TOPIC: Newcastle

Newcastle 5 years, 1 month ago #1

Hi Guys

Just to let you know I've got front row seats for the Newcastle concert tomorrow and I'll be posting a few then (or sometime on Saturday). For someone who is so young (relatively speaking of course!), I'm a huge Floyd fan and I just can't wait.

Is there any chance of getting High Hopes or Keep Talking at the gig? Judging from their recent set lists no but I really hope they do! Never been to a real (too young) Floyd gig or an Aussie Floyd gig. Going to see Waters in London in May so should make interesting comparison.

Hello seb and welcome. You are never too young to be into Floyd, or too old in my case. Have a great time at Newcastle and we look forward to your review. You have a good chance of hearing Keep Talking because it has been played at a few gigs already.
Are we nearly there yet?

Actually I'd say there is a chance of getting Keep Talking at these gigs... I know of at least one 2007 gig during which they played that song. 
Ashes and diamonds, foe and friend...we were all equal in the end.

Hiya Seb and welcome !

I'm very very tired but this are my inital thoughts
  • Managed to get loads of good photos and videos. Will upload them to my site tomorrow afternoon
  • Didn't get Keep Talking
  • Comfortably Numb, Ruin Like Hell, Nobody Home - Wow!!!
  • The people were.....interesting - I got beer split on me four times. One guy was asked to leave four times. It was a mixture of core-Floyd fans like me and people just having a piss up. Laughing and farting during Us and Them/The Gunners Dream was quite awful. Is this always the case or was it just Newcastle?
  • The band are immense  - I was surprised at how they all do vocals and there is no set role
  • They are all called Bruce and Shelia 
  • Got DSOTM-Aussie T-Shirt
  • Got the Pig (during Pigs) and Kanagroo (during One Of These Days)
  • Just damn well loved it! It was wonderful to hear the songs and I think TAPFS are amazing. I think seeing them somewhere more intermite might have been better - e.g. City Hall


More tomorrow.
