Pink Floyd laser spectacular

   I went last night at the House of Blues in Chicago.  It was okay, a little disappointing.  The first half was Dark Side of the Moon.  My friends didn't want to watch it from the middle, so the stereo effects were lost because of where we were standing.  The second half was just a nice collection of songs from other albums.  They edited 'Shine on' in a way that I didn't appreciate.  They cut out the entire intro, and merged the verse/chorus section from the second half of the song, and I didn't like that.  They also didn't play any of animals which annoys me.  There was like 7 songs from The Wall, and a couple from PF's lesser albums.  I was sure there would be Echoes, but nope.

I guess the main reason to go was the laser show which was pretty cool at times.  Sometimes it was kind of cheesy, but the finale with "one of these days" was spectacular.  If you have nothing to do and 30$ to spend it's worth seeing.
