The amount of inspiration and how he was intrigued and charmed about his own life by just this performance to make an entire album that would be known by almost everyone and almost every single musician out there is astounding.
I think the wall would of happened regardless as he had most of those ideas in his head around that time which would made it onto an album. It might of not been called The Wall but the ideas would of been there.
That was not a typical “Floyd” concert. The fans sounded more like game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals, Montreal vs. Chicago, than the more cerebral, stoned crowd that the Floyd were used to. Dont think the boys were cut out to handle that kind of crowd. Certainly out of their element.
You gotta wonder what was typical because this was 1977, stadium tours were still a pretty new thing for rock concerts, security was very lax compared to now (you have to wonder how exactly people were able to sneak in those tape recorders which definitely were not small, yet the sheer number of bootleg recordings from the time are testimony to the fact that people did it all the time - perhaps they bribed security?), drug use was reaching its high point so you can guess that there were more intoxicated fans than sober ones at any given concert, and of course by 1977 Pink Floyd had joined the ranks of Led Zeppelin, Rolling Stones, and The Who for popularity but many years after those groups did, meaning they had done a lot more time as a cult band of limited appeal than those groups, really the only band that was ever psychedelic to break through like that. They must have seen crowd like this all across North America, but maybe Montreal really was rowdier than anywhere else. I know that they did enjoy some shows (everyone knows the Boston gig was a "perfect night") but I'm sure it was still a rather different experience than what they were used to.
@@hughganis3886 Too many fukheads did, same at MSG's 4 night show - the cheap seats were throwing sparklers and crackers and shit shit down at us on the floor. IT was over the 4th "Holiday"
At EXACTLY 2:21...*SPIT*! Turn up, listen carefully. At 2:14, Roger yells "Closer!", then at 2:21 you hear a spit noise! There you are! The ACTUAL MOMENT of the Legendary Roger Waters Loogie Bomb, audible & documented!!!
Roger once said in an interview that a crowd like this one is what a stadium is at it's best, unfortunately neither him or the rest of the band were used to a crowd like this by 1977, most of their performances before this tour, the crowds were patient and listened to the music before cheering at the end of a song
I attended the show. It could have gotten real ugly, must have been a full moon. They did 3 encores.To my recollection, the stadium lights were on for 20 minutes before the 3rd one. Fans wouldn't leave, so they came on and did a slow relaxing blues number to finish the night.
Honestly I can’t blame Roger for feeling uneasy with the Montreal crowd in 1977. We are still known today to cheer very loud for any artists who come here, but it was an even worse time in the late 70s. There were barely any rules and the Olympic stadium is not a very fit place for concerts. And it didn’t even have a roof on top of lack of security and control. I think we are bit more tame now. When he came to Montreal this summer he was very happy and was grateful that everyone was so happy to see him, as long as no one was climbing up the stage!
The amazing this about this is the fact that the band start to build up the intensity of the music to a crescendo at 2:10 , almost as if it was pre planned and they knew what Waters was just a bout to do after calling the boy over!
When life hands you a lemon (rowdy fans) make LEMONADE( the WALL)! I'll bet Dave & Roger "ran like hell" to get out of Montreal that night. So glad Roger got the last laugh.
He had actually been toying with the idea as early as 1975.He thought about putting a wall between the band and the audience.I think Steve o Rourke talked him out of it.At least until later
@DeKalblu I've read that the spitting, cursing and the riot police beating down the fans in Montreal was for Waters, reminiscent of the Nazi's violent oppression during WW2 and felt that large venues like stadium concerts created a wall between the band and the fans .So how crazy the Montreal concert was, and how ignorantly people blame Quebecers or Canadians, the Montreal concert was a turning point for Pink Floyd and an inspiration for The Wall.
from both bootlegs of the same show (2 different tapers) during times didnt seem so rowdy from the tapers perspective BOTH OF THEM spitting happened here 2:20
i have an awesome matrix recording of the show. the guy who posted it used 6 recordings of the show to get the whole thing and he has to constantly correct 5 of the 6. took him 30 min to mix 1 min. great concert. as for the spitting, Roger himself says he regrets doing it but he was so disgusted with the arena rock scene. I dont really care. I love his music.
So much in the story of Pink Floyd happened that night. How a night of meltdowns, badly behaved fans was the initial birth pang of one of their biggest albums - and the beginning of the (very long) end of the Roger Waters led Floyd.
Is it just me, or does Roger's speech sound kind of...slurred? Maybe it's the age of the tape, but I've always felt he sounded a bit chemically affected in these clips.
And this was the END of Pink Floyd as a GROUP. The other 3 (minus Waters) said to each other backstage after the show "That's it, we're done" The Wall was done under incredibly miserable tense recording and the Final Cut was basically a Waters solo album.
That band is still making millions after 30 years . Their twin guitar attack and lyrics are vicious and fanatic just like the fuhrer himself. Show respect you subhuman worthless crap or come to L.A. and get your skull bashed in by old school metal heads that are sick and tired of boring old dust farters like you.....Im a musician and I love Floyd And Zep....no hard feelings....
I'm surprised there was never an attempt made to reunite Roger with the guy who got spat upon. You know, they could've done something like when they reunited that famous couple from the Woodstock '69 picture
@@dominicmuirhead9912 To be honest, if I was David, I wouldn’t be upset at Roger because you don’t throw a fucking beer at the performers and blow up fireworks!
