It's always great when you can get your eyesight fixed and enjoy a concert at the same time! 8)

I'm leaving to Orange in a few hours ... Can't wait ! I resisted the temptation to listen to recordings not to be spoiled... But I have seen the setlists ! Great, only miss the great "Echoes", but this is understandable that it is not played without Rick...

Better that than colonoscopy!

I got tickerts fot the last RAH show, that is also the last European show of this little tour, and the seats are located in the chorus!
I hope that from my position in the chorus, I don´t miss most of the visual efects. That seats are more or less sided, so you are not completely behind them, but I have some fears to miss an important part of the show.

I've been in the chorus section before and was looking over Guy Fletcher's shoulder all night. It wasn't as bad as I thought and Mark did turn round more than I expected so I did see the front of him but I wouldn't expect to witness the light show. You do get a unique view of the concert from the musicians point of view though and this unique view may extend to the light show. Hope you enjoy your show.

Enjoy lucky people ;D

Apparently the cd has leaked but I can´t find it... I guess tonight at 00.00 it should be available anyway...

Some more things
He plays 70% of the new album... 7 songs out of 10.. and always... in any concert.. there are no songs that suddenly disappear without reason... (last tour in 2006 it was 100% ....)
and there's no 'we have to take a flight before midnight' crap... he plays about 2.30h-2.35h net + 20 minutes break so about 3 hours gross until midnight from 9pm..
MK takes a 10-15 min break too; it's called Marbletown.

Short answer: I got blown away. Serious competition for Mark ;) a great mix of old and new. Very pleasantly surprised by the new album, quite rocking and maybe more Floydish than the endless river... Great light show, even if I was slightlly disappointed that the big circle was not used to project images like in 1994.
A great time with ds1984 and his friends...I wanted to see both Roger and Dave in my life, now I have seen Roger in 2011 and Dave in 2015, I am at peace :) only regret is the lack of Echoes, David wouldn't do it without Rick, which I respect... I was stupid enough to miss the great 2006 tour ! But as a consolation, we've got a more energetic SOYCD than in 2006 ! :)

And there will be more EU shows in 2016!!!

So pumped for this show. Managed to get 1 set of tickets to see him here in canada. Not many shows listed for north america, especially canada.

My first David Gilmour show :D Can't wait!! I like to hear the Pink Floyd songs ;D

Personally I won't buy his cd. Really p**** off by the short tour which gives you no second chance if you're not available or missed the sale. >:(
-
A friend of mine went to see him in Pula. He is probably still sitting there crying with joy :lol
I immediately liked the song "Rattle That Lock" and the video is great too, just like Making Movies videos. ;D How is the live version? I haven't found it on youtube.

Pottel and me are ready! 10 minutes left!

Understand how you feel... I had to pay a bomb to go to Orange...:/
Mark does 2hours*100 every 2 years
David does 2h40*10 every 10 years...

and those 2:40 hrs were so effing amazing.
only one (new) song i really did not like, "Today" and one song i will call my Gilmour romeo and juliet, and which i used to go to the loo
listening to my recording now. far better then expected. the man was friggin LOUD!!
but, most of all, he played guitar, guitar and more guitar....
brilliant player.
-
Which one is your R&J ?
-
I'm not attending a Gilmour show, but YT clips and the setlist are stunning! I only had expected him to play Louder Than Words, from The Endless River.. :think would have made a beautiful addition to the set I think.

Just wow! It was amazing!

Short revue
First, it was great to see and spend some time with Herlock :wave
The venue is not an antic arena such as Nimes but an antic Theatre so it was designed for music and was sonically great.
The show itself was better than I expected, Gilmour is ageing quite well.
Great surprise to see some classics PF tunes back in the set.

Indeed great to meet up with you, ds1984, and mind-blowing concert !
Anybody is up for the RAH shows ?

I can't see clearly as he is too far, but does anyone remember if he played shine on with the black strat instead of the red one ?
if it's the case it would be the 1st time since 77, and it could be an ingredient of the "more energetic" version quoted by Herlock

I don't understand. the big circle has got images in the video :hmm

This video is not from Orange but from other places. In Orange I read that the video projector was too heavy for the set-up, hence no video :/

also, david has been confirmed for a cologne Show, in front of the dome next to the trainstation for 07.07.2016!!!

