I love seeing people's amazement when they listen to Floyd songs for the first time and the good thing is it gets better every time you hear it :-) :-) :-) :-)
Ngl, I'm 29 years old now. Never ever hears a song from pink floyd in my life, but after I heard this song, this performance, I literally bought myself an electric guitar. I've never played any instrument in my life before. But it was David Gilmour, that made me buy a guitar 😅
I saw them 3 times in 94. Pittsburgh and Toronto 2 times. I’ve liked them since 1970. I love watching you young folks reactions to Pink Floyd. Warms my heart. They actually got their name from 2 black musicians they enjoyed. The last name of one was Pink and the first name of the other was Floyd. Thus Pink Floyd.
Cuddly Uncle Dave - destroying minds and stealing souls since 1968. The man is unearthly with a guitar in his hands and a damn fine human being in all respects. I was privileged to be there the night they recorded this and I've never been quite the same. What you don't get from the video is how loud it was. Every note from David's guitar reverberated through your body, Nicks drums pounded through your bones, Rick's keyboards shimmered across your soul and the lights were blinding. It was like being suspended in space, held up by the music. I've said this before, but when we left, the crowd was almost completely silent. What we'd just witnessed was so overwhelming that you couldn't think or speak. Lots of people were in tears, including me. Everyone was just stunned, standing around with a "WTF just happened?" look in their eyes. Nobody has come close to what the Floyd achieved on that tour and I honestly don't think anyone ever will. It was a truly religious experience.
Yours is the best concert experience review that I’ve ever read. EVER. My most remembered concert experience was seeing Jimi Hendrix at the Sam Houston Coliseum in Houston in 1968. I was just a young punk then, but we ended up with pretty good seats on the floor (I don’t remember how). I’ll always remember Jimi running onto the stage wearing a black bodysuit which had silver sequins running up and down his arm sleeves and pants legs, and a white headband. We punks could only stare in awe at the epitome of cool standing before our very eyes. Of course, Jimi just tore down the stage. It was only the 2nd concert I’d ever been to.
I saw this tour in Indianapolis. We were in the fourth row and it was the most intense experience of my life. You're correct that the music and lights had a physical impact that I've never experience before or since.
@@jareczek1980 No, I did not. I saw both the Momentary lapse of Reason tour (Los Angeles in '87) and the Division Bell tour ( Indianapolis in '94). In LA our seats were terrible and the frat boys sitting behind us whooped and whistled loudly the entire show. Not a good time. For the Indy show we had great seats, the sound was amazing and the crowd was into it.
It does my heart good to see a young man enjoy my generations music. Because one doesn't merely listen to Pink Floyd. One EXPERIENCES Pink Floyd. Welcome aboard.
One of the best ways I’ve heard it said was: Leo Fender gave the world the Stratocaster, David Gilmour gave it a soul. These two solos are some of the best pieces of rock music ever played.
David Gilmour is my favorite guitarist. He plays with so much intensity and soul. I saw him in concert as a solo act in 2016. He was 70 years old at the time and still sounded amazing. He played a lot of Pink Floyd classics such as this song, and some music from his solo albums, as well. If you want to get more awesome Gilmour guitar solos, I suggest checking out 'Sorrow' from the Pulse concert, as well as the live version of 'On the Turning Away' from the Delicate Sound of Thunder tour. Both feature epic solos.
I saw PF 3 times in the late 70's and early 80's and there show was the most amazing spectacle i have ever experienced at a concert and I've been to at least 100.
Pink Floyd live is a true audio-visual experience. I can only imagine you at a Pink Floyd concert with your eyes closed…or maybe with your eyes open but with earplugs to block out the sound. Seriously, please WATCH and listen to this again to appreciate this outstanding live performance.
Thank you so much for reacting to this. I was in high school when this song first came out in 1979. I remember it well. My girlfriend and I at the time loved attending concerts. It was one of the things we loved doing together. There were a huge number of wonderful groups at the time and concerts were not very expensive to attend. Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Boston, Journey, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Triumph, 38 Special, Foreigner, and many others. I can not describe to you what a wonderful time it was to be young then. We were happier, relationships were closer, life was more carefree, and the music was spectacular. My heart just aches that young people will not get to experience life as we did as teenagers in the 70’s/80’s. Again, thank you so much for posting this video. It was a wonderful treat.
