I truly understand what you mean. And it is just a term of endearment. But Gilmour was born with a gift. As was many of his generation. And he too was exposed and flirted with chemical dependency and unlike others of his generation. He overcame the temptations that destroyed and even took the life of great artist. So David HAS TO make it his business to share his GOD GIVEN TALENT.
Few people know how close the world came to utter destruction that night. That amount of awesomeness very nearly tore the fabric of the space-time continuum.
As for the audience appearing tame during the performances. As someone who saw the concerts , during the songs one finds themselves caught up in the overwhelming onslaught of sight/sound/emotions . Comfortably numb & spellbound. Then, as you said, between songs the audience experiences the release & explode in joyous appreciation.
100%. I wasn't lucky enough to see them on this tour - they didn't tour down under - but I went four times in Jan/Feb 1988. To be honest, I was just happy to see and hear them live. But even if you had a seat in the very back row, and couldn't really see the band, you got treated to the best bits of the lighting effects. I remember Comfortably Numb in particular, with the laser beams shot out above the crowd. We were above the laser beams and, together with Gilmour's first solo, it was just amazing.
Absolutely, those ladies were amazing. Rick the quiet one worked magic, he and David meshed so well, they were meant to play together. Still sad about his passing.
I venture that the threesome of Rachel Fury, Durga McBroom and Margaret Taylor are the best. Their rendition on the "Delicate Sound of Thunder" of "Great Gig in the Sky" is otherworldly.
Pulse concert, Oakland Coliseum, April 22, 1994. Life changing. Still talking about it. This was so phenomenal, we all the the helicopters were real. Pink Floyd was better live than recorded. The backup singers were unbelievable. BEST concert of my life.
Stacey, the Pulse concert at Earls Court wasn’t just one concert. They played every night for nearly 3 weeks (with a few nights off now and then) with a full house. How they did that and how they were not all deaf at the end of it I will never know. I was at one of the other nights but it was every bit as brilliant. To call it a concert does not do it justice. It was a total Audio-visual experience and one that for me will never be surpassed. Watching your journey with Pink Floyd is like reliving my own all those years ago. By the way, the crowd did jump and down and scream!
'Pulse' is the name of Pink Floyd's third live album and the film of the last few concerts at Earl's Court London that played the standard set list from 'The Division Bell Tour.' It was both the most expensive and highest-grossing tour in rock music history to that date. There were two venues on the tour where instead they played the whole of The Dark Side of the Moon, first on 15 July at the Pontiac Silverdome in Pontiac, Michigan, which was the first time since 1975 it was played. You can get that as well as the Earl Court standard set list performance on the Blu-Ray 5.1 DTS Deluxe Edition of the concert film. So all the concert merchandise would be 'The Division Bell Tour,' 'Pulse' was the marketing name for the album and the film, not the concert itself. The tour start in March of 1994 at Norton Air Force Base, San Bernardino California USA for something like 61 North American shows, and ending in October after 51 European shows with its 2 week run at Earl's Court.
Seeing Pink Floyd live was and still is one of the best life experiences I ever had. It was the Division Bell tour and I saw them in Hockenheim Germany back in '94. Love your reaction.
This song is a good example of the creativity of PF in different ways. Listening Open Air 1994 at Hockenheim Ring, Germany, I stood about 40 Meters in front of the stage. There were speaker on the left and right in front, at the side, in the rear. When the song started you got the feeling the helicopter is make a flight around you! For 1994 unbelievable.
As always, I love your PULSE reactions, Stacey. I was there the night they filmed this. I was probably the best night of my live, concert-wise. I was four rows from the stage, right in the middle, so I almost had a sunburn and no eyebrows left after all the bright lights and pyrotechnics! The banks of lights at floor level were REALLY hot when they fired them up! 🙂
@@jim1125-cv6yg I’m certainly not denying that being further back and able to take in the whole spectacle would be quite an experience. It was sensory overload all around, down at the front. It was the only concert I’ve been at that had surround sound too. Amazing
Do you remember how much your tickets cost? I had a friend who saw them in Atlanta, GA on this tour. I believe he paid about $50 for his...but don't recall where he told me his seat was located.
@@rabudman I seem to recall it was about £30. Could easily multiply that by at least 10 these days. Mind you, my seat was dead centre, row 4, so the cost would be astronomical
I was at this concert Stacey. The reason the crowd seem calm is because there's so much going on visually & because of an appreciation for the musicianship. I do see other reactors closing their eyes & jumping about in their chairs but they end up missing most of the performance. Have you checked out "The great gig in the sky" yet?