SOYCD has improved compared to 2006.
And same as for Herlock regarding Sorrows, I usually was not that fond of it but the Orange performance was really really great.
Run Like Hell was really something with all band members wearing glasses.
-

strange because all songs except Breathe are locked with a french message, somewhat like "this video contains Pink Floyd material, so they blocked it due to right issues"

you know that i am the freak crazy about song length :) SOYCD is a bit like TR, more energetic but shorter ! 9.45 min in 2015 vs 12 min in 2006 ! Yet it seems the same parts are played: 1,2,4,5 ?? What is missing ??
-
Yes i do. RTN and Gdansk are among my top favorites concerts of all times, 2006 was a great year

Not quite official I think but:

Youtube clip taken from the Chorus section. Opposite side from where I sat but pretty similar view. When I was there there were a lot of empty seats and the usher said I could choose any seat once the show started!

I was at the RAH on 26th and the Chorus section wasn't occupied. This clip was probably taken from the stalls nearest to the stage.

Yes thanks ! The show of my life, as i missed 94 and 2006...sounds great !
Now looking forward to Roger's show next year..
I'm angry with David, as much as i love him, for not pushing the reconciliation to the exgent of reuniting PF... We can bitch all day about Roger being an asshole, but this asshole was able to admit he was wrong, to truly forgive and display good will of reforming.. David just agreed to play together once in a while... Too bad. We need both the soul and the sound !
-
no rick, no floyd herlock.
-
Hmmm. Psychologically it might be the case (as with Bonham) but if we have to put honesty above all, in the latter PF days, Rick was just a paid musician, at his own admittance. Truth is that what we have in our minds is a distilled and compact history of the relation and explorations of four men for nearly 20 years (and 50 years of their life), in a few hours of carefully constructed studio recordings. Come to think of it, isn't it weird that PF never issued an official real live album since 1983?
-
imho ricks organ and piano work was crucial to any part in floyd history, just as is Dave'S guitar and musicianship, Nicks' drumming and Rogers Bass&lyrics...
-
no rick, no floyd herlock.
True Pottel, we do agree on this, I also think Rick's contributions were great and understated. Hence no Echoes this year, I stupidely missed it in 2006 :/
My anger still stands for the years 2005-2008 though, can you imagine if David's On a Island tour and Roge's DSOTM tour had been merged into one single Floyd reunion tour ?
-

Both Dave and Roger are not keen on meeting themselves halfway.
Moreover Dave seem to really have turned the PF brand down now like Mark has done with DS for the same result : they still play some old material and this is the stuff that got the biggest answer from the public.

Roger has expressed several times that he would'nt mind restoring Floyd.
Yes Dave has turned the PF brand down, like Mark with DS, btut unlike DS, Dave's current band is very similar to what PF used to be under his leadership in 94. Makes me wonder why turning down the brand... especially from somebody who faught so hard to keep it in 87 ! Anyway...

I thought you were talking about dvd :(
The RAH recordings are surfacing in audio!
-
When asked about it, Roger Waters says he left PF in 1985, and that´s all.
David says that without Rick there is not PF.
So, it looks very clear.
I´m not sure if David and Roger would do a tour together as themselfs, they are on speaking terms right now, and they had played together but, a tour maybe would be too much.

Between 2005 (Live 8) and 2008 (Rick's death) there was still hope. I'm talking about this:
http://www.theguardian.com/music/2010/may/04/pink-floyd-reunion-thwarted
And especially this sentence: "David is completely uninterested," Waters told the Associated Press. "After [Pink Floyd's reunion at] Live 8, I could have probably gone for doing some more stuff, but he's not interested."
Roger would have done it. David did not want to. Rick's death made everybody agree: Without Rick it is pointless.
Sometimes you should not wait...
The so-called egomaniac Roger was ready to put everything behind. He has his temper but I believe he is humanly a great guy, very true and honest, and he got better with age.
Anyway, I'm not starting the Rog vs. Dave debate again, I love them both, they are both great persons and great artists in very different ways - the combination of their skills was Pink Floyd...
-
Dave probably remembers how much he had had to fight against Roger to defend his musical ideas inside Pink Floyd for not wanting to throw himself back in into that position. Now he's THE boss.
-
I think a great opportunity was missed with the endless river.
Imagine if David had the humility to call Roger in for a concept and lyrics.
Instead of a nice instrumental album, we would have had a masterpiece, another wywh, not about Syd but about Rick - and featuring his music post mortem. All four of them, as pink Floyd reunited, as an homage to Rick.
Oh well...

