^ I guess he says this on every show. LOL

The show is fantastic, a must see.
Who are you and who am I to say we know the reason why... (D. Gilmour)

Went to the Manchester show on 20 May - fully endorse the rave reviews. He said the crowd that night was best since December. How did he know - only audience allowed to sing "13 channels of sh1t......" since then.

Went to last nights show ,my first time at the O2. Impressive venue and mostly very impressive performance especially Dave Kilminsters amazing rendition of Gilmours solo on you know what.
Kept staring at the Wall as it was being built noticing a few cracks here and there that shouldn't have been thereLOLAnyway the way it was used as a projection screen is very neat.
Signed a couple of Amnesty international petitions when I found I couldn't get in the toilets at the interval (the usual prog toilet syndrome).
On a more personal note it was my birthday and I stayed near the venue in a cheap B & B with a couple of mates who also went. Enjoying a few beers with a couple of mad Pink Floyd fans before and after seeing a brilliant gig was the perfect way to spend my Birthday.
Cheers.

I was gutted at not being able to go. And seeing Gilmour and Waters on stage is so great. The show looks incredible and they must have been filming the Gilmour show.

This article pretty much sums it up. Good news, at least flames of hope are sort of starting to burn.

Great stuff, I gather. Too bad it was way over my financial capacities, this time... Let's hope he keeps touring. And Gilmour too.

It was a shame we missed them by 1 night, but I genuinely don't consider myself unlucky - after all, I did see them all there 31 years ago

It looks amazing Jim. I will have to settle for the DVD I suppose.