If there was a concert I could go back in time to see it would be this one. I have the pulse concert album cd that was my father’s I got when he passed away. I would have been about 10-11 year old when the concert happened and was aware of Pink Floyd because he listened to it but not greatly. But now I have much more appreciation for them because of listening to them and seeing people reaction to the pulse concert
9:39 You mentioned earlier how you don't understand how the crowd aren't jumping around. This shot perfectly illustrates it. They are mesmerised. Take it from the stage and their mouths will be open.
If you ever experienced a live concert of PF, you can't jump. Your litteraly hypnotized and paralized. All you hear is that enormous beautifull breathtaking sound. Your in a dream.
I saw the Pulse concert in Munich at the Olympic Stadium. We were so engrossed from the very first note! We moved and swayed and danced. However, we just listened to the best concert ever performed - every song was better than what we had heard before! And the solos! OMG, we all seemed to be mesmerized. Stacey, you would have also been "hypnotized" like everyone else
There's great bands in history. Then there's PF, an 11/10. They are so unique it's not even fair to compare other bands to them. They stand alone, making the best quality music in rock history.
So glad to see younger generations appreciating Pink Floyd I went to both concerts when they came to Kansas City about 14 years apart it broke me from going to concerts no other band can come close the sad part is watching the concert on video is like watching fireworks on video you don't get the full dimensional effect, jaw-dropping yes I am a male but I also had tears in my eyes from all the beauty and the beautiful sound of that concert
Another Great reaction. The pulse concert was beyond great, showcasing the bands talent and just how much the audience loves them. Life is never the same after Pink Floyd gets into your mind and heart. As a lifelong fan I welcome you to the fold. A lifetime of enjoyment has opened and music appreciation will ever be changed. keep up this fantastic journey and thank you.
It wasn't Pink Floyd. Without Roger Waters, you don't have Pink Floyd. That'd be like trying to have a Zeppelin tour without Robert Plant. It doesn't work.
Dave Gilmour isn't just the greatest rock guitarist ever, he is truly an incredible human being. He loves to see OTHERS succeed and we see this in how he was happy to sit back and let Tim Renwick shine. The man is humble with an ego made of neutronium (as in, not fragile), He sold his entire guitar collection and donated all of the money to battling climate change. I call him "St. David". The crowd isn't tame, they're completely mesmerised and in awe.
Pulse is one of the two concerts I wished I was at - had to make do with watching when it was shown late one night on TV in 1994. The other is Queen at Wembley 86.
Saw Pulse and saw Queen on their first 3 tours, those shows would easily rival Wembley for musical excellence, try any shows on YT from 73 - 76 and feel the Power and Glory!
The production for the Pulse shows was superb,the sound was perfect and the light show and effects were insane..Floyd played 14 perfect performances at Earls Court to finish the tour 🎶
Your reactions to Pink Floyd...are amazing...wish you could have had a chance to see them live....Haven seen them multiple times...i have to say that first...it all comes down to respecting the artists in front of you....and like Todd mentioned, we were caught in the moment by all that was happening...but again...we were respecting the artist and did not want to miss one second of it...
We were 80000 30 years ago, Stacey. Basically silent during songs and destroying our hands clapping at the end of each one. No smartphones. We all looked reality by our own eyes, not through a lens (my god, I don't want to say that we were better than today, just different😊). Personally I knew it was once in my lifetime. An extremely important total experience. Thank you for your reaction one more time!
@@Zen_Shot Well. The "Pulse' concerts were actually the Division Bell Tour ones. Most songs in Pulse (the album, DVD, etc) are actually from the concert @ Earls Court, London but not all of them. Some are from Rome, Modena (Italy) and Hannover. So technically, not all concerts of the Division Bell Tour are "Pulse" concerts, yes. The Earls Court ones make up most of what's in Pulse, yes. But Pulse doesn't imply Earls Court. And most importantly, the show was the same in other cities as well.
Let's give due appreciation to Tim Renwick, the lead guitar soloist here, who gave the amazing back up (absolutely critical) performance here, and on and other PULSE tour gigs.
I've said this before but the reason these people look so happy is because David Gilmour and the Pink Floyd boys give their backup musicians way more than their 15 minutes of Fame!!! Everybody gets to stand up on the stage in front and do something amazing and their backup group of musicians are not really backups!!! They're all top notch musicians and a lot of them either have their own records or have done their own music or are with other major groups.
Beautiful reaction! I guess what remains to be seen is their masterpiece "Shine On You Crazy Diamond"... which they open the Pulse concert with.... just f***in awesome!!! Can't wait!