That songs were recorded during the Division Bell sessions, if they wanted to be trustful to that spirit, Roger can't fit there as he is known for taken control and re-shape everything to his own vision.

I think even David acknowledged that it was a bit more complex than that. Roger filled a vaccum - David had not written a song in 5 years during the final cut sessions. David should have come with an alternative concept if he did not want to take Roger's... David really struggled to find concept and lyrics for AMLOR and even DB. He is a master guitarist, a great melody composer, a wonderful singer, but no concept creator nor lyricist . Roger is exactly the opposite: an average bass player, a decent composer, a pretty bad singer - but a great concept maker and lyricist. That's why they were so great together.
-
I got the album last week and while I didn't find it all that great first time around I've kept coming back to it several times over the past week and I've really come to like it (I keep coming back to Faces of Stone, for instance), even though I still feel it's not really "complete". Certain tracks feel very out of place; some in regards to track-position (Rattle That Lock feels wrong after 5 A.M. Swap around or add an additional track in between to bridge them) and some I don't think should be on there at all (The Girl in the Yellow Dress -it's an okay track, but it doesn't fit in with the rest).
I caught a familiarity in "Today" which led my thoughts to Another Brick in the Wall pt. 2 with a couple of chords repeating over and over in the background. Musically In Any Tongue made me think of Reaching For the Rail from Rick Wright's Broken China. They're not very similar, but it still made me make the connection.
I wish I could've attended any of the concerts around Europe, but alas... Perhaps some day... Although not very likely...

What is really incredible is David's voice. he is basically 70 and his voice is almost perfect, incredible.
I can't judge myself because I didn't attend any gig and I did'nt see any YT videos , but Bjon is rather more critical about David's voice :

http://www.gilmourish.com/?p=6953 (http://www.gilmourish.com/?p=6953)
''He’s still got the voice and does most of the songs very well. However, there are lots of moments when I cringe and hope he’ll be able to last through the show.''
I never got the impression that he coudln't be able to finish the song or the concert, never, at 70 I don't think it's possible to sing better than how he did
all the concerts are available at yeeshkul, you can judge yourself
what struck me on Bjorn's review are sentences like :
"his voice doesn’t quite hold up, especially on the higher notes, and there are also moments where he’s way out of pitch, which is something I’ve never heard from him before. "
or
"His singing was a bit off all three nights. He clearly struggled on the chorus sections and was out of pitch at times. "
-
I never considered David being a strong singer and Pink Floyd vocalists were not great in that department, especially live (often out pitch).
I don't hear much difference in 2015 compared to 2006 otherwise that he's ten years older and you can't avoid some degradation.
From the trio MK-EC-DG, the later is the one that is ageing best, but I still stand that the first 2015 EC show I attended remains by far my favourite concert this year (and certainly was the one I feared the most).
-

maybe you are right live, but in studio I find David a great singer.
He can sing classic pop (echoes, us and them...) etheral voices (breathe, fat old sun, green is the color...) heavy rock (the nile song, young lust...) soul-rock (money, time...)
he is singing great harmonies on songs like Breathe, Shine on...

I finally had the chance to listen to the album. The first time, I didn't quite get it and didn't even finish it. But after a few listens...what do you know it's grown on me and now I like it. It's quite a beautiful album to listen to from beginning to end. A part of me does wonder, however, if I would feel the same way if it didn't have Gilmour's distinctive guitar sound and some of the old PF trademarks peppered all over it.
-
This is exactly the point I stand on. On studio you can add effect on the voice to make it sound better. David is average, he's not Rod nor Robert nor Ian nor Wilson. You don't go to concert just to hear David sing. Just listen to RTN, from the moment he's joined by Crosby and Nash you can hear the difference.

