[pigonthewing82]

I want the Live at the Wall DVD.

Is it any good?

You mean Live in Berlin? Its ok, I mean its a post Gimour preformance. I would recommend the Wall live cd Is There Anybody Out There more.

[Kingofdudes]

I saw Is There Anybody Out There the other day for 20$, so I might get it. Anyone heard it?
I have. It is very good. It is on my to-buy list.

I want the Live at the Wall DVD.

I didnt know they have a live performance of the wall

Well the mainstream one is Roger after Pink Floyd broke up, but a bootleg of it surfaces once in a while in rare cd stores and ebay.

/me begins a hunt

[pigonthewing82]

You know I was listening to The Nile Song, and well if Korn felt a huge need to cover a Floyd song I think they might have been able to do a good cover of it, but only if they had to, none would be better.

[pigonthewing82]

I bought Live at Pompeii. It was awesome. You enjoy more Floyd when you know where all the strange sounds are comming from (ie Careful With That Axe Eugene).

I'm pumped. Need more Floyd.

You know just one more thing on that I was just listening to it (yea I found a bootleg cd of it at a used cd store) and I never realized before but Nick Mason owns on Saucerful of Secrets, more then usual, I think thats his best work.

I was noticing that earlier today as well.

[pigonthewing82]

I was noticing that earlier today as well.

Yea I'm used to the drumming pace he used during Ummagumma, so this was really impressive for me. You know I heard sombody complaining about the track listing and said they wished they had a dvd of their latter works. While that would be nice I'm glad they did their earlier work. They are such good jam songs.

[lunch998]

Good point.

[Shazzam]

I saw Is There Anybody Out There the other day for 20$, so I might get it. Anyone heard it?

Awesome live Cd....

[pigonthewing82]

Awesome live Cd....

Yea I strongly suggest it, just because its the only mainstream live recording of latter Pink Floyd.

[halfdeadhippo]

I saw Is There Anybody Out There the other day for 20$, so I might get it. Anyone heard it?
I've got it. My opinion is that its better than the original, just because of the extended solo sections and the inclusion of the song "What Shall We Do Now?". My verdict is that you should get it. :thumb:

Wow impressive, yea I would love to learn it, but its so long I would get lost.

[Dr. Jake Destructo]

The longest song I can play from end to end is 5 and a half minutes. My brain doesn't quite have the capacity to remember that much information. :lol:

Right now, I am actually learning Ænima by Tool, which is fairly easy, and clocks in at around 6:30, so I am expanded my mental capacity. :cool:

[pigonthewing82]

Yea I find with a lot of Pink Floyd songs they are pretty easy, but so long you give up half way through.

[Riva]

Pink Floyd albums not done on Sputnik:

More:The Soundtrack To The Motion Picture
Ummagumma
Obscured By Clouds
A Momentary Lapse Of Reason

Compilations not included.

I'm considering re-reviewing DSOTM and Animals.

How funny. I seem to have all those albums on tape/CD. :)

except comfortably numb on bass. THat clocks in at what, 5.40 or so? ****, i just checked, 6.30. anyway. that song on bass is just SO fun, especially through the solo. The 3-2-0 is just so....... impacting? just right there, and emotional i feel.... yeah.

THats a fun fun fun song to play.

[ShineOnYouCrazyDiamond]

just wondering...is anyone going to the pink floyd fest? blue floyd is back with a new singer

Where/What is that? I want to go!

[Distant Echoes]

I dont know what the Pink Floyd fest is...but there is all the sudden a floyd craze going around here. The Imax cinema (i think its united artisit now) is showing the Live in Pompeii, and their gonna be a few laser light shows, as well as some new floyd cover bands popping up. I dont know any more info about any of them, since i only heard it briefly from the radio station

I'll have to learn that tonight then :thumb:

I want to learn all of Echoes. But it would take FOREVER to memorize all of that. And, I don't think I have the proper effects for all of it. Oh well. I've realized, I haven't been posting much lately. It's sad.

Well, Blue Floyd has been around since 1999 or 2000, they just haven't toured in a while because the old lead singer died and he had formed the band. But I do agree about a lot of Floyd craze, the Pink Floyd Laser Spectacular is on tour right now, I just saw it about 2 weeks ago here in Philly. And Aussie Floyd did their first east coast tour of the States awhile ago, which was amazing.

