shniggens Posted June 23, 2003 Share Posted June 23, 2003 I'm not sure when the DVD was released, but I saw the show when it came through town in 2001 (I believe). Anyway, I was sitting towards the back of the venue, so I missed out on all of the show's continuous glory. If you haven't seen it, and you are a fan of Waters/Floyd, then definately check it out. The big band performances are phenomenal. Good key playing, awesome guitar, background vocals are some of the best I've ever heard, production, etc., etc. The only problem I have is that he didn't pick more tunes from his Pros and Cons album. And I think he was lip syncing some of the vocals, because they sounded exactly like the albums. But as far as a big band sound goes, these guys are top notch. Sorry if it's old news.

Odyssian Posted June 23, 2003 Share Posted June 23, 2003 Do they play any Floyd tunes on the DVD? I'm not familiar with Roger Water's solo material. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same with no pros and cons! That's one of my favorite things Roger Waters has done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not familiar with Roger Water's solo material.Yeah, they play some good Floyd tunes. Dogs and Money being the best in my opinion. Great solo stuff on Money. Pick up Pros and Cons of Hitchiking. That's probably the best for Waters alone. I think it's on par with early Floyd, and definately better than the current Floyd without Waters.