If David's voice is average, what is Mark's ? horrible ?

Just back from my David Gilmour show in the chorus at the RAH.
The show was great, even the sound during the first and second show was horrible, I didn´t heard anything during "Rattle That Lock" except noise, reverb, echo... but it was fixed and during the rest of the show the sound wasn´t good, but it was listenable.
I had a nice view of the stage and all the musicians, the only one I always had him back was Manzanera, I didnt see his face, but I saw the others faces quite a lot.
I had views of the back of the circle from the chorus, so I didnt see any projection and only the lights the circle projected to the audience and the stage, so that part of the show was missed for me.
David played great excep some mistakes here and there and he sung quite well, considering that the sound where I was wasn´t good enough to say he sung perfectly or badly.
Quite an experience.
When I was at the loo after the show, my friend saw Jeff Beck

Thanks for your report.
What do you think about DG's new album?
Did he vary his set during the RAH residency?

I like his new album, in general I think that On An Island is far better album, but this one has trult gems like Faces Of Stone, The Boat Lies Waiting and In Any Tongue...
He only made a variation in his RAH residence, one night he added Coming Back To Life, just one night.

Thanks!

my favourite pieces of instudio videos EVER! how it all comes together, fantastic...

I like both albums, but I also prefer the new one, more rocking, even though a track like "castellorizon" from On a Island was outstanding.
The only thing that bothers me with the new record is the title track. As a french I cannot stand this stupid SNCF (railways national company) jingle to announce stupidities... No quite sure what David was thinking, it's as if Mozart had wanted to build an symphony from disco music... anyway, the song itself is ok, but would be far better without the jingle !

I guess that for not French people, it works quite well with the song. I actually like it and I would find it rare the other way around, if I end in the future in a French train station and I listen it without the Gilmour song ;D

I like it. I find it suits to the song (tempo, key, travel theme...), and I find it's an original idea.
of course it has a strong connation for us frenchies, and when I am in a train station, I always wait for the Gimour tune to start....

As a french I thank theSNCF to keep us informed eventhrough a "stupid" jingle.

It took me quite a long time, but in the end, I have uploaded my pictures of David Gilmour at the Royal Albert Hall, last night.
Made from the choir section, so don´t expect to see the circle here:

Argh again I did not know and it's already full / obscene prices for luxury 12 person lodge :(
-
I would never go with tickets over 40-50 Euros. And that is stretching it. It means 2-3 days of work, if I can get a job. Why not play bigger venues or more concerts? Roger Waters did it and despite the second time around in Athens, of "The Wall" the stadium was 1/3 full only, he didn't cancel. I know Pink Floyd fans are countless and everybody wants a ticket, but pricing desire so high ruins it for me. In the end only a few that can afford it, get to see their favorite musicians.
-
Strange feeling because I am unhappy to have missed it but I would have probably not done the travel anyway.
Actually this my little frustration of downsizing my concert goer capability.
But I was in Vienne in 2006 and that one will probably remain in my top 5 "all time favourite attended show".

Lucky you.. Would have loved to attend this amazing 2006 tour ! Glad that Orange 2015 was good too even ifna bit less.

Cannot believe that this gentleman and guitar god has been turning 70. Here's to many years to come! All the best! :wave
-
amazing indeed. especially after seeing him blow all of us away onstage last year september in Oberhausen, Germany.
-
Hum, his solo stuff mostly sounded weak compared to the PF material.
Eventually I do prefer the 2006 format because once the solo stuff performed (and OAI was better than the RTL album) well the rest of the show was nothing but fan-tas-tic.
-
nope
do not agree
i feared a 2006 weak fort halve, and was nothing but amazed. well mixed, well balanced choice of songs (even though i did miss echoes..)
his new album is FAR better then OAI

not spending 300 bucks for the pompei concert Pensa?? ;)
The friend of mine who will come to the RAH with me bought a Pompei ticket and it's almost 400 euros including presale fees and shipping...
the main problem for me is that the 2 Pompei dates are too close to the 2 Verona shows and far away geographically, I am afraid of getting too tired
is yur friend a taper?