1st time listener because i saw the song you were doing... looking forward to seeing your reaction... i saw this show at Giants Stadium & Veterans Stadium down in Philly... Floyd forever
This is the best live concert ever, from the best band ever. PF will be played like Mozart , & they have been in my life since my Dark side of the Moon poster was on my bedroom wall as a teenager , they will be played at my funeral ❤😌🙏
Ha Ha. I was going to say, if you go down that Rabbit Hole, but then you said it. I'm telling 'ya, you'll never be the same, Daddy-O. WE ALL know what you mean, when you say it "took over your body".
Saw this tour in Toronto, Ontario at the old Exhibition Stadium. 10th row, floor seats. Sound and lights were phenomenal, easily one of the best shows I've ever seen.
I was fortunate to see Pink Floyd not once but twice way back in 1988 and 1989 during their Delicate Sound of Thunder tour. A Pink Floyd concert cannot be explained but must be experienced. The show, the musicians, the lights and all is in my opinion one of the greatest if not the greatest shows of all time. Certainly in my lifetime.
I went to a Pink Floyd concert in 1987. Best concert I've ever been to in my life. Even blew away Rock am Ring in 1985 with 18 different bands over the course of 2 days and Monsters of Rock in 1984 with 7 different bands.
I have seen that video so may times and David Gilmore's solo at the end never fails to blow me away. LIke every single time. It's the most amazing thing i've ever heard!
Still have my ticket stub from seeing pink floyd in February 1977 in Munich Germany while in the army. I've been to a lot of great concerts including California Jam 1 and this is the only ticket stub I've kept for some 45yrs.
Saw them in 1994 in Basel, Switzerland. Besides the visuals, people often forget the quality of the sound you had in Pink Floyd concerts. Pink Floyd did the world's first surround sound concerts. You had speakers all around the stadium and the middle of the pitch. It was the best concert in my life !
I subscribed the second you showed up on camera...Good vibe you put out there my friend. I'm American, but live in Israel now. 🇮🇱 Just gonna say this. I'm 50 years old now. Going to a Pink Floyd concert wasn't just a concert...It was a blessing from G-d being alive to listen & see the EVENT that was before your eyes and ears. Shalom. 🖖✌️
I saw that show on 6th of august '94 i Basel/switzerland. I can tell you it was like an out of body experience. A ride in an other dimension. The best gig i have seen EVER. I saw many concerts by a lot of great bands, but this was the peak of the mountain. I consider myself a lucky guy, that i had the chance to see them live.
Great review, welcome to Pink Floyd rabbit hole! Just fyi, that guitar solo has now been named #1 guitar solo in rock history! I am one of the lucky ones to have seen David do it twice and still concerts I remember vividly to this day! Doesn't get any better than Pink Floyd!
My friend, I was there at that concert. You're so right about Gilmores guitar solo. Comfortably Numb is my favourite tune of all time, this version that I was lucky enough to be present for is the best version, that guitar solo is the absolute best sound a guitar can make. Ever. Glad you've been introduced to it and you will seek out more Floyd.
I saw The Division Bell tour at the Sunbowl in El Paso. What an amazing show. You see the light show in this video but to experience that live with the music, it was like an acid free acid trip. Truly, the best concert I ever went to.
It makes perfect sense. I saw them in 86, and you nailed it. Pink Floyd is the platform that David Gilmour soars above like a god. He set the gold standard for guitar for me. His playing is transcendent. I don't really understand spirituality. I'm not sure what it means. But that solo and a few of his others give me a good idea. It's been 37 years, and that solo still gives me chills.
I first saw Pink Floyd in 1973, in Tampa, and 3 more times in Atlanta, the last in 1979. We were tripping each time ,so it was kinda beyond realistic, but very laid back.
you dont close your eyes at pink floyd show seen them in celmson sc blew my mind air planes crashing pigs floating in the sky and what you saw now o and great rock and roll
I went to their Momentary Lapse of Reason tour in 88, best concert I've been to bar none. It was outside and it was getting foggy, and the light show was spectacular and of course the music put's it all together. I would have loved to go to their last tour, but I couldn't get time off.