I get such a kick out of watching you so thoroughly enjoy the musical soundtrack of my life. Thank you, thank you, thank you. And yes, I would LOVE to watch the entire concert straight through with you. Let's GOOO!!!
🇨🇦 I got to see concerts with great bands like the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, the Who, the Moody Blues and Santana, but never got to see Pink Floyd or Led Zeppelin live ! 🇨🇦
I love re-discovering Pink Floyd through your first reactions! Though I attended the Pulse Concert in 1994 I still thoroughly enjoy watching you first discover and actually prefer these over the CD or Album. Keep up the fun!!! 👍
Seeing the band perform was great every time I saw them, twice with Waters and twice without. The band sounded every bit as good either way. I loved Water's songwriting and concepts but without the rest of the band, it is just lyrics on a page. Too bad but most don't notice whether he was there or not. Living in an imperfect world we are...
@@vicprovost2561 I appreciate both Waters and Gilmour; they both brought us great music, it's a shame they could not get along as they were both "head strong" individuals.
I've been listening to Pink Floyd since 1967. I think what I enjoy most about your reactions is that I get to hear/watch it for the first time again! Thank you for posting these!!! Much love from Tampa Bay, FL
Pink Floyd were already confirmed rock Legends at the time of this concert. Everyone who went including myself knew we were about to be treated to unparalleled greatness... an expansive catalog that has withstood the test of time, and a light show and production like no other. Suffice to say we were not disappointed. Between the surround sound sound effects (about a thousand times louder than what you're hearing here), and what appeared to be real helicopter spotlights searching the audience, you had every right to believe, if only for a few seconds, that an actual helicopter had somehow busted into the stadium and was searching the audience. It felt that real!
Stacey, I saw them live on this tour. It was awesome. That second guitar guy is Tim Renwick. He's played with Pink Floyd for many years, as well as. with many other well known artists like Alan parsons, Al Stewart, Elton john, David Bowie, Eric Clapton,
Pink Floyd was one of those bands that there albums sounded exactly like their stage performances. Many bands would “adjust” their music when outside of the studio, but they could never get close to their recording when played live.
In this concert it is one of the best interpretations of this song, much better than the one on the studio album, also the song is most heartfelt if you listen to it with the one that precedes it on the album that is called "The Happiest Days of our Lives"
There's no doubt that David Gilmore is the stand out member of Pink Floyd and the Pulse concert was one of the greatest ever performed by them. He replaced Sid Barrett as lead guitarist many years ago, late 60's I think. They wanted Jeff Beck to replace him but we're too scared to ask him. lol😂 In an interview with David Gilmore, he was asked what guitarist was his favourite... He answered that the guitarist he admired most was Jeff Beck. Jeff replaced Eric Clapton in a band called the Yardbirds which at a later date included Jimmy Page. Of these three, Jeff was the best. He developed a style of playing the electric guitar totally unique to any other. Every noted guitarist on the planet knows and admired Jeff's playing. I suggest that you take a look at one of Jeff's concerts called "Jeff Beck Live at Ronnie Scott's". Every performance in this concert is GOLD. I suggest that you should watch the entire concert or at least watch "Cause we ended as lovers". The last song at the concert is very noteworthy called "Where were You". A tune that Brian May from Queen said that is possibly the greatest song ever recorded on electric guitar. Enjoy.... Unfortunately Jeff died recently but was playing to packed houses still at the age of 78! Neil from Sydney Australia. Oh. By the way, I love your reactions.❤ Jeff Beck
Girl. You get it! Growing up in Los Angeles in the 80’s I have been to literally 100’s of concerts. If I could go back and revisit any concert. It would be this one! I saw them on this tour. It was truly magical. I stood there with tears rolling down my face the entire show. DG has a way of reaching into your soul and pull at your heart strings. It was awesome! Great reaction and more PF from Pulse 🤘🤘🤘
British crowds are usually very reserved at concerts. I was at a Pretenders concert in London at the Hammersmith Odeon and after the usual 3 song intro, one of the brits spoke and asked Chrissy Hynde for permission to dance while the band played.
"Wow, the production of the Pulse Concert was so good!" Yep. Best attracts best. Rest assured that every human being involved in that production was at or near the top of their craft. From the artists to the stage hands to the sound & lighting engineers. I've seen them live once - a truly amazing experience. You leave the venue floating on a musical cloud with your mind blown and a perma-grin. 😁
I can’t remember if you’ve reacted to David in Pompeii in 2016 but I have come to love that show. The production isn’t like this, nothing is, but there’s something more authentic and raw about his more recent shows that hits me harder. And I saw this tour live in 94 and it blew my mind. But as I’ve aged, along with David (although I’m 20 years younger than him), the atmospherics and joy from all of the musicians in 2016 just hits all the right notes for me.
