The Wall 2!

This proposal reminds me of psychoderelict, the story about a jaded rock star by Pete Townshend, who at the time was a spent force, as was the Who (despite being only going into their 50s at the time!)

That album wasn't very good, but quite Proggy.

Very indulgent too. But it did relay the whole aged rock star hiding in his mansion sort of thing.

As for the DVD of the original Wall concerts... indeed I would really love to see that, and I guess sooner or later it will come to happen; as long as a possible DVD release of the current Wall tour doesn't get in the way (or perhaps it he is waiting in order to release it as a duo pack).   Lo siento mucho, mi amigo, no tienes razon, vete aqui:   http://www.brain-damage.co.uk/albums/pink-floyds-wish-you-were-here-sacd-review-and-interviews-including-james-gu.html   The record company thought they could extract more money from fans by releasing The Wall box with only 2.0 mixes then, selling the 5.1 mix later(in a limited box set prolly...)   If you read the article you will learn that the engineer claims there was no time to do a 5.1 mix for the Wall in time for the Feb 28, 2012 box set release.  This is a dubious claim as the Pink Floyd box sets were oficially announced in mid 2011!   Anyway, aparently a problem is that The Wall multi-track tapes have some degradation so that needs to get cleaned up(digitally) before a 5.1 mix can be conducted.  No schedule has been offered to date.  So nothing happending here until at earliest Christmas shopping 2012.   I can't freakin wait though, because if there ever was a musical recording that was made for 5.1 it would be The Wall!   Wish You Were Here & DSOTM are breathtaking in 5.1 But I do think The Wall will take 5.1 to a whole new level.   Now, where the heck is YES - Tales From Topographic Oceans in 5.1???

Oh well, too bad. I guess I just didn't remember well enough. Still, I think they should have been more coherent with the "immersion" editions. If they were going to have the 5.1 mixes, then they should all have had them, and if that had to make the album take longer to be released, then they should have taken the time to do so. We are talking about Pink Floyd, and about the most expensive and inclusive version of their albums, so they should have taken their time. Instead, they decided to release it with a previousley released live album (unless I'm mistaken once again, but at least they had originally stated that would be included), and a bunch of demos which, as far as I've heard, are no more than curiosities. From what I've heard of Wall demos, the only one that's good enough for me to want to hear it over and over again, is a demos from "Another Brick in the Wall 1"... and it's not the one featured on the "Best Buy Sampler" cd.

Wasn't the actor who played the teacher in The Final Cut film?

Will there be a song called "9 Feet Underground" on it?
