Haha, it's ok. You can be a dead head if you want.

I would never call myself a Deadhead because I haven't seen any of their shows, so I can't really know what it's like. I'm like a new generation Deadhead.

[QUOTE=Rounder]I think I've listened to Meddle more than any. I think because I was so affected by Live at Pompeii. One of the most amazing performances I've ever seen. After that it would have to be WUWH.[/QUOTE]

Live At Pompeii is just awesome; some of the interviews are irritating though because it appears to me as if Floyd were very arrogant (And not just Waters ...), but it may have been just a growing up thing :p . It's also funny when Wright and Gilmour mess up their lines on the first part of Echoes :thumb:

/me has seen Phil Lesh live :cool:
I dont ever listen to the Grateful Dead either

I'm sure everyone in this thread knows about Roger Waters touring.

And for my first post in this thread, I would like to ask;

In september hes gonna be here (in Toronto) and me and my dad like some of his stuff (NP: The Pros and Cons Of Hitch Hiking - Running Shoes) and I kinda want to go...

But tickets are over 100 dollars.

EDIT: Looking up the tickets, its in the Air Canada Center, to be at the back would cost: $125
Floor Tickerts: $650

That seems pretty ridiculous, but.....
END EDIT

Over the radio I heard he was gonna play the entire Dark Side Of The Moon, but I still think hes gonna play a lot more of his stuff, not PFs...

So.....

Will the price be worth it?

Go: 2
No: 0

I saw him at Roskilde Festival 2006. The sound was superb, the best I have ever heard. He even placed loudspeakers around the concertplace so you get this stereo effect. I didn't get the entire show, because I had to go home, which means I got to hear Another Brick in the Wall pt.2 (and the preceding introtrack), Comfortably Numb and some other song I couldn't really recognize over 1 kilometer away. But he/they played all the famous tracks, and they did it great. Only minus was some of his cheesy, political songs written outside of Pink Floyd, like the one against George Bush (Leaving Beirut).

I recommend that you go, but then again, I wasn't in the same situation pricewise.

edit: I just found the setlist. Great show.

If he's doing Dark Side Of The Moon, then yes you shold definatly go.

That's an awesome setlist.

And on the topic of [i]Live At Pompeii[/i]; I reckon that the interviewer was on the verge of punching Roger during that scene when they're eating the oysters.

Quick question. My friend told me he heard a PF song that Nick Mason sang in, but he didn't remember which one it was. Do any of you know what song (or songs) Nick sang in?

One of these days I'm going to cut you in to little pieces ;)

That's Nicks line

Nick Mason says in his biography of Pink Floyd that there are two other songs on which he has vocals but that they were never released. Maybe your friend heard a bootleg. They might be on that huge rarities-collection A Treeful Of Secrets.

What Med said, but then see them both, they are both worth it :)

floyd is amazing, im currently listen to animals and wish you were here alot and getting more into gilmore's soloing style

Dads unwilling to pay that amount of money for the concert now :-\

Oh well. That would of been a nice setlist to see.

I picked up one of Roger Water's solo CDs yesterday at the Library. Haven't listened to it yet though.

Which one?

[QUOTE=Computer Jesus]Which one?[/QUOTE]
Ca ira

I'm going to pop it in right now

Just so you know, that's his new opera album. Probably not much like Floyd, although I do want to hear it.

Yes. It's an opera.

It's interesting.

[QUOTE=Computer Jesus]Upload to MetalOz plz[/QUOTE]

osnap

damnit

[quote=Riva]Roger's best album is Amused To Death.[/quote]Gimme a 1, gimme a 2...

I've been listening to it quite a bit recently. I'd love to see Roger if I had the opportunity, but the chances of him gracing my beloved down under are nil to nil.

None of Pink Floyd will ever come to Australia. :(

NP - Dark Side of The Moon album inspired by this thread. :cool:

Cool beans :thumb:

I don't have any of Waters' or Gilmour's solo work. I've heard it varies from 'meh' to 'good', nothing terrible or great. I might pick up On An Island sometime, but I still need The Final Cut, AMLOR, and Division Bell first.

I don't remember Floyd being arrogant or pretentious in the interviews on LAP, but I might just not remember. I wish Floyd had done a proper rockumentary, like The Kids Are Alright. How sweet would that have been. Led Zeppelin too.

np: Fearless

[QUOTE=Riva]None of Pink Floyd will ever come to Australia. :([/QUOTE]

Gilmour was there yesterday?

I've heard Roger's solo stuff is a lot like Final Cut, so I'm game. That's arguably my favorite Floyd album. :)

123. I love TFC so much.

1234. Get [i]Amused to Death[/i]. It probably won't hit you at first, but it really is an awesome album. Typical Waters. And just like [i]The Final Cut[/i]!

This guy's blog has a lot of Floyd bootlegs some of you might want to check out.

I've recently found myself enamored with Pink Floyd. Rather odd considering I found them obnoxious not even two weeks ago.

They grew on me too.

3 or 4 years ago I was like, okay I like Dark Side of the Moon, but their other stuff is meh.

Then I was like okay some of this other stuff is pretty neat.

Now I just love 'em to death from the Piper at the Gates of Dawn to the Division Bell :)

Hehe I was the same, when I was a child my parents ALWAYS used to play either WYWH, DSOTM or Animals whilst we had our Sunday roast (Odd yes I know) ... and well I used to hate Sunday roasts so that kinda gave me a negative slant on Floyd cus I was always in a bad mood when I heard them!

Then about 3 years ago; at school my business studies teacher made a presentation on PowerPoint and the song in the background was 'Money'. Obviously with the bass riff I was tapping along to it, and I thought to myself, **** this is good! So, I went home and listened to DSOTM ... and it started from there. Which is weird considering how I found them boring when I was about 5 :p

... What a weird way to begin enjoying a band ...

Haha, yeah, that's a pretty strange way :lol: I wish I had parents like yours who played cool music. My dad was a huge rock fanatic when he was younger but he never really played me music or anything, and my mom was never a huge music fan or anything, although she told me she used to listen to DSotM when she did her homework :cool:

I almost bought PULSE today, but I decided I can always get it later, as I'm not in a Floyd kick right now. I bought Primus - Sailing The Seas Of Cheese instead. What a cool album :lol:

I'd bought DSOTM a while back, then my brother, thinking I didn't have it bought it for me. Should return one copy and buy something else. Looking at the Pulse DVD. It's surprisingly cheap for a 2-disk set, only $35NZ!

I bought Pulse yesterday and watched it today. Pretty cool stuff. Their live show was unbelievable.

But Sailing the Seas of Cheese is good too. Way good.
