Roger Waters (Pink Floyd) live on Colbert

[BigmanPigman]

"This Is Not A Drill Tour" will play at 40 venues this year.

I have seen his solo shows and they rock! They are beyond rock shows, they are theater. They are so good you break the bank and go again.

1. The classic film THE WALL is a BRILLIANT reminder...

That PINK Floyd is still a great musical force to be reckoned with like Queen and others of that kind.

2. I saw the tour show of The Wall at Nassau Coliseum.

I still have the shirt..... quite a bit thread worn but the graphic is still recognizable. But it doesn't fit me anymore.

3. I'm jealous.

I couldn't go to that show, and they only played NY and LA due to the cost of the show's theatrical wall. I graduated High School in 1980 and that album was the theme for the whole class that year.

I did catch his The Wall tour twice in 2010 and it was fucking fantastic.

4. That, Animals and Pulse. + one Waters solo.

The one I'm jealous of, one of the guys I used to teach with -- saw the tour for Dark Side. Approximately 1/2 hour of heart beat, getting louder and louder...

One of my most amazing concerts was Mike Oldfield, 13th Street, in the East Village.


Oh, Keith Moon's last concert at Madison Sq. Garden.... and Zep's last concert at the Garden. After the show, I was standing at the side street which turns out was the exit road for Garden performers. Out comes a limo with Plant in the back seat with a blond...they were all over each other on the car seat. I was gonna ask for an autograph but figured I would just leave him alone.

Another concert at the garden... Pete Townsend got his blood on me. He was doing his windmill thing and I guess cut himself on a guitar string.


The things we remember.

6. A friend of mine got part of Moon's drumstick

which broke during the performance. He cherishes that like it is gold, I don't blame him.

5. I've truly come to despise this song

There are far too many who seem to have taken the lyrics as a commandment to refuse any and all education. Now they've built their own wall of Q-facts, Fox and worse lies, and Trumpian fascism.

7. Saw the original Pink Floyd in the early '70s at Winterland in SF

I think this was the show. I remember flashing pots on both side of the side during "Be Careful With That Axe, Eugene." They'd made it so you saw a skull in the light flash. We all screamed like crazy.

8. I was born too late for the good stuff...

In 1972 I was 10 and the Partridge Family was my level of rock and roll. So sad!!!