The closest that I can come to this in concert was getting to see the Eagles on the "Hell Freezes Over" tour in like 1995 and it was incredible....this show had to be a freaking religious experience.
Twice - Momentary Lapse of Reason tour (Delicate Sound of Thunder) in high school in the balcony and Division Bell tour (Pulse) in my mid-20s on the main floor. Incomparably religious experiences, both!
Gotta agree with others, watching Pink Floyd with your eyes closed is like showing up a half hour late to the concert and spending all of your time on your cell phone instead of watching the show.....but then, that is what most people do now anyway isn't it? Not sure why they pay for tickets and ignore the visceral experience of being there.
I've seen this concert in Montpellier in France... The best concert ever... I'm a real fan of Pink Floyd, but this concert was an amazing show, lights, strange things appearing all the time according to the track (warthogs for One Of These Days for example), and the best sound in the world. That was just magic, a pure magic moment. Thanks for your great reaction, very touching. Love from France 🇫🇷😘
I was sitting directly opposite the Giant Mirror Ball which came down from the ceiling on the left hand side looking towards the stage..Tripping off 100 mushrooms
🥰 Subbed for Pink Floyd! Catching up on your PF Reactions now! 😵💫 How I looked for 2 days after seeing this Concert in NJ at The Meadowlands. 🤔 Then again, how I left every Floyd/Gilmour or Waters shows I'd ever seen. 🤩 Floyd, Queen, Bowie, Who & more threw some awesome Concerts at Madison Square Garden. They would sell out so fast, you had no choice but go to NJ if you wanted to see them. 😁🐰
That's a David Gilmour guitar solo, no one expresses emotion through an electric guitar like Gilmour, he is the master of "feel" and emotion in his playing. The original studio recording of this song in 1979, on Pink Floyds "The Wall" album, is considered by many as the greatest Rock guitar solo ever! Pink Floyd is a Legendary British Rock Band formed in London in 1965, they are one of the GOATs in Rock Music,... and THE GOAT, in the "Progressive Rock" genre. They have sold over 300 million albums worldwide, and they've sold-out 90,000 seat venues consistently for over 3 decades! Pink Floyds music takes the listener on a journey, a cerebral journey, a trance like feeling. Some have said it's like an out of body experience. There's no band that has such an incredible catalog of masterpieces like PF, there's no band that can come close to the elaborate live performances PF put on every concert! If you're planning on going down the Pink Floyd rabbit hole, you're in for a great ride, with lots of likes, and subscriptions. Pink Floyd has a plethora of diehard fans, from today and the past 50 years! If you are going forward with PFs music, their "The Dark Side of the Moon" album from 1973 is a great place to start. One of the greatest Rock album of all time,... imo it IS the greatest Rock album of all time! It has sold over 50 million copies on its own, it gets universally high praise from Rock Music critics for decades. The album spent 962 weeks on Billboards Top 100 Selling Albums list of all time, that's over 18.5 years and a record that may never be equaled. The Artist in 2nd place is only around 500 weeks. The DSOTM album is a concept album like many of Floyd's albums, it tells a story and is meant to be listened to in full, in one sitting. The songs flow seamlessly from the end of one song, into the beginning of the next song. Lastly, the name Pink Floyd is the band's name, not a person's name. Pink Floyds roots are in Blues, like virtually every British Rock Band that came out of England in the 1960s. They took their name from two Ole' Time Blues guitarists from the early to mid 1900s. They are,... ... PINK Anderson, (1900 to 1974), and FLOYD Council, (1911 to 1976).
So I was 1986 in Hannover and Hamburg, and what you never hear again, is the 100000 watt 5.1 surround PA System, you never see the two cablecars above us with the flying dancing pink Pig, the Plane , the Marrinonet etc....and the Battle between the Backroundsinger and david gets a little bit longer in the CN Solo ;)
I had the chance to see this show two nights in a row during their visit to the Olympic Stadium in Montreal on May 23 and 24, 1994. Since I worked night shifts, I had to go to work after the show, and the buddies at work looked at me like I was high on drugs, yet I hadn't taken anything. With Pink Floyd, no need for drugs to get high, their music is more than enough and in addition, there is no danger of overdose. But seeing them performing can become addictive, hence the reason for seeing this show twice. Take the time to watch the track: Pink Floyd - One Of These Days (PULSE Restored & Re-Edited). Not a lot of lyrics in this song, but a stunning sound and light show.
