Notes:
What a fantastic concert!!! I always been in the 'anti-solo'
career side but i must say this show will be always in the
back of my mind. Extremely well played, i have nothing wrong
to say about it. And less when i was there at the next day
experiencing it live. The fucking flames!!! Why nobody told
me there was 40mts tall fucking flames!!! That only worth
the money of the ticket. Me and my mate were at 100mts far
from the stage, and we felt the hot from the flames, so
i asume that the people of the VIP section got a real nice
tan :)
Experiencing a performance of Dark Side of The Moon live,
with at least one of the original members on it, was a doubt
for me at first. And of course i cant compare to the experience
of many ppl that saw the original performances on the 70s,
but to me in that precise moment was as magical as any other
experience from the 70s. I lived it that way, and the giant
screen, the perfect sound, that heavenly music and at least
Roger Waters on stage, was all to me. I spent hours saying
'hey that's not PF it's the same than watching a tribute
band with only 1 member on it' but NO. I was wrong, i had
a great time.
The band plays absolutely perfect, and the guitarist played
the Gilmour's solos even more accurate than him! (I wouldnt
dare to say better because after all, our faboty is our
fatboy :)
Highlights of the show to me were Have a Cigar (the solo
was just perfect), Sheep, The Great Gig in the Sky (March
18th performance sounded a bit better to me) and Us & Them.
Man, Us & Them is just great, a huge emotional charge.
About the recording itself, i spent like an hour moving
the antenna to the right position, i felt paranoid about
it cos you can hear a bit of interference during Speak To
Me, but then it disapear, and it's the only moment where
you will hear something disturbing. Except for this small
interference on StM, it sounds spotless. According to dan
it sounds great.
Also, the DJs were kindly enough, they only talk at the
beginning of the songs, or in between songs better said,
and leave the song itself speechless, and no radio ID either.
Most noticeable on the Dark Side of the Moon set where they
didnt annoyed at all with their comments.... an example
is that from Money to the very End of Eclipse, broadcast
is speechless.
So a big thanks to danlynch and kudos to him for puting
this thing together and releasing it for all of you. I hope
you enjoy this recording as much as i did.
cheers, gbc