It was Pigs (Three Different Ones). They would jam out to the bridge, And sometimes even jammed out at the end of David’s guitar solo. That’s why it sounds kinda different, Even reminded me of Careful With That Axe.
This was one of Rogers worst concerts the crowd was just crazy! He spat in someones face and cursed at the fans. Halfway trough the show a few hundred fans without tickets broke trough a large window and rushed in front of the stage, fights broke out and it was causing allot of commotion. The riot Police arrived with shields batons and helmets, beat down the crowd like animals and dragged them to the side.
poor Roger, he had had enough, the idiots need to shut up.. he didnt realize how much the audience was feeding off his anger. some one threw an effin firework at him, i'd be mad too. he felt so bad about it too, he just lost his temper, give him a break! and so comes THE WALL...
The only music to my knowledge, which speaks to us so much about our schizophrenia and our paranoia, within our current dystopian society. It is an absolutely necessary medical diagnosis, for an optimal remission. It is a question of legitimate philosophical balance, of physical and mental health. #fuckpolly
At the end of Pigs 3, Roger says for the last time: "There's a good boy..." then walks up to the edge of the stage as the kid gets within range and SCHLPAT.
@@patricksommer3971 yeah and Roger wanted that song off the Wall and David came in the studio more furious than she'd ever seen him according to his wife at the time.
I was at that concert, and within 50 feet of the stage. I am not a big fan of Roger. But there is no question in my mind that he was provoked. That was a very big concert even by Floyd numbers. And you can understand how all of them were a bit nervous. Guy clamors up in stage and starts giving Roger a hard time. I thought the dialog was in French; anti English was still very much a big deal. He seemed inebriated and out of control. Roger had nothing to protect him in case this guy was a looney.I thought the guy was insulting Roger. There was still a lot of anti Anglo sentiment. The guy was clearly inebriated. I am amazed nobody tried to stop him, but I thought that he was giving The Tall Man grief. It wasn't R's better moments, but I could see how he got there. And he made something positive out of it.
I saw this all happen - was right at the barricades front the center. People were trying to tear them down (not me) Bear in mind, the 4 preceding shows at Madison Square Garden, were interrupted repeatedly by fukwads in the cheap seats throwing fireworks down on those of us up front. I was there all 4 nights. They threw fireworks at Montreal also - I was temporarily blinded by one of them that fell directly beside us. I believe it was some kind of military smoke bomb, and for several minutes my eyeballs were coated with yellow dust of some sort, I actually feared I had been blinded. So I don't blame him And yes, they were trying to do a good show - part of that is recorded - Roger stopping the show and calling him a Stupid M-F-er. The encore they all came back except David - and played a lovely slow blues ("Music to go home to") while the roadies tore down the equipment - last notes were them carrying Nick out with his snare drum - that was kewl
Can anyone name just one song roger wrote after he quit the band then sued his best friends. Everyone thinks he’s some incredible song writer. David said it best in the court/ trial transcripts. He is our bass player. He was easily replaced and Floyd’s next album sold 16 million copies. Without Roger. Rogers albums combined did not break until today the 100 thousand copies
@@aidanfl What are you talking about. It's highly documented that Roger wrote almost all there songs lyrics. What he didn't do is write many songs. Like Comfortably Numb which without that song an argument can be made The Wall wouldn't have been anywhere near as big. Comfortably Numb was written by David in 1973. It's on youtube as one of his demos for his solo album. Roger wasn't telling Richard or David what to play. That's absurd. Back then he didn't play guitar and still barely can play a piano. The song writers were Dave and Richard and lyrics were Roger.

@pinkfloydrule27 My mistake . I hadn't listened to his entire tirade. Just the first minute or so. Having heard it all, I will agree with you that he lost it a bit. :-)
One of the reasons I am proud to be a Montrealer!! You see folks there was 80000 pink floyd fans that HOT sunny day ! More than the olympic games a year before! I'd say 65% were quebecers 35% were Montrealers. Quebecers are known to party to the max and be very loud Lol montrealers too but not like them. What do you expect when you can find liquor and beer anywhere in every dépanneur not like toronto lol (HABS#1) 🤫 Montreal is not a ordinary canadian city its sin city...its the Las Vegas of canada but in french style ! That day there was 80000 drunks..this is coming out of Roger's own mouth ..fact! We were the first to embrace pink floyd in north america and if it wasn't for that one unruly crazy fan that tried climbing that stage there would have been NO WALL! So thank you to that drunk bastard that got that special magical loogie that has never come forward !! He is a legend lol!
I guess Roger wasn't trained not to spit on the fan...
hahaha
Okay, so I know this comment is a year old, but that was brilliant.
Bravo. Excellent.
Gee I wish I'd come up with that! Well done Michael. Very well done indeed!
I agree with fizaa, but now at 3 years later. Fuck you, you brilliant bastard. That is a beautiful comment 🤣
With a crowd like that, I can see any musician hating a performance like this
And the sound system was weak and nearly drown out by the crowd
Supposedly they kept doing this every time they went into a quiet performance and kept having to stop several times. Very frustrating.
Frankly, I'm glad this happened, otherwise we wouldn't have The Wall.
