Syd won't have been in the crowd...before wish you were here they mention it is for sid + for anyone else that couldnt be there.[/QUOTE]
You never know. They might not keep concert so they wouldn't've known.

I really doubt Syd was there. His sister (or something) said that she told Syd that Roger was going to play with the guys at the Live 8 concert, and he never said anything. She didn't think he'd be interested in watching it on television either.

I bet he did though.

So are you guys still doing any covers?

I am ready to record for a cover. I don't care which song. All I know is that my guitar is restrung, and I'm ready to do this thing (especially after yesterday's show :D )

Off and on there's always talk of doing covers but as far as I know we haven't done any.

There's a Pink Floyd fan site with a pretty popular forum that recorded a whole Double Disk cover album with cover art and a big booklet. It's really neat, I'll go find it and put up a link.



EDIT: Found the cover album.

Actually a picture of the back cover of the album, has the playlist.

And the actual album, booklet and all.

Good site. That's where I found the Live 8 video too. BTW, I'm not advertising it. Not even a member of it.

what exactly was their differances that caused them to split up for 24 years?

[QUOTE=magicbus]I liked that part too, shows that they were having fun.

A few people got to go right? Med, I think?[/QUOTE]

I was there, med was too :p

I didn't even get to see them on Live 8 :upset:

I was away for the weekend, but now I'm watching on AOL. I can't fast forward though.

arguing over songwriting control, name usage, and roger's ego.

Yes it is. But it comes after [i]Time[/i] and it's titled [i]Breathe (Reprise)[/i]

It's suppose to go like ...

[quote=Pink Floyd]Home, home again
I like to be here when I can
And when I come home cold and tired
It's good to warm my bones besides the fire
Far away, across the field
The tolling of the iron bell
Calls the faithfull to their knees
To hear the softly spoken magic spell.[/quote]

oh thats right! thanks. See I was looking for them somewhere in the first track....thank you

[QUOTE=Med57]They're pretty serious. As if in he's basically a complete recluse in Cambridge, so nobody's really quite sure how serious they are, but the fact that he's barely appeared in public in 30 years gives us an indication of how serious they are. :( It's very interesting if he was around at the gig last night though...just makes the whole thing that much cooler really.



If I couldn't have seen Rick from where I was standing, I would have doubted whether he was on stage...I didn't see him on the screens at all. I guess they just decided to focus on Gilmour and Waters. But yeah, Roger was really loving it, at least from where I was standing.



From all accounts MTV's coverage sucked. Not that that surprises me, but cutting midway through the [i]Comfortably Numb[/i] solo in the band's first gig in 11 years/24 years depending on how you look at it, is one of the stupidest decisions I've ever heard.[/QUOTE]

I´m from Brazil, and thank god mtv didn´t cut any parts from the show, no tv commercials or stupid comments from vj´s.

[QUOTE=moaner]arguing over songwriting control, name usage, and roger's ego.[/QUOTE]

Mainly roger's ego though :-P.

I got pissed when they cut to the VJs during the [i]Comfortably Numb[/i] solo. It was sacriligious(sp?).

That's really cool

One thing that came to mind when I was watching Live8 was how the Latin American continent went completely unrepresented except, of course, for Shakira I guess since you saw in in Brazil uncut, and we in the US UK and Canada couldn't watch it without commentarty, South America had better representation than the English-Speaking world :lol:

I'm all up for doing the vocals for some of the songs. My flu is finally on the way out, so I'll try my hardest to get those done as soon as possible.

[QUOTE=magicbus]I liked that part too, shows that they were having fun.

YEah, they had there diffrences but they are back together now and enjoying it.

ALso, I got WYWH on Friday and It's awesome. I don't really like SOYCD that much though. I thought the middle three tracks were better. I should give SOYCD a closer listen though. I would say my favorite is the title track or Have a Cigar.

*Maybe know I can do my reveiw for WYWH :o Are we still doing those, because I don't think I'll have the time to write mine.

Thats true :lol: We had a full coverage from 9:00 am to 21:00 pm (local time) it was just great.

I just got back from my cottage with no cable, so I still havn't even seen it yet (I know, I know).

I'm in the process of downloading it right now.

Welcome to the Machine is a track that I could see getting annoying, but HaC is an awesome song IMO

I love every song on WYWH, some more than others, but I think they are all great.

Have a Cigar is a brilliant song. I find that Welcome to the Machine can get a bit, uhh.. monotonous and the synthesizers annoy the crap out of me.

But Wish You Were Here is perfection in a song.

Pink Floyd was offered 200 Million $ to tour the world, but refused.

You dumb ****ing hippie. "All you touch and all you see is all your life will ever be," isn't about materialism, it is truth. You have to appreciate life for what it is...
