Yeah. and DG says the spacey mixes like that were just as much of a performance as the regular music.

I love when they talk about the On The Run sequence and reproduce it on those bad ass vintage sequencers...

There's a channel on Dish, probably on other cable too, called Paladian, or Palladium, no matter. Anyway, they've been playing Gilmour Live at Gdansk lately. Great concert. The other night they followed it with The Wall. Been a while since I watched it, particularly since I last watched it straight. Movie is great, music is fantastic.

I wish they played songs from The Final Cut more often on the radio, though.

The Gilmour show on Palladium is awesome!

Final Cut is some heavy stuff.. Lot's of Wall throwaway stuff. ALL Waters writing and all vocals - recorded while that band fell apart. From all accounts Gilmour detested it. Richard Wright was already kicked out of the band by then. Heavy times....

OMG, I have not laughed so hard in a while! I fell out of my chair! Cringed at first, but then just burst out laughing. Holy sh*& this was awful, please tell me this was a competition to perform as lousy as you can.

There is no pain.... oh yes there is! You guys!

The Youtube comments are hilarious. Worse than a 5th grade performance!

Glad to see they are down in Georgia. They should really stick with Hank Williams pieces...

Had one moment like that. It was an epic disaster of me being trashed on stage and unable to play anything decent. Luckily it was just showcasing at an open mic night with basically nobody there, and not a "real" gig. I actually had to restart a song at one point. That night, I learned the hard way that I need to stay at least somewhat sober while performing.... :oops: Being the only guitarist, if I F up, the song is kinda non-existent... :lol:

One beer a set for me.. Maybe a shot of tequila during setbreak..

If i get too hammered it makes the load out a bad thing.. i don't really start drinking until the drums are in the car or safe somewhere.. :)

lol I was just thinking they are way worse than the band at my son's school trying to play the looney tunes theme:-D I could do a better job on that song while puking from a hang over from the binder the night before.

Better to restart than to torture your audience.

Usually.

Totally..
In fact the times i can think of bad false starts are usually wrong keys.. And not that many players can transpose a whole song on the fly..
The others are just thinking your starting song A when the band is playing song B.. Communication breakdown