When you get a chance, read up on the song or songs that you are going to listen to. There's so much to learn. Their songs can be very deep and have a lot of meaning
My 2 favorite guitarists are David Gilmour and Mark Knopfler. This performance is one of my fav. And if you check out Marks performance in the song called Calling Elvis from DIRE STRAITS Live ON THE NIGHT 1993. It has so many little surprises with a guitar solo and a fantastic drum solo with 2 drummers ( 1 percussionist) and other unexpected surprises. Very entertaining. Cheers from Australia 🎸🎸🎸
I saw them when I was 14 years old in a little club in London in 1968 in London, and again later at the same huge venue (Earls Court, London) as in this video in 1968, 20 years before this video, as they premiered 'Dark Side of the Moon'. It was one of the most memorable things I've ever seen/heard. In my humble opinion, they're one of the best, most innovative bands to come out of England, ever. When we all left the venue, there was a crazy lightshow playing on the clouds in the sky. Pink Floyd had paid the army to light it up with coloured searchlights.
Similar experience, First time was in the 60s when they were supporting Hendrix and The Move, cost me 10/6 lol. through to Wembley in the 80s, London Dockland, Knebworth and finally here at Earls Court.
I’ve seen this video many, many times but this is the first time I saw the child in the unfolded disco ball. It’s always ladies that say they saw a child in it, but I never did until this viewing. And finally, lo and behold, there it was. How strange.
Pink Floyd's concerts were full-on light & sound experiences. No-one has ever had gigs like them. This song originally had Roger Waters (singing the verses) and David Gilmour (singing the lush choruses and playing the GOAT lead break). The Pulse concerts were after Waters left the band. With or without him, it's phenomenal. A great Gilmour solo that many don't know about is on Warren Zevon's song "Run Straight Down" - well worth looking for.
everyone is totally impressed with Pink F. and now you too...there is a band that does Pink Floyd songs I dont know is they are stilil touring with Covid and all but they sound very close to the originals
Hey, Risby. Very good tune to absorb Floyd through. "Captivating" is an excellent descriptive. I might suggest you check out a song called "She's Moved On" by a band called Porcupine Tree (album: Lightbulb Sun). Same kind of mellow intensity and the solo just keeps building to a point of frenzy without you even noticing. Same habit David Gilmour has. When you think it starts to get overwhelming, they have a way of amping it up another notch! Peace!
This performance was in the encore of the show - and they had already been playing for 2 HOURS by this time. I was there for 3 of the 15 nights they were there (including the night of this recording) and I still missed things. Maybe you should do a reaction to On The Run from the same concert. You do not listen to Pink Floyd - you EXPERIENCE Pink Floyd. You need to keep your eyes OPEN or you will miss so much. I would also strongly advise you to listen to the WHOLE of The Dark Side Of The Moon and Wish You Were Here, each in ONE go and also Echoes (this is one song and 23 minutes!)
Dude, you understood one of the rules in listening to this: one does not interrupt a David Gilmour guitar solo with any comments or interruptions. Been to five PF shows (including the original “Wall” performance at Nassau Coliseum) and they have all been captivating in different ways.
Now you've met David Gilmour and his guitar, and I'm not surprised you want more... Some other of his unbelievable guitar solos can be found in *"Shine On, You Crazy Diamond"* (in two parts, both are great), *"Dogs",* and *"Echoes"* (the only song I recommend the live version first, from the 1972 "Live in Pompeii" presentation --- they played the entire "concert" live, but with no audience other than technicians, in the ancient ruins of Pompeii, a Roman town destroyed by a volcanic eruption almost 2,000 years ago, and it's AWESOME!). Also "Wish You Were Here", in which David plays only ACOUSTIC guitar and it's just as amazing! But of course, Pink Floyd was more than just David Gilmour, and you ABSOLUTELY MUST listen to *"The Dark Side of the Moon".* No, it's not a song, it's an entire album, over 40 minutes long, but it's meant to be listened all at once. Yes, it is divided into songs, but they don't have half the impact when played in isolation. I assure you that it's a life-changing experience! It was not by chance that this album remained SEVENTEEN YEARS straight on the list of the 100 best-selling albums worldwide. A really historic, classic, extremely important and amazing album!
