firstly, it looks like that that setlist was off, and it was just the usual I-V. but he has played the second half of shine on, in those 2001-2002 london/paris runs where I-V opened the set and VI-IX closed the set.

Re: Wish You Were Here - The Pink Floyd + Solo Thread
saw the waters wall movie last night. i saw this wall tour in dc couple of years ago so it was cool to see it again in movie form, but what really impressed me was the additional footage / narrative they added. as for the performance stand outs to me are mother, run like hell, brick in the wall, but the downer is comfortably numb in terms of the guitar solo. no one can touch gilmour guitar tone and voice on that song.
the Q&A with waters and mason at the end of the movie is very funny and interesting, you can see the prick/megalomaniac side of waters a bit in some of the interaction. of course, he's older and softer now but i can imagine how a younger waters would really piss off the rest of the band.

Re: Wish You Were Here - The Pink Floyd + Solo Thread
i wrote up a review for the echoes list so might as well post it here.
I came away very happy with the entire production. It's not without some (minor) faults, but I definitely see this release as something I will be able to enjoy watching on multiple occasions. Very glad they did not omit much of anything from the actual show, and the documentary portion at the very least is mandatory viewing for anyone who cares about The Wall and Roger Waters.
I was very impressed with the sound and visual quality. Filming something like this had to be challenging, and I felt they did an excellent job getting various angles to really get a sense of just how enormous an undertaking the show was while at the same time giving us those intimate peeks into what is going on in and around the stage. One of my favorite shots has to be an angle from behind Roger toward the end of the first half. There is a 5 or so brick-sized opening right in front of him, so you can see the packed-in crowd through this relatively small portal, and the rest of the wall takes up much of the frame. What a perspective, and I can't imagine this view got old for Roger at all. And as a whole, the movie just LOOKS great. As for the sound, we were in the last row of the theater, so I don't think we got the experience we could have had, but even so you could tell the surround sound was put to good use- the documentary bits where the viewer perspective was walking through the house had all kinds of things going on.
I did enjoy the incidental music created for the film and do hope that is released in full form.
I think someone else mentioned that a bit of luster was lost with the obviously staged nature of some of the documentary portions, and I would agree with that. This was a very emotional and real experience for Roger, and as a fan and viewer that lack of realness was a bit disheartening at times. And though Roger has a fantastic band supporting him, I still have yet to hear a performance by them that stacks up favorably to Pink Floyd - it's absolutely true, the whole was greater than the sum and it is truly unfortunate Pink Floyd will never be whole again.
I hadn't listened to The Wall in ages, so it's always great to have those moments where you go, "oh yeah, I forgot how much I fucking love this." Comfortably Numb is my favorite song by any band ever, and though it'd be easy to mock those younger folks who were shown crying tears of joy, I was that person, too, and in a way I still am. That song can move me to tears, and seeing those people having the same visceral reaction I have had made me joyful that I share a common emotional bond with these people I've never met.
The Q&A afterward was equal parts fun and frustrating. Certainly enjoyable viewing, but they very clearly held back their tongues in some parts. It was good to see Nick and Roger sharing jokes and stories after all that has happened, but I'm glad Nick held his own in a couple instances where he could have deferred - for as much as Roger has softened in these last 15 years, that "old, miserable Roger" is certainly still an integral part of him today.
I am definitely looking forward to the inevitable Blu-ray and other assorted physical releases. They will have a shelf in my home anxiously awaiting their arrival.

Pink Floyd is probably the best and greatest band that has ever existed, and Roger's song and lyric writing was absolutely essential to their success. I love Gilmour, but Roger was the soul of Pink Floyd. I read somewhere recently that Roger is working on new material for a new solo record. I hope it happens!

Re: Wish You Were Here - The Pink Floyd + Solo Thread
I wasn't expecting him to actually play with wounded veterans. That was pretty interesting and inspiring. One of the three drummers was missing all his limbs save for his left arm, and the singer, lead guitarist, and bassist had all lost their legs and been badly mangled. They played short videos in between certain songs where one guy said finding a way back into music with all of his free time staved off suicide.AndySlash wrote:thoughts?Will wrote:Going to see Roger Waters in DC with Billy Corgan, Tom Morello, and I think Sheryl Crow.

Tom Morello was the shit. The Ghost of Tom Joad was incredible. Most sat for the bulk of the show, but that brought the crowd roaring to its feet. They had given a bunch of tickets away to military families (I think) because there were tons of empty seats scattered throughout the venue, but someone who was a guest of one of the performers told me it was technically sold out.
When The Tigers Broke Free was really intense. Didn't realize it had never been played, and Shine On You Crazy Diamond was my personal favorite highlight. Mother was great as were some of the covers. Wide River to Cross, Crystal Clear Brooks, and Forever Young were all really solid too.
Billy Corgan didn't play guitar, he just butchered the vocals to Wish You Were Here and everything else he sang, and Sheryl Crow bailed, submitting a video instead. Whatever. Pink Floyd tunes and Tom Morello going off Rage-style were more than enough for the cost of admission.
I might be able to get to an E-bow.

2. Candy and a Currant Bun
3. See Emily Play
4. Scream Thy Last Scream
5. Vegetable Man
6. Apples and Oranges
7. Paintbox
8. It Would Be So Nice
9. Julia Dream
10. Point Me At the Sky
11. Careful With That Axe, Eugene
12. Embryo
13. Biding My Time
14. Crumbling Land
15. Country Song
16. When the Tigers Broke Free (Single Version)
Bonus Tracks:

Re: Wish You Were Here - The Pink Floyd + Solo Thread
A lot of the stuff on those "homemade" Syd Barrett sets is total crap compared to what circulates. Old sources, tons of noise reduction, stereo "ambience" added, etc....in addition to the extreme amount of worthless content, which is sometimes because of "outfakes" and multiple versions of the same thing being included. Unfortunately, there has yet to be a good distillation of what is actually out there.AndySlash wrote:that set can be considered overkill but it's a must have. i remember sending out a few b+p's back in the day and what a chore that was.Kevin Davis wrote: Sourced from the "Tree Full of Secrets" set, and loving every damned second of it.

Re: Wish You Were Here - The Pink Floyd + Solo Thread
you're referring to the 'have you got it yet?' sets? yeah, i never bothered with those.
i listened to bit of the 'tree' set after posting here. made me wonder if anybody's bothered to upgrade those. doesn't appear so.

I'm getting sick of remasters, but they usually do sound better. There should be a remaster discount for people who already own the original. :/

Re: Wish You Were Here - The Pink Floyd + Solo Thread
Yeah I'm very interested in how these end up sounding. There are so fucking many versions of their albums on vinyl, it's exhausting trying to figure out the most ideal ones to own. Maybe this will finally put it to bed. I still want to have original Harvest copies of them, for collections' sake, even if they don't sound great.
