    I was there in that crowd. Every word you said is right. That was a true masterpiece at every level. The whole concert was the experience of a lifetime and I still get goosebumps and tear up when I see videos of it, and I'm 75 and seen nothing to compare with Pink Floyd. As for David Gilmour, he is just a genius.

    I have watched literally hundreds of reactions to this performance and it never gets old. I choked up and shed tears listening to the music and watching your reaction, just like I always do. You're 100% right, this is more than music. This performance taps into something deep inside all of us, and creates a world we can all lose ourselves in. This is an experience like no other. Pink Floyd was a band like no other. At 78 years old and nearly a decade after PF officially disbanded, David is still selling out huge arenas like Madison Square Garden. I will be there with my son (27) and daughter (29) on November 9. I want them to experience what it's like to see David Gilmour live on stage while there is still a chance. I can't wait.

You will not be disappointed in either one love you, my brother.

    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.

    Welcome to the very deep rabbit hole that is Pink Floyd. Your journey is just beginning when/ if you get a little more time please continue to react to other tracks from their rather large catalog. You will like some more than others but you will enjoy it all . Some earlier comments suggest watching the video while listening saying your missing half the experience and they are right. But it’s your choice. Maybe try it a couple of times?

    The Floyd is definitely an experience all their own. I was lucky enough to see them a few times before they quit it. A few of the best shows I've ever seen.
    Like you said, the music speaks to your heart & grabs your soul. The only live experience that came close to them was Stevie Ray Vaughan & Double Trouble live. Be sure to check this monster trio out sir. Stevie will grab you by the soul & take you for a ride.

    Back when I could still play, "COMFORTABLY NUMB" was always my warm-up song when I'd pick up my bass to practice. A year ago, I had a couple of back-to-back strokes and am no longer able to play, but this was the song. I sure miss playing it. Pink Floyd had several really great "bass player" songs, do keep going. As one bassist to another, be sure to check out the bass line in Frankie Goes To Hollywood's "WELCOME TO THE PLEASURE DOME" ua-cam.com/video/WzOGLKTmeuY/v-deo.html. Even as a little kid, I was always drawn to the bass in songs. The bass in that song made me want to be a bassist. Just found and subscribed to your channel, looking forward to more.

    Great reaction. For another mind-blowing live Pink Floyd masterpiece, be sure to check out the 25-minute long epic "ECHOES." (ua-cam.com/video/zrProK5R7ms/v-deo.html)
    The song is a brilliant and deeply emotional musical "conversation" between Gilmour's guitar and Rick Wright's keyboards (and their voices), and when Wright died in 2007, Gilmour stated that he'd never perform it live again. So this video, from the final night of Gilmour's 2006 tour, is literally the last performance ever. Enjoy! I look forward to seeing your reaction.
