well just got back , rough as a badgers ring !
was it as good as last year @ hyde park ? well i have to say no
set list the same , apart from 1or 2 maybe .
suppose i was hopeing for more of a better atmosphere .which wasnt really there certanly not as good as in the flesh dvd , but there ya go sometimes ya can expect differant things , and not get what ya want
overall still good , fletcher memorial was a good highlight personally . and some good animations as well , a 30 foot arm would come up on screen and put a ciggie in an ash tray !!! then disapear again , lol made me chuckle . but simple minds and all that . but ye good day out .

I went to Roger Waters Dark Side Of The Mont A While go in Mexico,it was the best concert ive ever attended on my entire life (im 15 lol),anyways it was perfect,everyone singing,wish you were here,Shine on you Crazy Diamond,all those classics,then the Dark Side Of The Moon, Awesome,perfect,the a giant Pig With Bush-oriented hate messages and a mayan calendary,then A Giant Real Dark Side of the moon logo made of laser,simply awesome and perfect,then at the encore Another brick in the wall and comfortably numb....no words at that...

good one Pollin, I have to say that I've seen many concerts in my time, including many Monsters of Rock fests, Reading fests etc.... and Floyd without Roger - and I'd agree.

His concert here in Auckland was probably the best I've seen - even though there were technical probs in 'set the controls' - Snowy started his solo and his lead cut out. So at the end Rog said they had to do it again from the start of the solo.

He's genuinely one of the most passionate performers I've been privileged to see, the stage show was amazing and the pig was released at the end of the show :) What more could you want! Oh yeah, we were in the second row as well :lol: Oh what would Floyd be now if they hadn't split!!!! We wouldn't be listening to Polly Samsons second rate lyrics for a start - but I guess we'd get more and more anti-bush/US/china/anyone rhetoric from Rog, Ying/Yang, there ought to be a balance.
