TOPIC: Vegas

Vegas 2 years, 8 months ago #1

Ok guys, I'm not going to get into a drawn out review because I can't say what hasn't already been said before.  I didn't think it was possible to top last year's performance but this time I'm at a lost for words.  Freckin amazing is the only thing that comes to mind right now.  The new Joint and their sound system were the perfect match for these guys.  Setlist pretty much the same but no One Slip.  Show started at exaxctly 8:01 and until 10:45 3,000 fans were taken  back.  Lots of 1st timers in attendence which as I can tell were blown away.  Skippy made a brief appearance during Days.  The girls were right on as well.  Can't wait till next year.  I can't stress enough to anyone thinking about seeing this show......don't miss it.  ;D

I LOVED the show and I really liked the new venue.  I was pleasantly surprised to see the turnout.  I was under the false impression that they just renovated the old Joint so I was thinking the seating capacity would be about the same.  Much to my surprise the new Joint is on the other side of the casino and at least twice as big!!  Unfortunately, my only experience with live Floyd in my life was Roger's tour a couple years ago and the two shows I've now seen with this band.

Highlights for me included seeing Welcome to the Machine, Pigs, Astronomy Donime and a few others performed live for the first time.  I keep forgetting how freakin' powerful some of these songs can be when experienced live.....7 rows from the stage!!  I really liked how they incorporated the old video footage during WYWH.

If I had to pick only one highlight from the entire night, I don't think I'd go with the Comfortably Numb solo at the end (even though it was awesome), I think I'd pick the solo and ending sequence of Pigs!!!  Truly powerful!

Since I've only seen the band once before during last year's tour, this was my first experience with their big pink friend.  My girlfriend thought he was outrageous.
