Title: Rodger Waters concert
Post by: Tony H on 16 May 2008, 00:21:53
Just got in after going to the Roger Waters gig at the Echo arena, absolutely awesome. They played a lot of old Floyd stuff including a complete rendition  Dark Side Of The Moon album. I think some of the ticket towts must have taken a hit. Even though the concert was a complete sell out in a matter of hours there was still quite a few empty seats. As I walked up to the venue I overheard a towt with a wad of tickets in his hand say "I'm going to have to sell this f*cking lot at cost" oh well "sh1t happens"

 :'( I would have adored that concert; I remember seeing a advert for it in a daily paper, but thinking it`d be an immediate/complete sell-out! :-?

Did he play any of the (excelllent) Radio KAOS set?...."The Tide is Turning", "The Powers That Be"....etc.

....Debs. is VERY envious of you! ;)

seen waters a couple of times now, gilmour four / five times including the albert hall gig released on dvd a few months back and was at every performance of his 'live in concert / unplugged' type gigs that went out on dvd from the south bank.

i also went to see pink floyd in 1994 at earls court, the pulse dvd gig. awesome. dsotm in full there too. watched it at the weekend again. would have loved to see them during performances of the wall, but alas, i was only 2 in 1980  ::)

i like waters gigs as he tends to play a different selection of floyd stuff, more from animals, final cut, the wall etc.
