I must say, that was the greatest stage show I have ever seen. With the pig in the audience and all the bubbles and confetti and fireworks, not to mention the amazing graphics on the screen during the show.

I believe last night's was his last show of this tour, and I'm very glad I went! His voice was actually better than I was expecting; he only seemed to have trouble hitting a few notes. The lead guitar and saxophone solos were impeccable, and the entire performance of DSOtM was excellent. I was also very impressed by how well The Great Gig in the Sky was sung. The only drawback I thought was the setlist in the first half.

I still think about the spectacle of it all - the concert [not to mention the music ] has wonderful enduring qualities and that's got to be the best test of how much you enjoyed it imo.

Yes, Roger's voice is weaker (well, he's 63) but Jon Carin in now Mr. Pink Floyd, his voice is excellent, very similar to Dave's.
Kiliminster has a good voice but I liked more Doyle Bramhal II on In the Flesh, I saw no flaws in the concert, probably after playing in Mexico twice, Colombia,, Perú, Chile, Argentina (Two conseutive days) and Brazil also twice, his voice was waeker because in Perú he didn't used playback.
Maybe we caught him fresh still, Argentina's schedule was very hard, two 3 hours concerts in two consecutive days and in a stadium, is hard foir anybody.

He played here in Brazil last week. The show was great! A real superproduction...
His voice is weak, I'm almost sure there was playback in Sheep... and worse than this: the singers who sung Gilmour's parts were not good... they sang well, but their voices were not half as pleasing as Mr. Gilmour's. |

i was at the sydney concert as well, highilght for me was set the controls for the heart of the sun and sheep which concluded the first half of the set. Even though i was about 15rows from the nose bleed the sound was perfect and roger's voice sounded great. definatly reccomend to anyone!

I will also post some photos being that digital cameras are allowed (As long as they are not proffesionals with zoom), If he does one and I can meet some peope, will try to get a pass for the Press Conference.
Will try to do the same for the Jethro Tull Concert the next month, maybe easier because this one will be in a smaller theater, the Roger Waters is in the stadium 5 blocks from my house.

This show is so big with all the pyrotechnics effects, the videos on the big screen, the pig, the astronaut, and so on, that even if we were not as close as you will be seated Ivan, it did not matter. Au contraire, being seated up allowed us to appreciate the whole thing. Anyway, enjoy yourself, and don't forget to make a post here after the show. |

Thanks MRGD, I got lucky, being subscribed to a newspaper I am entitled to get a ticket with 20% of discount, so I'm getting tomorrow my VIP pass for US$ 130.00, just found it when only two tickets were availlable.
It's about 35 mts of the stage, the Super VIP tickets are not so good being that the stage is going to be very high.

mrgd,
I saw this show in Montreal last year in september. My husband and I loved it. I agree with you, it's a show to not miss. It's worthed the price.
