if you had them for david gilmour i'd be jealous.
i've seen waters live at glastonbury with a quadraphonic sound setup playing a 2 and a half hour set, i was centre stage, and centre of all the four speakers, with a person infront of me who was chain smoking+rolling some rather potent green. needless to say, not only was i revelling in the musical mastery, but completely smashed too.
twas damn good. waters' voice isn't what it used to be, but he still plays awesomely and knocks out some fucking brilliant sets.
this year, i be seeing The Who at glastonbury, along with Bjork, Pendulum, a shiteload of others, and...
Michael Eavis has announced that "the biggest band in the world" are playing.
no announcement on who this is.
anyone got a clue? i've thought about biggest as in record sales, popularity, size, but i don't know. anyone? If you think a forum is going downhill, you have no-one to blame but yourself. | |

Bleh Gilmour is easy to see, hes a whore when it comes to the $$$. I refuse to see endless tours of the reunified Pink Floyd (Sans Waters) because its not Pink Floyd without waters, shit id see it if it was waters and noone else touring as floyd and still feel it was floyd enough. Waters was the heart and brains of the band. | |

gilmour easy to see?
his last album release was almost impossible to get tickets for and they cost fuckloads, and dissapeared within a day. i didn't go on the grounds of it costing way too fucking much. i don't think that's down to him though, more his production companies who know they can reel in the cash. they werent the ones that sold his 3.6 million £ mansion and gave the money to a charity to build homes and community centres for the homeless because -
"It seemed obscene of us to be rattling around in such a large home when others had nowhere to live. I'd had the house 20 years, It took me a long time to persuade myself to sell it, but Polly said: 'You don't bloody need it, it's too big, it's a bloody great mausoleum'."
its a shame they don't get on but hey, such is life. waters was the brains but i don't think he was the soul. all of them were that. i'd say the soul still lay with syd as that's where they all drew their energy from and who they looked up to all the way til the end.
pulse was still an absolutely mental performance. they did well after waters' left, but nothing with the same balls and creativity really. some brilliant tracks such as sorrow, but they were more just a rock band with extra flair. if only i could get a real video recording off the wall live. i've got the superdeluxe "is there anybody out there" but thats all sadly.
have you heard waters' opera thing he was doing? i'd like to check it out. If you think a forum is going downhill, you have no-one to blame but yourself.

well, compared to other bands like.... genesis' creative downfall after peter gabriel left, they did well.
they didn't go to complete and utter shit. momentary lapse of reason and division bell were good albums. don't have the vision of DSOTM / Wall / Final Cut, but they weren't complete crocks of shit. If you think a forum is going downhill, you have no-one to blame but yourself. | |