It’s been said many time that you’ve never heard “loud” till you’ve seen Floyd live. Caught this set when the tour rolled though my town in ‘94 and this was the grand finale. That massive bass BOOM at the very end was so f’ing loud… you could actually see it’s sound wave ripple out from the stage. And when it hit you a split second later, it hurt from head to toe. And it was rad 🤘
I love the fact that someone else loves Pink Floyd as much as I do. "Another Brick in the Wall" was one of the first songs I heard from them in 1980. I remember feeling like I was another part of the band when I heard it. Seeing this reaction was great because the song still sounds amazing. These guys are timeless for me. Although "Pulse" is amazing, "The Delicate Sound of Thunder" album and video is also a fantastic live show, and those guys sure can play well. I love David, Richard, Nick, Tim, and even Dick Parry on the sax. The list goes on of friends for more than 50 years playing together because Tim has known the band all his life too and was on some of Roger's albums and concerts. That's why I guess David allowed him to play the solo on this song, because David is picky with his music. Guy Pratt has played with more bands than any other artist I know. He's such a pure talent, an amazing bass player that for sure David and the band said, "Yes chap, you're in!" He ended up marrying Richard Wright's daughter. I guess that makes him a real part of the Pink Floyd family. Roger, well, his ego was bigger than the music. He forgot that there's a reason why a band is called a band! Cheers, Stacey. Thank you again!
This live line-up is one of the best ones with two drummers. 😊 If you want to hear another such awesome example, take a look at Genesis's Old Medley from the 1992 Earl's Court gig in London. 🙂
Pink Floyd had great musicians for their previous tours. I saw them for their A Momentary Lapse of Reason tour (The Delicate Sound of Thunder was the live album/concert video from that tour). I lived in Sacramento, California, and didn't get a chance to go a lot of the big concerts that only came to the Bay Area (San Francisco/Oakland). If I remember rightly, it was after their main tour that Pink Floyd either added a bunch of other dates or were on a second leg, and Sacramento was on the list! I was shocked: No UK act that big could be expected to come to our city. It happened every now and then, but this was special. It was the only time I saw Pink Floyd, and it was life-changing. Almost all of the musicians were the same (except there was a saxophonist, Scott Page, and the other two singers with Durga McBroom were Rachel Savage and Margret Taylor) as for The Division Bell tour (which yielded the live album/concert video Pulse), but I didn't have a chance to go to San Francisco for that. In any case, thank you for a chance to reminisce and for your sensitivity to music (actually paying attention and considering it). I appreciate it. (P.S. If you feel inclined, check out "Yet Another Movie" from The Delicate Sound of Thunder; I think you've already reacted to "On the Turning Away" from the same)!
I always get so happy when you have taken a song from the Pulse concert for a first reaction. It is beautiful to see what it does to you Stacey👌🏼 I hope you will also listen to the song "Breathe (in the air) and the song that follows it and give your first reaction🙏
I was 14 when this single was released and the next morning we wrote on the classroom's blackboard "WE DON'T NEED NO EDUCATION" wow, time has passed by it seems like yesterday!!!
Concerts like Pink Floyd's Pulse, Nightwish at Wacken 2013, Queen at Live Aid are proof that time-travel will never be possible. Because if it was, those concerts would be swarming with time-travelers wanting to experience those concerts in person.
You make a great point. I am enjoying it all over again and seeing it from their perspective. I can’t help but to think back and relive those amazing days
Since Pink Floyd doesn't tour anymore, if you ever have the chance to see the tribute band, Australian Pink Floyd. They are amazing. And put on a great stage show with all the lights lasers and everything. It's the closest you'll get to seeing pink Floyd live. I got to see a tour of theirs in Utah where they performed the entire the wall album. Then after that they came back out which many people thought would just be an oncore song or 2. But instead, they put on a full second concert of Pink Floyd hits. It was great! I highly recommend it!
Don’t forget about the sound engineers who also contribute in making it sounds great together with the band. I’ve studied sound engineering and I can tell you it takes years of experience to create such a beautiful sound for a band and also don’t forget about the lighting experts. It’s a collaboration that has to work perfectly to create such a beautiful show and takes a lot of time to prepare because every hall or stage is different also so everytime a new setup is needed to make it an amazing experience
I'm very tempted to go and buy three cds of the pulse concert because I'm sure I will be wearing them out I just can't get enough of pink Floyd's outstanding musical genius and professionalism fantastic great reaction from a wonderful fan every thing you say echoes my thoughts completely rock on girl
Im definitely a Floyd fanatic, a major Pulse fanatic, as i appreciate the giftedness of the artists, and im also a bit of a Stacey fanatic!!! Keep up the great work! Thank you ❤
They played here (Edmonton, Alberta) in the football stadium in 1994. The attendance was about 55,000 people. I was about 10.6 km/6.6 miles away and I could hear them plain as day. It was LOUD!