Ive always said that rhis video becomes a battle between the ears and the eyes... your ears win that battle lmaooo you should watch it again to really see the light effects
Shame this was their last concert. Watch the whole concert you will not be disappointed. 200,000 watts of power, 128 wireless speakers. Disco ball is a BIG FU to music critics once said they will not sell cause they don't play dance music. saw 5 times and every time when the crowd left it was so quiet leaving . stunned what they just saw. This isn't even the last song " Run Like hell".also a must "sorrow" " High Hopes"
Great reaction, yes, you have a long way to go. But as i said earlier, their music is a journey in itself. Visually and phonetically. A great way to experience phonetically would be Shine On You Crazy Diamond parts 1-5. A journey you won't soon forget, i promise you. Welcome to the rabbit hole that is Pink Floyd. Much love&respect🤘
Thank you Ron. I will be uploading more Pink Floyd reactions today. Also I just wanted to say thank you once again Ron for your support. I really really appreciate it. It means a lot that someone takes the time to watch my video.
And o the seventh day, God created David Gilmore and his Fender Stratocruiser and the world has been in awe ever since. This is arguably the best guitar solo ever. The ball that opens up reveal as diamond and Syd Barrett for whom Shine on You Crazy Diamond was written.
I love seeing people's amazement when they listen to Floyd songs for the first time and the good thing is it gets better every time you hear it :-) :-) :-) :-)
Considered by many to be the greatest song ever written.

Trust me, the words are important......very important. That said, this solo has been voted best of all time.
Yet another stoic physical in-the-moment reaction to a masterful tapestry of a performance.
Welcome to the machine…. ❤️
honest reaction
Sorrow is another great performance from this concert..Pink Floyd are different in a magical way

Mine too he's number one on my list where guitarist are concerned.👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I saw them live in 1989 & 90. Unbelievable shows!!! Captivating is the right word. Once you experience Floyd, you're hooked.
I saw PF 3 times in the late 70's and early 80's and there show was the most amazing spectacle i have ever experienced at a concert and I've been to at least 100.

He closes his eyes during one of the greatest concert light shows ever at a live concert!
Welcome to magic of Pink Floyd... You will be addict to them very soon.
50 years ago Pink Floyd were already 200 years ahead of everybody!
I understand, but you don't want to close your eyes during a Pink Floyd Performance ;)
Blows my mind how people are still hearing this for the first time.
Where are the people.
pink floyd are a british national treasure legends .

You have too watch it one more time with your eyes open, the concert is more than epic music, its an epic light show, the best ever
The guitar playing of David Gilmore at the pulse concert when performing RUN LIKE HELL IS AMAZING 🎆🎆🎆🎆🎆🎆
They closed the show with that one for a reason! Talk about leave them wanting more.
1st time listener because i saw the song you were doing... looking forward to seeing your reaction... i saw this show at Giants Stadium & Veterans Stadium down in Philly... Floyd forever
This is the best live concert ever, from the best band ever. PF will be played like Mozart , & they have been in my life since my Dark side of the Moon poster was on my bedroom wall as a teenager , they will be played at my funeral ❤😌🙏
Ha Ha. I was going to say, if you go down that Rabbit Hole, but then you said it. I'm telling 'ya, you'll never be the same, Daddy-O. WE ALL know what you mean, when you say it "took over your body".

El mejor solo de guitarra de todos los tiempos.

I don't know how anyone can close their during this epic visual production.
Im just impressed by the engineering involved with that disco ball

the band is called Brit Floyd; you may want to check them out!!! They will tour this year 2023 if not already

Don't never close your eyes with a live Pink Floyd concert! You missed fifty per cent of the experience!
It was so beautiful listening to the guitar solo. I will make sure to keep my eyes open next time.
