Re: The Wall Live. Wow

I saw both shows, the one in 87 and 94. I think the 2nd show was a lot better -- it had more of a Floyd feel to it. I've never gone to see a Roger Waters show. I like a few of his solo tracks (What god wants pt. II comes to mind), but on the whole, without the rest of the floyd to mellow

If you can find it, the Pink Floyd movie Echos/Live at Pompeii (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0069090/) shows some of their studio work. The guitar work, especially in the studio scenes when they were working on the Dark Side of the Moon album is very impressive. On Thu, Sep 16, 2010 at 2:06 PM, Me

Ya, Gilmour certainly knows how to work his guitar to get that "Floyd" sound. On Thu, Sep 16, 2010 at 1:28 PM, Sam wrote: > > On Thu, Sep 16, 2010 at 1:21 PM, Medic wrote: > > > > > > of Pros and Cons of Hitchhiking. > > That's the one I saw with Clapton. First half of the show was awful. > Se

Re: The Wall Live. Wow

they're two totally different pieces of the puzzle. Floyd wouldn't have been near as popular without the long sustain of Gilmours guitar solos. I definitely think Waters is a great talent and genius...but I also think he's an ass. On Sep 16, 2010, at 10:56 AM, G Money wrote: > > On Thu,

Well if it makes you feel better it's only Roger Waters, not "Floyd" per se, but if you're a Rog fan, it IS Floyd. If you're a Gilmour fan... well then... you're a retard. On Thu, Sep 16, 2010 at 11:40 AM, G Money wrote: > > Sprint Center...KCMO.the night before Halloween. > > *sigh* > > N

For Pink Floyd's Animals tour they gave a concert near Battersea England. The giant pink pig broke free (ironically enough) and floated out over th huge powerstation there. Apparently there were hundreds of UFO reports. Great concert though. On Thu, Sep 16, 2010 at 9:13 AM, Medic wrote: > > Nop

Saw it twice back in 1980 $110 a ticket for first show and free the next day. I also saw Water with Eric Clapton after that and Gilmour with the fake Pink Floyd band. Did they have the 40' balloons? On Thu, Sep 16, 2010 at 8:55 AM, Medic wrote: > > Saw Rogers Waters do The Wall last night. Un

The Wall Live. Wow

Saw Rogers Waters do The Wall last night. Un-be-lievable! Second time I've seen Rog and the first time I've seen The Wall. Too bad Gilmour wasn't there, but you can't have everything. The $267.50 for mid-range seats was a little much, but if you get the chance just pay it. It's worth it in the end