I lost my voice for a day on the The Division Bell (Pulse) concert! I was dancing, crying completely overwhelmed because "OMFG! I am not dreaming! I am actually at a Pink Floyd concert!!!", singing along like this song or close to pass out, thinking "Ok, if I am dying now, it's fine! What could top this?" In short, the perfect groupie experience! 😂
I SAW THE DELICATE SOUND OF THUNDER CONCERT IN LOS ANGELES OMG THEY ROCKED!!!!!!!!!I BROKE INTO TEARS THE SECOND THE GUITAR PLAYED// I SAW THE MOVIE WHEN IT CAME OUT I LOVED IT LOVED IT!!!
Hi Stacey! The second guitar solo was Tim Renwick who used to support Al Stewart and was originally in a band called Sutherland Brothers and Quiver. He toured as support guitar with the Floyd and Eric Clapton for years. He’s sometimes overlooked in Pink Floyd live vids.
Gilmour has no business being as good as he is 😂 Tim Renwick was bloody good in this concert too
I truly understand what you mean. And it is just a term of endearment. But Gilmour was born with a gift. As was many of his generation. And he too was exposed and flirted with chemical dependency and unlike others of his generation. He overcame the temptations that destroyed and even took the life of great artist.

Not too many lead guitarists can say that they played with David Gilmour as rhythm.

I saw them in Germany on this tour with five times as many people in the crowd. It was the same, everyone was mesmerized by the production and sound.

One thing to mention about Pink Floyd concerts, the sound is so much deeper than other concerts, the bass is usually scrambling your insides
Pink Floyd has been my favorite band for many years. I'm 77 now and listen to PF daily. Thanks for another great reaction.
66, same story, 50 year fan, nothing else compares. Shine On!
The Female backup singers are Sam Brown, Claudia Fontaine, Durga McBroom. Sam Brown being the blonde. And the other solo guitarist is Tim Renwick.
Sam Brown was ridiculous in Great Gig in the Sky! What a f*****g voice!

It wasn't Pink Floyd. Without Roger Waters, you don't have Pink Floyd. That'd be like trying to have a Zeppelin tour without Robert Plant. It doesn't work.
@@simontemplar3359 BS!
Dave Gilmour isn't just the greatest rock guitarist ever, he is truly an incredible human being. He loves to see OTHERS succeed and we see this in how he was happy to sit back and let Tim Renwick shine. The man is humble with an ego made of neutronium (as in, not fragile), He sold his entire guitar collection and donated all of the money to battling climate change.
I call him "St. David".
The crowd isn't tame, they're completely mesmerised and in awe.
The British should bestow a knighthood to the members of PF, for all the music and joy they've brought to the world! The pride of England....
Pulse is one of the two concerts I wished I was at - had to make do with watching when it was shown late one night on TV in 1994. The other is Queen at Wembley 86.
Saw Pulse and saw Queen on their first 3 tours, those shows would easily rival Wembley for musical excellence, try any shows on YT from 73 - 76 and feel the Power and Glory!
The production for the Pulse shows was superb,the sound was perfect and the light show and effects were insane..Floyd played 14 perfect performances at Earls Court to finish the tour 🎶
Your reactions to Pink Floyd...are amazing...wish you could have had a chance to see them live....Haven seen them multiple times...i have to say that first...it all comes down to respecting the artists in front of you....and like Todd mentioned, we were caught in the moment by all that was happening...but again...we were respecting the artist and did not want to miss one second of it...
This is a JAM! love this performance!
We were 80000 30 years ago, Stacey. Basically silent during songs and destroying our hands clapping at the end of each one. No smartphones. We all looked reality by our own eyes, not through a lens (my god, I don't want to say that we were better than today, just different😊). Personally I knew it was once in my lifetime. An extremely important total experience. Thank you for your reaction one more time!
Earls Court capacity was 20,000
@@Zen_Shot Same tour. Turin, Italy
@@Zen_Shot Well. The "Pulse' concerts were actually the Division Bell Tour ones. Most songs in Pulse (the album, DVD, etc) are actually from the concert @ Earls Court, London but not all of them. Some are from Rome, Modena (Italy) and Hannover.