@@risbydacreator But you were right in the first place. That solo DOES NOT need any show around to grap your soul
The music is the experience. F*** the lights.
you dont close your eyes at pink floyd show seen them in celmson sc blew my mind air planes crashing pigs floating in the sky and what you saw now o and great rock and roll
i have been at a concert in january 1970 (in pariq)and it was already incredible , when i go out in the street i dont where i am
I went to their Momentary Lapse of Reason tour in 88, best concert I've been to bar none. It was outside and it was getting foggy, and the light show was spectacular and of course the music put's it all together. I would have loved to go to their last tour, but I couldn't get time off.
The closest that I can come to this in concert was getting to see the Eagles on the "Hell Freezes Over" tour in like 1995 and it was incredible....this show had to be a freaking religious experience.
Twice - Momentary Lapse of Reason tour (Delicate Sound of Thunder) in high school in the balcony and Division Bell tour (Pulse) in my mid-20s on the main floor. Incomparably religious experiences, both!
Gotta agree with others, watching Pink Floyd with your eyes closed is like showing up a half hour late to the concert and spending all of your time on your cell phone instead of watching the show.....but then, that is what most people do now anyway isn't it? Not sure why they pay for tickets and ignore the visceral experience of being there.
I saw that concert in Vancouver, BC in 1994. It was virtually a religious experience. I’ve never seen another concert like it.
I've seen this concert in Montpellier in France... The best concert ever... I'm a real fan of Pink Floyd, but this concert was an amazing show, lights, strange things appearing all the time according to the track (warthogs for One Of These Days for example), and the best sound in the world. That was just magic, a pure magic moment. Thanks for your great reaction, very touching. Love from France 🇫🇷😘
The best
One of my favorite t-shirts my wife made for me. She took my ticket stub from this concert, blew it up and had the image put on the t-shirt!
I was sitting directly opposite the Giant Mirror Ball which came down from the ceiling on the left hand side looking towards the stage..Tripping off 100 mushrooms
🥰 Subbed for Pink Floyd! Catching up on your PF Reactions now! 😵💫 How I looked for 2 days after seeing this Concert in NJ at The Meadowlands. 🤔 Then again, how I left every Floyd/Gilmour or Waters shows I'd ever seen. 🤩 Floyd, Queen, Bowie, Who & more threw some awesome Concerts at Madison Square Garden. They would sell out so fast, you had no choice but go to NJ if you wanted to see them. 😁🐰
You'll love the studio version too!
That's a David Gilmour guitar solo, no one expresses emotion through an electric guitar like Gilmour, he is the master of "feel" and emotion in his playing. The original studio recording of this song in 1979, on Pink Floyds "The Wall" album, is considered by many as the greatest Rock guitar solo ever!
Pink Floyd is a Legendary British Rock Band formed in London in 1965, they are one of the GOATs in Rock Music,... and THE GOAT, in the "Progressive Rock" genre. They have sold over 300 million albums worldwide, and they've sold-out 90,000 seat venues consistently for over 3 decades!
Pink Floyds music takes the listener on a journey, a cerebral journey, a trance like feeling. Some have said it's like an out of body experience. There's no band that has such an incredible catalog of masterpieces like PF, there's no band that can come close to the elaborate live performances PF put on every concert!
If you're planning on going down the Pink Floyd rabbit hole, you're in for a great ride, with lots of likes, and subscriptions. Pink Floyd has a plethora of diehard fans, from today and the past 50 years!
If you are going forward with PFs music, their "The Dark Side of the Moon" album from 1973 is a great place to start. One of the greatest Rock album of all time,... imo it IS the greatest Rock album of all time!
It has sold over 50 million copies on its own, it gets universally high praise from Rock Music critics for decades. The album spent 962 weeks on Billboards Top 100 Selling Albums list of all time, that's over 18.5 years and a record that may never be equaled. The Artist in 2nd place is only around 500 weeks.
The DSOTM album is a concept album like many of Floyd's albums, it tells a story and is meant to be listened to in full, in one sitting. The songs flow seamlessly from the end of one song, into the beginning of the next song.
