A great show yesterday!
We were seated at row 14 center stage. A wonderful view of the stage and I must admit the lightshow from that point of view grabs you more than from the balcony (where I was seated in Katowice).

Highlights of the show were:
- Great Gig: again Ola did all three parts and it sounded magnificent
- Pigs: this song is so dark, and it sounds better than the original
- Fletcher: I really love the animation on this one. And the guitar solo.. wow!
- C-Numb: the moment during the second solo when the whole stage is covered in smoke and Damian is the only one you see only lit by a yellow spotlight is awesome. Too bad, that the glitter ball comes down and ruins the moment for me.. I really loved the effect they used in Katowice and I hoped they had written off this ball.

Just another remark: I really think that Breathe and WYWH were too fast. The tempo is too high, with Breathe I think it has something to do with a click track. But with WYWH Steve and Damian were too fast I guess. I never heard it before so I think it’s a mistake.

They played a great version of Set The Controls. But I'd rather see Colin sing this one. There is nothing wrong with Ian's voice, but Colin's is more suitable (like the RAH DVD).

So, another great show by the Aussies. I hope to see them again this summer during one of the festivals.

Hi there,
I'm new to this forum and I've never been to a TAPFS show untill yesterday. I did see some video and heard about them for a while and finally got a chance to see them yesterday.
And I gotta say, they rock! Great band, sound and show.
Love the pig ofcourse and lasers, hurray! I hope they come back soon.
I've been PF fan for nearly 20 years and have been lucky enough to see them live in 1994. And Roger solo some years ago. And TAPFS is a good addition to the live experience of Pink Floyd music.

I was in the middle on the first row, so had the best view in the house
I was able to video about 8 songs.
I've already uploaded one on u tube. See link below.
For all people that are still going in the coming shows, enjoy!