So technically, not all concerts of the Division Bell Tour are "Pulse" concerts, yes. The Earls Court ones make up most of what's in Pulse, yes. But Pulse doesn't imply Earls Court.
And most importantly, the show was the same in other cities as well.
Never been one of my fav Floyd songs but worth it for Gilmour’s guitar solo
Let's give due appreciation to Tim Renwick, the lead guitar soloist here, who gave the amazing back up (absolutely critical) performance here, and on and other PULSE tour gigs.
Guy is a solid bassist, but his talent really shines on this song!
I've said this before but the reason these people look so happy is because David Gilmour and the Pink Floyd boys give their backup musicians way more than their 15 minutes of Fame!!! Everybody gets to stand up on the stage in front and do something amazing and their backup group of musicians are not really backups!!! They're all top notch musicians and a lot of them either have their own records or have done their own music or are with other major groups.
Always look forward to seeing your Pink Floyd reactions. Thank you ☺️
David Gilmour is the reason the guitar was invented, super reaction as usual
There is a 4K Blueray edition of the pulse concert available. It was released to encapsulate the remaster/remix of the concert. Well worth the price.
Beautiful reaction! I guess what remains to be seen is their masterpiece "Shine On You Crazy Diamond"... which they open the Pulse concert with.... just f***in awesome!!! Can't wait!
I have Pink Floyd the wall on vinyl.
Cause it's recorded in analog. And I get a surround sound system. Sounds f****** great.
The best concert of all time
they'll still be watching pulse hundreds of years from now
The absolute truth, as long as humans enjoy Great Music they will listen to Pink Floyd!
nah, dems will censor all music.
I get such a kick out of watching you so thoroughly enjoy the musical soundtrack of my life. Thank you, thank you, thank you. And yes, I would LOVE to watch the entire concert straight through with you. Let's GOOO!!!
🇨🇦 I got to see concerts with great bands like the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, the Who, the Moody Blues and Santana, but never got to see Pink Floyd or Led Zeppelin live ! 🇨🇦
I love re-discovering Pink Floyd through your first reactions! Though I attended the Pulse Concert in 1994 I still thoroughly enjoy watching you first discover and actually prefer these over the CD or Album. Keep up the fun!!! 👍
That's sad because Roger Waters wrote most of this and wasn't in the band anymore. Pulse is not Pink Floyd.
@@simontemplar3359 Matter of opinion!
Seeing the band perform was great every time I saw them, twice with Waters and twice without. The band sounded every bit as good either way. I loved Water's songwriting and concepts but without the rest of the band, it is just lyrics on a page. Too bad but most don't notice whether he was there or not. Living in an imperfect world we are...
@@vicprovost2561 I appreciate both Waters and Gilmour; they both brought us great music, it's a shame they could not get along as they were both "head strong" individuals.
Nick Mason so relaxing as a drummer always wow
we all take a journey in life but you can bet Daves journey is more scenic, diverse and enchanting as most
I've been listening to Pink Floyd since 1967. I think what I enjoy most about your reactions is that I get to hear/watch it for the first time again! Thank you for posting these!!! Much love from Tampa Bay, FL
Pink Floyd were already confirmed rock Legends at the time of this concert. Everyone who went including myself knew we were about to be treated to unparalleled greatness... an expansive catalog that has withstood the test of time, and a light show and production like no other. Suffice to say we were not disappointed.
Between the surround sound sound effects (about a thousand times louder than what you're hearing here), and what appeared to be real helicopter spotlights searching the audience, you had every right to believe, if only for a few seconds, that an actual helicopter had somehow busted into the stadium and was searching the audience. It felt that real!
Yeah, you had to be there. No way to explain it.
@@Gramma_Holly you not only heard it, you felt it. Literal sound waves.
@@flubblert Yeah, it was amazing. I've never experienced anything like that concert.
Zeppelin, Floyd, Tool, and Rush. 15 of the greatest musicians ever. They just happened to form the 4 greatest rock groups ever.
Stacey, I saw them live on this tour. It was awesome. That second guitar guy is Tim Renwick. He's played with Pink Floyd for many years, as well as. with many other well known artists like Alan parsons, Al Stewart, Elton john, David Bowie, Eric Clapton,
Pink Floyd was one of those bands that there albums sounded exactly like their stage performances. Many bands would “adjust” their music when outside of the studio, but they could never get close to their recording when played live.
I discovered pink Floyd’s music a few years ago and have never been the same again! I hear you girl
"I don't know how the crowd didn't just jump up and start dancing ..." We couldn't. :-) We were too stoned.
