It can never really be the same without Gilmour singing his verses (though my girls from Lucius there are a fine substitute) and playing his lead in the middle, but it's still pretty damn cool.

Also there's no D in Roger

I agree about Gilmour. It was odd seeing Gilmour after the breakup as the reverse was true. It just wasn't the same without Waters whenever he played classic songs.

Regardless, it was still a good show.

Still put on great shows w/o the other but it's just ... not quite the same is it?

When you've heard these songs in their original format as many times as I'm sure both of us have ...

Gilmour however has a few more of the classics (that they're likely to play in concert) that he sings alone on the original, like Money, ABITW Pt 2 and Time.
