Notes
by the taper:
Recorded using Sony PCM-M1 DAT with AT831s Series Microphones
through a Low-Z to Hi-Z Input Transformer.
Mastered from DAT to Pioneer PDR-609 Stand alone CDR > CD
Wave > flac
This recording came out very well but there is some wind
noise during the first set as there was a storm brewing
which we were lucky to almost avoid during the gig. This
does not in my opinion detract to any great degree from
the enjoyment of the recording.

This
was always going to be any interesting test for me.
I saw two David Gilmour gigs in Manchester and London followed
by the two Roger Waters gigs in Verona all within 11 days.You
already know from my previously torrented recording of Manchetser
how great I thought the David Gilmour gig was.
Personally I have always been a fan of Roger's work above
that of David since the split in 1987. That is not to say
I am not a Gilmour fan so please do not start that thread
here. But after the Manchester and London gigs I thought Roger
would not be able to top them. How wrong I was proved to be.
The whole live presentation of the music by Roger and band
is done from a completely different perspective to that of
David. Whilst David's gig was more laid back and well mannered,
Roger's, in comparison, is a full on rock show.
The setlist was excellent and was tweeked just enough from
the 1999/2000/2002 to include a number of interesting additions.
It was great to see "The Gunner's Dream" back for the first
time since the Pros and Cons tour in 1984/1985. Also to see
him play "The Fletcher Memorial Home" for the first time as
well as "Sheep" for the first time in 29 years were treats.
But let's not dwell on specific songs. The show as a whole
works magnificently. This recording is from the second of
the two nights in Verona. I recorded the first night too but
it misses the encores due to technical difficulties. I will
post it anyway as it is until I can find another recording
to patch the missing encores from.
Finally I would like to dedicate this recording to a few English
guys who I met in a bar near the backstage entrance to the
Arena di Verona on Sunday. It was nice talking to you and
I know we all had a ball these two nights.
I have included a few photos I took. If anyone with any expertise
wants to use them to make some artwork then please feel free.
Enjoy
