My daughter and I played that song together at a party recently. One of the best!
Did you sing the part about the negro in a cage? That's controversial.

yes, we sang everything except the vocal solo accompaniment.

Fearless and Dogs may be my favorite PF songs. One thing I love about PF are that all their records play like concept records. Rush grabs me in this way as well. Which, thinking about it, shouldn't every album be considered a concept album? They capture a snapshot of a band during a specific period. Barring b-sides and live records, of course.

I didn't find the show super moving. This was my 4th Waters show and I'd rank it at the bottom of the four. That said, there's not much that touches the spectacle.

Yes, twice. First at the very beginning of his first tour and then again at the end of his second tour.