Double post but oh well...

Meh... I heard DSOTM was alot better. They re-used alot of the effects over. The parts that concerned the concept behind the Wall were good though.

[DeusExMachina]

Live at Pompeii is amazing. For laser shows, I've seen The Wall and DSOTM. My friends saw a Pink Floyd vs. Hendrix one, they said it was amazing.

Edit: This post is officially 1337. I am totally awesome*

what are pigs on the wing?

[pigonthewing82]

what are pigs on the wing?

Well the way I interpret it (though its prob not the same as Roger) is well there is a saying "when pigs fly" so I figured it was people who break the rules and do the unexpected, and explore unchartted territory, in other words, those who rebel.

[TerryThorne]

so, are they good? Because it mentions that even dogs need shelter from them. Is this because these pigs on the wing harm their "evil" existence?

[pigonthewing82]

Well a dog who has never thought for himself would naturally fear an animal that has. The fact they have no control over the Pig on the Wing is what I think scares them.

[TerryThorne]

And one other thing. What was the prize given?

[PeenkPhloide]

There's Pink Floyd laser shows everyday where I live. :). Never been to one though.. I've never had the time, heh. Once I get my own car I'll practically live there. Yay!



There's one here everyday too pretty much. Except, the two times I went, the wall was played. I think they have liek five different shows though. I hopin its different this friday...

[Riva]

To the Dogs/Pigs conversation. The Dogs represent the military police in a communist society. The Pigs are the rich, controlling interests. The reason even Dogs need shelter is because these Pigs wield immense power over all who live under them. Think of a Pig On The Wing as being an immense overlord, hovering above the earth and casting a shadow over the everyday activities of the average man.

[slowhand]

Man, it would be nice to see Pink Floyd doing Animals.

But I will kill to see them perform the entire WYWH album... that would be awesome.

I just can't get enough of them after seeing Live at Pompeii. I have to see it every morning before I go to school, and then I hear one of their albums before classes start.

I have The Division Bell. I appreciate it more than their other peice of work without Waters, being A Momentary Lapse of Reason, but I don't agree with you that it is their best work.

I got 2 cloth posters :cool: I got them for $3 each since the record shop I bought them at was closing down.

[DeusExMachina]

You live in Seattle? I do too. :thumb:

Where in Seattle? Are you in high school, or college, or middle school, or none of the above? Heh... sorry. But like, I love Seattle, and I had to move out recently, So I want to hear about it, because if I meet someone online who I actually already knew, or someone who knows someone I know, or something like that, it would be awesome. I get to go back to Seattle at the end of the month... :thumb:

Publius Enigma... was that the weird thing with The Division Bell?

[Distant Echoes]

i think poster.com has a nice selection. I have a 12'x2.5' DSOTM going across my basement wall. I love it.

[DeusExMachina]

I know it's against the rules, and I apologize, but I need to ask for advice from people who I know have good music taste.

Not quite sure how this happened, but my school's Battle of the Bands is at the end of the month, and each band plays 3-5 songs. I'm playing lead guitar for 3 bands. Any good advice for quick tunes? Two of the bands I've never played with before, but they want me to play lead for them. Not quite sure how I got in this mess, especially with all the school work I need to do, but any advice would be MAJORLY appreciated. Emailing me at EthanRodkin@gmail.com, or hitting me up on AIM at DeusExMachina107 would be sooooo helpful its unbelievable. Thanks in advance, and if anyone is pissed about this post... I don't blame you.

[handicap$]

this is one of my favorite bands but i don't like the fact that everyone has heard korns another brick in the wall song and then they say o i love pink floyd when they haven't even heard the really band

[magicbus]

I found this while looking up the Greek myth influence in music, and was bummed that I'd never hear this.

