yeah waters setlists are mindblowing at the moment. Having him close that festival was absolutely the right thing to do.

Cant wait for that tour to come to europe. Shame it will cost £100+ to see it...

I guess gilmour isnt comfortable playing a gig full of songs that someone else wrote (apart from his wife)

 

 

I guess Waters isn't comfortable playing a gig full of solo songs that nobody else listens to (apart from his wife)!

Just started. After Astronomy Domine I'm thinking I may need to pause while I go outside and medicate for a few minutes

Mine keeps changing Woffy to Wifey. Have to watch out for that one.

It also once changed an entire message from "love you, be home soon" to "already smashed so going to stay out in town"

"Love you, but not smashed enough to fully appreciate this Floyd documentary. I'll be in the garden for a bit. When I come back in:

Don't talk to me 'til it's finished. 

Do periodically wipe the drool off my chin"

Are you certain we've not met? You appear to have my card marked sir.

Roger Water is apparently doing his new 'Us + Them' tour in the summer, new album coming too (Not that we are likely to see him at Glastonbury)

All American dates so far. would love it to come over this side of the pond. Some of the setlists are hairs on the back of your neck stuff

It definitely will. It'll be the last great gig of our lives. Unmissable

That looks fantastic. Where, when and what is that show?

How come Pink Floyd never played Glastonbury?  Did they ever approach the festival?

If strong rumours have it, they were very close to playing in 2008

I attended that year.

 

I would have died and gone straight to heaven.

I'm surprised people aren't up in arms about that.

[GlastoEls]

^ That was David Gilmour's show (featuring Rick) rather than Pink Floyd, no?

[paulshane]

The Roger Waters set in 2002 still stands as possibly the best live performance I've ever seen, and at the time I only had a vague interest in Pink Floyd/the solo stuff. I think it was the first year with the extra speakers, and they were put up just before he went on. I still vividly recall the sound of jets flying overhead that was so realistic there was a reverse mexican wave where the entire crowd ducked from right to left, because the surround sound was so good. Amazing stuff!

good decision if you ask me. Who wants to watch a load has-beens when you could be watching kings of leon, jay z and the verve?

And then he was completely blown away by the artist who followed him.