Didn't stop that guy at David Gilmour's concert at the Royal Albert Hall in 2006... 😜
David is soooo cute! You can clearly see how much he is enjoying himself, smiling all the time. What a legend!
In this concert it is one of the best interpretations of this song, much better than the one on the studio album, also the song is most heartfelt if you listen to it with the one that precedes it on the album that is called "The Happiest Days of our Lives"
There's no doubt that David Gilmore is the stand out member of Pink Floyd and the Pulse concert was one of the greatest ever performed by them. He replaced Sid Barrett as lead guitarist many years ago, late 60's I think. They wanted Jeff Beck to replace him but we're too scared to ask him. lol😂
In an interview with David Gilmore, he was asked what guitarist was his favourite... He answered that the guitarist he admired most was Jeff Beck.
Jeff replaced Eric Clapton in a band called the Yardbirds which at a later date included Jimmy Page.
Of these three, Jeff was the best. He developed a style of playing the electric guitar totally unique to any other. Every noted guitarist on the planet knows and admired Jeff's playing.
I suggest that you take a look at one of Jeff's concerts called "Jeff Beck Live at Ronnie Scott's". Every performance in this concert is GOLD. I suggest that you should watch the entire concert or at least watch "Cause we ended as lovers".
The last song at the concert is very noteworthy called "Where were You".
A tune that Brian May from Queen said that is possibly the greatest song ever recorded on electric guitar.
Enjoy.... Unfortunately Jeff died recently but was playing to packed houses still at the age of 78!
Neil from Sydney Australia.
Oh. By the way, I love your reactions.❤
Jeff Beck
I didn't stand up and go wild when I watched this live because I was so mesmerised by the lighting and production paraphernalia.
I saw pink Floyd in the 80s while stationed in Germany, to this day, best concert i ever went to, theyre incredible
I can listen to anything Pink Floyd! ❤
Girl. You get it! Growing up in Los Angeles in the 80’s I have been to literally 100’s of concerts. If I could go back and revisit any concert. It would be this one! I saw them on this tour. It was truly magical. I stood there with tears rolling down my face the entire show. DG has a way of reaching into your soul and pull at your heart strings. It was awesome! Great reaction and more PF from Pulse 🤘🤘🤘
PF Pulse is a personal fav. I love it that, even though we're completrly different genretions, that these songs mean so much to you as well.
British crowds are usually very reserved at concerts. I was at a Pretenders concert in London at the Hammersmith Odeon and after the usual 3 song intro, one of the brits spoke and asked Chrissy Hynde for permission to dance while the band played.
"Wow, the production of the Pulse Concert was so good!" Yep. Best attracts best. Rest assured that every human being involved in that production was at or near the top of their craft. From the artists to the stage hands to the sound & lighting engineers. I've seen them live once - a truly amazing experience. You leave the venue floating on a musical cloud with your mind blown and a perma-grin. 😁
I can’t remember if you’ve reacted to David in Pompeii in 2016 but I have come to love that show. The production isn’t like this, nothing is, but there’s something more authentic and raw about his more recent shows that hits me harder. And I saw this tour live in 94 and it blew my mind. But as I’ve aged, along with David (although I’m 20 years younger than him), the atmospherics and joy from all of the musicians in 2016 just hits all the right notes for me.
It’s been said many time that you’ve never heard “loud” till you’ve seen Floyd live.
Caught this set when the tour rolled though my town in ‘94 and this was the grand finale. That massive bass BOOM at the very end was so f’ing loud… you could actually see it’s sound wave ripple out from the stage. And when it hit you a split second later, it hurt from head to toe.
And it was rad 🤘
The 2 guitar solos sold me on this version!!!!! I'm a 65 year old PF fan from the beginning! Great reaction!!!!!!
Treat yourself to the Pulse concert DVD Stacey and then you can watch it from start to end. It’s eargasmic !!!!!
I love the fact that someone else loves Pink Floyd as much as I do. "Another Brick in the Wall" was one of the first songs I heard from them in 1980. I remember feeling like I was another part of the band when I heard it. Seeing this reaction was great because the song still sounds amazing. These guys are timeless for me. Although "Pulse" is amazing, "The Delicate Sound of Thunder" album and video is also a fantastic live show, and those guys sure can play well. I love David, Richard, Nick, Tim, and even Dick Parry on the sax. The list goes on of friends for more than 50 years playing together because Tim has known the band all his life too and was on some of Roger's albums and concerts. That's why I guess David allowed him to play the solo on this song, because David is picky with his music. Guy Pratt has played with more bands than any other artist I know. He's such a pure talent, an amazing bass player that for sure David and the band said, "Yes chap, you're in!" He ended up marrying Richard Wright's daughter. I guess that makes him a real part of the Pink Floyd family. Roger, well, his ego was bigger than the music. He forgot that there's a reason why a band is called a band! Cheers, Stacey. Thank you again!