Lastly, the name Pink Floyd is the band's name, not a person's name. Pink Floyds roots are in Blues, like virtually every British Rock Band that came out of England in the 1960s. They took their name from two Ole' Time Blues guitarists from the early to mid 1900s.
They are,...
... PINK Anderson, (1900 to 1974), and FLOYD Council, (1911 to 1976).
"echoes" live in pompeii 1971/72
I was there in 94 Earls court London best gig of my life
So I was 1986 in Hannover and Hamburg, and what you never hear again, is the 100000 watt 5.1 surround PA System, you never see the two cablecars above us with the flying dancing pink Pig, the Plane , the Marrinonet etc....and the Battle between the Backroundsinger and david gets a little bit longer in the CN Solo ;)
If you can, you should listen to the entire Pulse concert; it's amazing and well worth the 2 hours and 24 seconds.
You're welcome!
I had the chance to see this show two nights in a row during their visit to the Olympic Stadium in Montreal on May 23 and 24, 1994.
Since I worked night shifts, I had to go to work after the show, and the buddies at work looked at me like I was high on drugs, yet I hadn't taken anything. With Pink Floyd, no need for drugs to get high, their music is more than enough and in addition, there is no danger of overdose. But seeing them performing can become addictive, hence the reason for seeing this show twice.
Take the time to watch the track: Pink Floyd - One Of These Days (PULSE Restored & Re-Edited). Not a lot of lyrics in this song, but a stunning sound and light show.
Hi bro, I saw that concert in el paso tx. Sunbowl. 1995. It's was great.
When you get a chance, read up on the song or songs that you are going to listen to. There's so much to learn. Their songs can be very deep and have a lot of meaning
Thank you Kenny. I will start doing that. There’s so much to learn.
My 2 favorite guitarists are David Gilmour and Mark Knopfler. This performance is one of my fav. And if you check out Marks performance in the song called Calling Elvis from DIRE STRAITS Live ON THE NIGHT 1993. It has so many little surprises with a guitar solo and a fantastic drum solo with 2 drummers ( 1 percussionist) and other unexpected surprises. Very entertaining. Cheers from Australia 🎸🎸🎸
I saw them when I was 14 years old in a little club in London in 1968 in London, and again later at the same huge venue (Earls Court, London) as in this video in 1968, 20 years before this video, as they premiered 'Dark Side of the Moon'. It was one of the most memorable things I've ever seen/heard. In my humble opinion, they're one of the best, most innovative bands to come out of England, ever. When we all left the venue, there was a crazy lightshow playing on the clouds in the sky. Pink Floyd had paid the army to light it up with coloured searchlights.
Similar experience, First time was in the 60s when they were supporting Hendrix and The Move, cost me 10/6 lol. through to Wembley in the 80s, London Dockland, Knebworth and finally here at Earls Court.
I’ve seen this video many, many times but this is the first time I saw the child in the unfolded disco ball. It’s always ladies that say they saw a child in it, but I never did until this viewing. And finally, lo and behold, there it was. How strange.
Pink Floyd's concerts were full-on light & sound experiences. No-one has ever had gigs like them. This song originally had Roger Waters (singing the verses) and David Gilmour (singing the lush choruses and playing the GOAT lead break). The Pulse concerts were after Waters left the band. With or without him, it's phenomenal. A great Gilmour solo that many don't know about is on Warren Zevon's song "Run Straight Down" - well worth looking for.
yeah i was at this show in Miami at thee football stadium with 75000 of my closest freinds
everyone is totally impressed with Pink F. and now you too...there is a band that does Pink Floyd songs I dont know is they are stilil touring with Covid and all but they sound very close to the originals
I should do a reaction of me listening to this version for the 1,786th time.
Nice reaction (:
Pink Floyd introduced laser lights at concerts and surround sound to the world
Hey, Risby. Very good tune to absorb Floyd through. "Captivating" is an excellent descriptive. I might suggest you check out a song called "She's Moved On" by a band called Porcupine Tree (album: Lightbulb Sun). Same kind of mellow intensity and the solo just keeps building to a point of frenzy without you even noticing. Same habit David Gilmour has. When you think it starts to get overwhelming, they have a way of amping it up another notch! Peace!