THE MAN AND THE JOURNEY
THE MAN

a) Daybreak (band-version of Grantchester Meadows)
b) Work (early version of Biding My Time)
c) Afternoon (break, where tea was served for the band on stage)
d) Doing It (Up The Khyber)
e) Sleeping (Quicksilver)
f) Nightmare (Cymbaline)
g) Daybreak (Instrumental version of Grantchester Meadows)

THE JOURNEY

a) The Beginning (Green Is The Colour)
b) Beset The Creatures Of The Deep (Careful With That Axe, Eugene)
c) The Narrow Way (Band-version of The Narrow Way, part three)
d) The Pink Jungle (Pow R. Toc H.)
e) The Labyrinth Of Auximenes (mid-section from Interstellar Overdrive)
f) Behold The Temples Of Light (Instrumental)
g) The End Of The Beginning (Celestial Voices from A Saucerful Of Secrets)

'The Man and the Journey' were one of Pink Floyd's early concept-shows performed the first time April 14, 1969 in Royal Festival Hall, London. The event was titled 'The Massed Gadgets Of Auximenes - More Furious Madness From Pink Floyd'. Both parts of the show contained of improvisations around different Floyd songs, many of them closely related to the soundtrach from the film More, which was written simultaniously.

A recording of the show was meant to be released, but cancelled because most of the material was already released in other versions. 'The Man and the Journey' is only available on bootleg-recordings. One recording circulating is done by dutch radio VPRO in Amsterdam September 17, 1969. A part of the show was recorded for the radio-show 'Top Gear' on May 12, 1969. The recording has been released on the more ore less official italian CD: 'Pink Floyd - The Complete Top Gear Sessions' (GDR CD 9206/AB).


http://pinkfloydhyperbase.dk/unreleased/index.html#THE%20JOURNEY is the site.


EDIT:
Alright so basically I really need to find The Complete Top Gear Sessions, even though it'll probably be hard. On another note, I'm gonna check out More, Relics, and AHM. What do you guys think of these albums?

[DeusExMachina]

AHM rocks. I've heard of that concept show, but never knew too much about it. I'd be curious to see/hear it.

[pigonthewing82]

AHM never did much for me, If is a great song, but other then that I don't like it much. Though I wouldn't be supprised if it grew on me one day.

[magicbus]

I completely agree with you one of my friends loves Korn and a bunch other bands and he heard that song and was singing it at lunch break... I said to him you know what song your singing and who originally wrote it write... he said no... i explained it to him & he said OMG I love Pink Floyd ... I said you realize the Korn cover is nothing like the original ... he said i dont care... i said then never talk about Pink Floyd again...

anyway the point of the story is that you are completely right and it is disgusting what people are like




"By the way... Which one is Pink?"

Man... I really want a cool PF poster for my room... Any suggestions?

The Dark Side of the Moon album art poster is always a great choice... then again thats just my opinion

[DeusExMachina]

Man... I really want a cool PF poster for my room... Any suggestions?

I'd go with a WYWH poster. Or an Animals poster. Because they both have ridiculously cool art.

Animals is their best art work, does anybody know how it was made? They did use a real infaltable pig didn't they?! Was it Storm again?

Buy this poster...

The original plan was to take the photo like it appears on the cover, without any photo doctoring. They inflated the pig, and got it into position, but it got loose and flew away. They did get a picture of the sky during that day though. The next day, they got a picture of the pig above the building, but they didnt like the picture of the sky too much, so they took the Pig from day 2 and put it on day 1's background.

[Johnnymario]

Have any of you guys listened to The Orb and their trance versions of some of Floyd's songs.... like Light Fluffy Clouds, or Welcome to the Machine? Just wondering

[Kingofdudes]

I've heard a trance cover of Comfortably Numb once.

[thunderzstruck]

Ok, I'm looking to buy another or two Pink Floyd albums. I have Wish you were here, The Wall, and Dark side of the moon. Any suggestions?

[Kingofdudes]

Animals and Meddle are your friends

[thunderzstruck]

Are they my BEST friends? :p

there is no such thing as an official bootleg... people can join and sell things on amazon... its not like amazon orders stock (well they do) but not for everything the "sell" on their website... contact the seller and ask them to send you a video clip to assure you that you won't get cheated outta money

From amazon editorial review...

"PULSE DVD was originally scheduled for Christmas release in 2000, but was "bumped" from release indefinitely, and remains unavailable anywhere in DVD format. Oddly, the title was issued as a limited edition DVD (playable on any US DVD machines), and is now OUT OF PRINT."