I'm just back from 2 shows from Nîmes and one from Arc-Senans, wonferful locations, and i'm just speechless. As i told my wife, we are leaving the last years of these sacred monsters before it's over, and all we'll be left with will be Justin Bieber and the likes... David might have not been perfect every song of every night, but who cares, the shows were freaking fantastic. My first time hearing One of These Days and The great gig in the sky... Comfortably Numb was out of this world... Serious competition for Mark ! Now I can't wait for Roger Waters 2017... And Mark of course...:)
-
Yes david and mark are the numbers 1 of guitar
I don't like Roger Waters shows because it's basically like listening to a cover band. Yes Roger is indeed there and singing and his voice is magic but the players around him cannot make it up that is all the guitarists he has
alltogether cannot make up 10% of Gilmour imo.
I saw Roger in 2013 playing the Wall, and what I missed was strangely enough Gilmour's voice, (2-3 others tried to make it happened but it didn't work for me) NOT his guitar playing. (Well, a tiny bit on Comfortably numb, but the show made up for it). My point of view is that he chooses better than in previous times and he doesn't sound like a cover band, at least not anymore.

Gilmour's playing is indeed unique, just like his voice. Very hard to imitate. This being said, it does not mean than other guitarists are bad - just different ! Talking about cover band for Roger is unfair, IHMO. If you watch the "In the flesh" DVD, I think Doyle, Andy Fairwhether-Low and Snowy White are superb guitarists, and they bring a different take. I like Andy's soloing on "Money", SOYCD part VI with John Carin on lapsteel has great energy, like nothing before, with Snowy's solo being great... Chester Kemen and David K. are excellent guitarists too ! I loved the Wall live.
The problem Roger has, is, while he made most of the contributions to the albums concepts and lyrics, he is not needed to reproduce PF sound, as David is. David can reproduce the PF sound with him alone and sessions musicians. Roger's bass playing is ordinary, nothing that Guy Pratt could'nt do, and his voice is... ouch. Ok, pretty unique, but sounds so old ! People like SOYCD with Gilmour's voice only better than on the album actually...

Seeing David tomorrow in Tienen (Belgium) with Ingridswing and Pottel ;D
-
it was sooooo fantastic.
MARK USE A FRIGGIN SCREEN!
it was amazing how this added to the experience.
MARK PLAY FRIGGIN GUITAR AGAIN, INSTEAD OF CAMPFIRE SONGS
already many recordings out ther,e and i will add mine soon.
was cool to see how he said, at 11:45 (!!) and in about, oh, 15 minutes time, my beautiful wife and i will celebrate our (22th) honeymoon....
the rain in the light of the lasershow also added to the magic.
fantastic!

Mark ??!! Was here choosing Belgium for a historical duet with David ??! And I missed that ! ;)

The shows in Rome were freaking fantastic
There was a lot of confusion in the audience the first night during Sorrow because penalties were been played between Italy and Germany... because the song was Sorrow I already knew how it was gonna end...
David even thanked the audience in the first half break for coming even if Italy was playing that night
Regarding the coming shows in Verona this weekend I have received an official comunication that the first show Sunday 10 July has been delayed by 1 hour and now starting at 10pm, not 9pm, who knows why, quite strange to delay in advance

i believe he always used to do so because of the sunlight ...they need semi darkness for the movies on mr.bigscreen...

amazing drone footage from the pompeii concert popped up on you8tube, and was quickly removed
attached the soundcheck footage:
https://yadi.sk/i/kFWF437iuqvuC
be aware, there is no sound, but some amazing images.
and then the crew notices the drone and starts shining with one, later up to three light spots to the drone so it cannot continue.
for the fans, there is also a link to the whole show, but again, no sound, just amazing drone footage...

But it's a matter of taste of course.

for doing what ? He just sang and went away immediately
Something that made the media over here a wee while ago. Nothing to do with his appearance at your concert.
