PINK FLOYD

Drove around today and listened to DSOTM through Animals on a grey, overcast day with no rain. I'd like to posit that those are the ideal atmospheric conditions.

So how did they do the guitar harmonies on Dogs live?

Snowy White played on the tour - guitar (and occasional bass).

Cool so I guess that’s him on the backing parts of Shine On too

what a drag they didn't play wish you were here on the wish you were here tour lol

If that's a reference to the Denver show, the album wouldn't be released for another five months.

maybe both Gigolo Aunt and Hi Ho Silver Lining were inspired by Happy Together by the Turtles.

I doubt it, he already based 'Dominoes' on 'Happy Together'

Good 2020 interview with Snowy White:

and a Yeeshkul thread on who played what on the 1977 tour

"as fast as Gilmour can go) he will never do that after, and some soaring solos (remember the July 2, 1977 Madison Square Garden)"
welp there's my next download

Details starting to emerge of the rumoured 50th anniversary Dark Side box set:

It will, of course, rule

15 November 1974 at Empire Pool, London: After 37:51 of unfamiliar songs (SOYCD, Raving And Drooling) someone hollers "1967!" Roger retorts "You're wrong, it's 1974... and this is another new tune, especially for you!" (17min "You Gotta Be Crazy" starts)

More Dark Side box news:

that looks absolutely worthless

pretty sad fate for an album that rules so much

hmm yeah, it's not even the complete Wembley show? Because a double (triple?) LP of that gig would rule.

Let the 2000 people in the world with a home atmos setup buy it, as much as it rules, I ain't paying for this fucking record again.

you're saying your living room doesn't look like this?!

just imagine the neighbors in that apartment building — "is he really listening to the atmos remix of dark side of the moon *again*????"

I have observations about that photo, but I'll save them for the hoffman board.

Happy that the live show is getting a standalone list, that's all I want.

(although I really wish it was actually the full show)

two subs is completely stupid and unnecessary

reminds me of one of my favorite amazon reviews:

two subs is completely stupid and unnecessary

Not completely true. A single subwoofer helps with bass extension (i.e. going lower) but doesn't help with bass' weird room interactions in most real world (i.e. avg living room) settings. One solution is multiple subs (distributed bass array) which doesn't make the bass go any lower, but helps greatly with room interactions in untreated rooms by basically beaming bass semi-randomly everywhere in the room and hopefully filling in the gaps.

NB: I have no subs because of space.

Oh my god

See you on the dark side.

I saw that yesterday, just amazing rotting brain syndrome everywhere.

graphic design has really taken a nose dive since 72 huh

Tell me you're repressed without telling me you're repressed.

You re-pressed Saucerful of Secrets without telling me?!

wonder if that's Michael Donovan of Dewsbury

Looks like the feud between Waters and I guess Gilmour just got a whole lot worse. Not sure why Gilmour's wife Polly Samson tweeted that out to Waters (truth be told, I didn't realize she was married to Gilmour until 10 minutes ago), but maybe someone here does?

yeah I wasn't sure what she was responding to, unless it was his previous tweet that Israel was smearing him. No doubt Waters has gotten beyond the pale; I don't like the government of Israel either, but the dude is so in the bag for putin he can't be trusted on anything. Her slamming him for lip synching was pretty funny. Gilmoure retweeted her with his support on the statement.

It's a bit weird that these 80 year olds are bothering to even snipe at each other at this point.

I read something about them having a Ukrainian daughter in law? That may explain some of it. Regardless, Roger is such a notorious crank and asshole that it's not that hard to find reasons why someone would dislike him. Here's one more reason I just learned of: he's reportedly re-recording "Dark Side of the Moon": "The new concept is meant to reflect on the meaning of the work, to bring out the heart and soul of the album... musically and spiritually. I’m the only one singing my songs on these new recordings, and there are no rock and roll guitar solos."

What a dick.

thank god someone is finally taking those sick guitar solos out of Dark Side

tbf, it's gotta be better than that "Great Dance Song" version of "Money".

All solos will be on kazoos.

It won't RULE.

It would rule if Pink Floyd did that though

i think the flaming lips already did it?

rog & dave endlessly feuding def does not rule … besides feuding via yr wives gets you into super lame queensryche territory which, cmon

taking the guitar solos out of dark side rmde“mm yes i love this new bread-only quarter pounder i really hate all the everything that makes it taste good”
can’t we get him to like, idk, volunteer to go to the actual moon & stay there

Belgorod will do just fine.

(I was being extra cranky with him this past fall going around and seeing posters for his appearance at Chase Center. Why the hell is he still pulling that big a crowd.)

Rog solo Dark Side in 2023 is gonna sound like The Final Cut sung by Ian McKellan & brickwalled. Can’t wait.

I suppose I have been blessed to go through life without such a grudge, but good lord people Waters has been carrying this axe Eugene for now over 30+ years.

I guess since Crosby is dead, Roger just wants the world to know he is ‘the’ most jaded of rich old yet living rock stars. F’n lame.

All solos will be on kazoos.

Balalaikas.

The best music performance i ever witnessed on the subway was an entire classroom of kids and their teacher doing Sgt. Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band > With A Little Help From My Friends on kazoos. It ruled, of course.

Most jaded of rich old yet living rock stars, riding the subway.

(scowling at Macca in first class)

Of course they were getting along, relatively speaking, only ‘recently’

lol @ calstars, josh

lol when Aaron Mate jumps in...

What’s demonstrable here is your bitter jealousy of Roger’s packed arena tours and political courage.