I think it migh be legit, albeit expensive.

Hmmm... sounds a bit odd.

Far as I know, Light Fluffly Clouds isn't a Floyd cover... that song creeped me out when I was 12. I heard them do a trance version of Time. It sucked.

Light Fluffy Clouds isnt the orignal Floyd name, if you listen to it, it is Floyd's 1st track of the album Meddle, the track is titled "One Of These days" or " A Pillow of Winds" cant remember which one it is, but it is FLoyd.

[DeusExMachina]

Really. Well, the last time I heard that song was a year or two before I ever heard Meddle, so I don't remember too well. But, thats interesting. I'll have to give it another listen.

Xmas '00? Yikes. Thats more than four years ago. How long does it take to put a live concert on a DVD... There better be some hot *** special features.

But it'll never compare with Pompeii anyway. Obviously.

I just finished watching The Wall for the first time today.:D That film is definitely not for small children. I was going to show it to my dad, but I think I've changed my mind about that.

[DeusExMachina]

Hahahaha. I watched it with my dad. He didn't like it. My mom and sister walked into the room right at the nipple shaving scene... they didn't like it too much either.

My dad loved it. He made us watch the movie again with commentary.

[xxxRoCkJuNkiExxx]

My mom would kill me if she saw it, my dad probably would think it was okay, one of my brothers might like it and the other wouldn't, and the guy I'm sorta dating would probably just say it was okay. None of my friends have even heard of The Wall.

My favorite part is when the teacher picks up the book of poems and starts reading "Money."

Yea that was awsome how they threw that in there. Also some of the animation from The Trial is from Wish You Were Here.

That's why you need the album and the movie. It's a complete package.

[xxxRoCkJuNkiExxx]

I didn't know that.

I finally sorted through all of the songs from those PF mixes my friend gave me and I now have : 1 song from PATGOD, 6 from A Saucerful of Secrets, all of Meddle except for Fearless, Dark Side of the Moon, Animals, all of WYWH except for Welcome To the Machine, 7 songs from A Momentary Lapse of Reason, and I'll be getting The Wall within a week.

[pigonthewing82]

My favorite part is the "What Shall We Do Now" song. I really wish they left that on the album. Eh no problem its on it live, and I listen to that more anyway.

O man I remeber the 1st time i saw the Wall. My badn and I were spending the night at our bass players house so we could practice long time. It was 4 o clock in the morning... and we were bored.

When Clapton played for Waters did he also sing Gilmours parts? I don't know his voice would different.

I don't remember. I think Waters sang the whole time.

[Shazzam]

I'm pretty sure Waters did all the singing, and Clapton just did all the soloing and lead.

[pigonthewing82]

I'm pretty sure Waters did all the singing, and Clapton just did all the soloing and lead.

I don't know how good that would be then I mean Waters had a lot of trouble getting Gilmour's voice done well for Wish You Were Here on In the Flesh.

I'm pretty sure Waters did all the singing, and Clapton just did all the soloing and lead.
Confirmed. He's voice was pretty dead.

Supposedly if you start dark side of the moon at second or third roar of the MGM lion at the start of the movie, the album lines up exactly with what's happening in the movie.

Yep. It wasn't a big epic thing or anything. Waters has lost his singing capability unfortunitley, and Wish You Were Here isn't much of a guitar song either.

Dont buy floyd's greatest hits album i think its called echoes... all the songs they have are all smashed togther in floyd style..

you just cant do that. you cant play wish you were here and then blend it into say another brick in the wall,,, two totally different styles and moods... they just cant mix

if you wanna hear floyds awsome power buy all the albums... they are worth it... especially meddle i think its the underated one but sounds just as good as dsotm or the wall!

[InChains]

I just got Animals the other day. its awesome, Dogs is my favorite. i also got DSOTM and the wall

[Johnnymario]

dsotm is a good one, i like wywh better,my ranking for the top 5
1. DSOTM
2.WYWH
3. Meddle
4. The Wall
5. Animals

Is it just me, or does Cicatriz Esp by the Mars Volta take alot of things from Meddle? I heard a bassline that sounds alot like the one in One of These days, and the part in the middle is extremely similair to the middle part of echoes...
