I would have liked to have attended this crazy gig.
Pink Floyd on the stage with a body of water in front of them with a giant inflatable Octopus!

It's been a while since I read it, but I think Nick talks about this in his book.

Re: Pink Floyd Crystal Palace Garden Party
I shall take a look. I'm sure he will have had something witty to say about it.
It was an afternoon concert, and our light show was non-existent, but with the help of our art college chum Peter Dockley and friends, we submerged a huge inflatable octopus in the lake in front of the stage. As a climax to the show the octopus was inflated and came rearing out from the lake. The moment would have been improved if a number of over-enthusiastic and mind-altered fans had not stripped off and taken to the water; 1n scenes reminiscent of Twenty Thousand Leagues Under The Sea, these lunatics got tangled with the air Pipes and threatened to spoil the performance by thoughtlessly drowning.