Saw this in 94 Tampa Florida
This performance was in the encore of the show - and they had already been playing for 2 HOURS by this time. I was there for 3 of the 15 nights they were there (including the night of this recording) and I still missed things. Maybe you should do a reaction to On The Run from the same concert. You do not listen to Pink Floyd - you EXPERIENCE Pink Floyd. You need to keep your eyes OPEN or you will miss so much.
I would also strongly advise you to listen to the WHOLE of The Dark Side Of The Moon and Wish You Were Here, each in ONE go and also Echoes (this is one song and 23 minutes!)
My only experience involving a PF concert was the ticket I had to sell when I got unexpectedly deployed while in the Navy.😭
Dude, you understood one of the rules in listening to this: one does not interrupt a David Gilmour guitar solo with any comments or interruptions. Been to five PF shows (including the original “Wall” performance at Nassau Coliseum) and they have all been captivating in different ways.
Now you've met David Gilmour and his guitar, and I'm not surprised you want more... Some other of his unbelievable guitar solos can be found in *"Shine On, You Crazy Diamond"* (in two parts, both are great), *"Dogs",* and *"Echoes"* (the only song I recommend the live version first, from the 1972 "Live in Pompeii" presentation --- they played the entire "concert" live, but with no audience other than technicians, in the ancient ruins of Pompeii, a Roman town destroyed by a volcanic eruption almost 2,000 years ago, and it's AWESOME!). Also "Wish You Were Here", in which David plays only ACOUSTIC guitar and it's just as amazing!
But of course, Pink Floyd was more than just David Gilmour, and you ABSOLUTELY MUST listen to *"The Dark Side of the Moon".* No, it's not a song, it's an entire album, over 40 minutes long, but it's meant to be listened all at once. Yes, it is divided into songs, but they don't have half the impact when played in isolation. I assure you that it's a life-changing experience! It was not by chance that this album remained SEVENTEEN YEARS straight on the list of the 100 best-selling albums worldwide. A really historic, classic, extremely important and amazing album!
Well, now you know!
Ive always said that rhis video becomes a battle between the ears and the eyes... your ears win that battle lmaooo you should watch it again to really see the light effects
Shame this was their last concert. Watch the whole concert you will not be disappointed. 200,000 watts of power, 128 wireless speakers. Disco ball is a BIG FU to music critics once said they will not sell cause they don't play dance music. saw 5 times and every time when the crowd left it was so quiet leaving . stunned what they just saw. This isn't even the last song " Run Like hell".also a must "sorrow" " High Hopes"
We were drooling idiots for three days after this concert
You don’t listen to Pink Floyd, you feel them
Want an experience? Do Atom Heart Mother Suite - you won't regret it. On par with Comfortably Numb. Seriously. From 1970.
Great reaction, yes, you have a long way to go. But as i said earlier, their music is a journey in itself. Visually and phonetically. A great way to experience phonetically would be Shine On You Crazy Diamond parts 1-5. A journey you won't soon forget, i promise you. Welcome to the rabbit hole that is Pink Floyd. Much love&respect🤘
Thank you Ron. I will be uploading more Pink Floyd reactions today. Also I just wanted to say thank you once again Ron for your support. I really really appreciate it. It means a lot that someone takes the time to watch my video.
In case you are wondering "Is there anything even better than this?" No, there isn't.
Except this with your eyes open after a smoke.
You should react to Echoes from David Gilmour Live in Gdansk. I was at 2 shows of this tour...
🔥🔥🔥
If you want an even longer solo. Look for the original version. It is over a minute longer.
That was one song in that concert.
And o the seventh day, God created David Gilmore and his Fender Stratocruiser and the world has been in awe ever since. This is arguably the best guitar solo ever. The ball that opens up reveal as diamond and Syd Barrett for whom Shine on You Crazy Diamond was written.
god co-wrote this song with david gilmour!!!
It's "Gilmour", and "Stratocaster".
@@psbarrow thank you for your response. I arrived home way too late and too wet (I’m on the West Coast) when I realised my error.
@@karenward267 No worries, Dave slips me a fiver for every correction of his surname.
@@psbarrow you win the award for best internets response. Love your sense of humour. 😂😂
