TOPIC: Just got back from seeing Roger in Oakland, and I got to meet him!!!

Just got back from seeing Roger in Oakland, and I got to meet him!!! 4 years, 11 months ago #1

First off....What a great concert in Oakland tonight....much better then when I saw him in october at the shoreline!

I was in the 8th row which i thought was perfect, not to close where i couldnt see the stage but not to far where i couldnt see him or the band. Roger was animated tonight which i liked.

There was a guy dressed up in lightbulbs like the "DSOT" album....During "Flesh" Roger pointed at him and said "theres one in the spotlight he dont look right to me...." and the crowd got a good laugh.....

ok so I met Roger at about 515 when he got their for soundcheck, there was about 15 of us out there......he came out of the van and started signing various items....he signed my ticket which was nice, and I asked him if him and Gilmour are done working on the 40th anniversary edition of Piper and he smiled and said yes....One man asked him to shake his hand but Roger said no because he was afraid of germs and everybody started laughing....

Also, a radio guy for one of the stations asked him to sign 3 PULSE dvds, and Roger said no, it had nothing to do with him and we all started laughing again, and Roger got a big grin out of us laughing....really great show....I wish I could go again....

His voice sounded good, but I do think he had some pre tape vocal help which is fine....thats why he needs David back

So how many people on this forum have now met a member of Pink Floyd?

I can name three now without thinking.

I said Hello to them as they walked passed me. It was when I was 14,so it doesnt really count as a meeting but its my only memory.
                  The place was  Mothers (club) on Erdington High Street.

Well that's sort of half a meeting I'd say.

So 3.5 now.

Does meeting the Australian Pink Floyd count?
