honestly a lot of those guys probably turn up their nose at guitar center's off-the-rack mass produced stuff, you need that boutique, hand-wired shit and 70s les pauls and strats

Gilmour plays slowly though, something I have never heard anyone in a guitar center attempt to do

The archetypal guitar center sound is distortion not cranked loud enough so that you can hear the awful acoustic slapping sound of the electric guitar strings with a very thin layer of noise on top.

Gilmour's tone is like a fallen angel sobbing and singing at the same time.

this is kind of like going into guitar center and then looking over to see who is nailing that sick Gilmour tone and holy shit it's Gilmour

"Gilmour dude...the only way I can describe Gilmour is - you know the song Dogs?"
"Fuck yeah"
"...yeah I'd imagine"
"Listen to the solo on Dogs and times it by 10 or 20 - and turn up the volume by like 50, and that's KIND of what I'm talking about"

went to laser floyd last winter, took my daughter, was fun... much more wholesale vibe though. I might have listen posted pictures upthread

I hung out before the show in Central Park with a pretty wholesome crowd when I went back in the day.

Don’t think so, but he was a very big fan of both SCTV and The Uncle Floyd Show.

I wasted a ton of time on this site during 7th grade lunch hours, anyone else?
The record that kickstarted my Floyd obsession around that time was actually a bootleg- sorry, RoIO- a cassette dub of this that I bought for $2 off a street bookseller.
Really miss that tape and wish I still had it! Even tho the tracklist is super weird and I have everything on it in way better quality.

Spent a huge amount of time on the RoIo database during the early internet age. Amazing to think we have Yeeshkull and deep threads dedicated to chasing down the genealogy of the known recordings, like people building their family trees but in reverse.

Apart from drugs, alcohol, and general exuberance, I can almost kinda see why the crowds were generally rowdy and unsettled on this tour, the whole stage presentation is weirdly menacing and unfriendly.
