Glad you got better shots than I did, and it looks like you had a better seat then I did as well..


Glad you had fun.

And the truth is, my phone camera makes it look farther away than it was.

 

We were right in the thick of things. It was great.

 

Thanks.

Just saw it last night in San Diego. It. Was. Awesome! While It did lack a certain soul that Gilmore brings, it was well worth the price and quite the spectacle. The projection and sound quality was great. If you get a chance, go. Like Broadway on steroids but with good music. tongue.gif Edited by hunter

Broadway on Steroids?

It is definitely an event, more than a concert. Spectacle, maybe?

 

The technology is amazing, and the sound is like nothing I've ever heard. I am not exaggerating when I say there was not one iota of distortion or feedback during the whole show. The sound system, whatever they are using, is perfect.

 

Glad you had a good time!

That's very cool.

 

It would have been great to be there that night.

Let's hope for some sort of official video release of this show!

Yes, there had better be a blu-ray coming down the line somewhere.

If so, I hope it's the night in London with Dave and Nick.

 

In the meantime, there is a boot of EPIC quality out there called "iShoot iEdit" shot in Chicago last year. Most of the footage was shot by a guy that goes by Tapehead2 and like I said, the quality in terms of both video and audio is amazing. If you didn't know it was a boot, you'd think it was a pro-shot commercial release. It is available for download at The Trader's Den (bit torrent) with 10 seeders at present here : http://www.thetradersden.org/forums/showthread.php?t=87327 (must be a member and logged in to see the thread). Also likely it's up on Youtube somewhere as well. Search The Wall Chicago 2010 and I'm guessing you'll find it.

 

2 nights 'til the show here in Portland. Woo hoo!!

 

Did anyone go see it at the Coliseum in L.A. last night? If so, how about a report back?

Have a great time! Those should be perfect seats. This is not a stadium show, right?

That's correct. It was at The Rose Garden (home of the NBA Portland Trailblazers, roughly 20,000 capacity).

 

Yes, my seat was near perfection. Only one time was it not and that was when I couldn't see the lead vocalist through the holes in the wall as it was being built (towards the end of the first set). I was floor left and during "Nobody Home" when Roger is in the motel room set, it was basically right in front of me which was very cool. I won't say too much as to not spoil it for anyone that may still be waiting to attend and doesn't know how the show progresses. Suffice to say as mentioned by several people, it is a visual spectacle of incredible proportions and sonically is near perfection.

 

Agree with hunter's assesment above that Rog needs Dave to make it complete, even if he would never admit it. But then I'm a Gilmour guy so........ Also agree with mazyyz that tickets are bit too expensive. I think $200 with service fees would've been sufficient (it was $224 with fees). But I am VERY glad I went and VERY happy with where my seat was.

 

A shout out to Portland/Vancouver (Washington)/ Salem et.al. for filling the place. If it wasn't capacity, it was like 98% full.

The best concert I've ever seen.

 

I've got a few decent pictures earlier in this thread from the second time I saw it. I would see it again tonight if I could.

 

Simply the best production of a show you can imagine.

 

Go and have a great time!
