Petit
later turned to less classical forms, such as choreographing
films, e.g., Hans Christian Andersen (1952) and Daddy Long
Legs (1955), and music hall revues (1956–61). He returned
to ballet in the 1960s when commissioned to present the
Festivals populaires de ballet at the Chaillot theater in France.

In 1972 he founded the Ballet de Marseilles, which he directed
until 1997. Among his later dances are Symphonie Fantastique
(1975), The Blue Angel (1985), and Clavigo (1999). Petit's
chic and theatrical style have made him an extremely popular
figure in French dance.

Setlist is as follows:

1.) One of These Days
2.) Careful with that Axe, Eugene
3.) Obscured by Clouds
4.) When You're In
5.) Echoes