Love your reactions Stacey ❤ Floyd is a roller coaster & enjoy your expressions to their music as well 👏🏻😝
30 years ago! Think about IT! Just brilliant!
Nice to se your happy face again Staycey. You are great and so are PF. Cheers from a finn in Sweden ❤
Thank you for all the hard work in making these excellent videos.
I cant listen to this song without the ‘GO ON DO IT AGAIN’ and HOW CAN YOU HAVE PUDDING IF YOU DONT EAT YOUR MEAT’ screaming in my brain
the audience is mesmerized
What a tune, guitar work is amazing
This live line-up is one of the best ones with two drummers. 😊
If you want to hear another such awesome example, take a look at Genesis's Old Medley from the 1992 Earl's Court gig in London. 🙂
Pink Floyd had great musicians for their previous tours. I saw them for their A Momentary Lapse of Reason tour (The Delicate Sound of Thunder was the live album/concert video from that tour). I lived in Sacramento, California, and didn't get a chance to go a lot of the big concerts that only came to the Bay Area (San Francisco/Oakland). If I remember rightly, it was after their main tour that Pink Floyd either added a bunch of other dates or were on a second leg, and Sacramento was on the list! I was shocked: No UK act that big could be expected to come to our city. It happened every now and then, but this was special. It was the only time I saw Pink Floyd, and it was life-changing. Almost all of the musicians were the same (except there was a saxophonist, Scott Page, and the other two singers with Durga McBroom were Rachel Savage and Margret Taylor) as for The Division Bell tour (which yielded the live album/concert video Pulse), but I didn't have a chance to go to San Francisco for that. In any case, thank you for a chance to reminisce and for your sensitivity to music (actually paying attention and considering it). I appreciate it. (P.S. If you feel inclined, check out "Yet Another Movie" from The Delicate Sound of Thunder; I think you've already reacted to "On the Turning Away" from the same)!
Gilmour is the essence of Pink Floyd! Comfortably Numb demonstrates his guitar genius!
I always get so happy when you have taken a song from the Pulse concert for a first reaction. It is beautiful to see what it does to you Stacey👌🏼 I hope you will also listen to the song "Breathe (in the air) and the song that follows it and give your first reaction🙏
"Pulse" was recorded at several venues on the "Division Bell" tour. It is a stupefying live album.
This is where Pink Floyd really came into being, however, everything before this, led up to this great track.
I was 14 when this single was released and the next morning we wrote on the classroom's blackboard "WE DON'T NEED NO EDUCATION" wow, time has passed by it seems like yesterday!!!
Concerts like Pink Floyd's Pulse, Nightwish at Wacken 2013, Queen at Live Aid are proof that time-travel will never be possible. Because if it was, those concerts would be swarming with time-travelers wanting to experience those concerts in person.
We were jumping, and screaming, and singing along!
I love watching young people reacting to music I grew up on.
You make a great point. I am enjoying it all over again and seeing it from their perspective. I can’t help but to think back and relive those amazing days
I went to the 2nd night of Pink Floyd concert at Earls Court. I was 25 rows from the stage center. With out a doubt an experience that I treasure.
Since Pink Floyd doesn't tour anymore, if you ever have the chance to see the tribute band, Australian Pink Floyd. They are amazing. And put on a great stage show with all the lights lasers and everything. It's the closest you'll get to seeing pink Floyd live. I got to see a tour of theirs in Utah where they performed the entire the wall album. Then after that they came back out which many people thought would just be an oncore song or 2. But instead, they put on a full second concert of Pink Floyd hits. It was great! I highly recommend it!
I TOOK MY SON TO SEE BRIT FLOYD LOL!!!!
Also Brit Floyd. Both are fantastic
@@EricSmaug they were so much fun
Brit was in Texas back in the spring they will be around next year.
@@jim1125-cv6yg do whatever you have to go see them. I missed them here in AZ
Don’t forget about the sound engineers who also contribute in making it sounds great together with the band. I’ve studied sound engineering and I can tell you it takes years of experience to create such a beautiful sound for a band and also don’t forget about the lighting experts. It’s a collaboration that has to work perfectly to create such a beautiful show and takes a lot of time to prepare because every hall or stage is different also so everytime a new setup is needed to make it an amazing experience
I'm very tempted to go and buy three cds of the pulse concert because I'm sure I will be wearing them out I just can't get enough of pink Floyd's outstanding musical genius and professionalism fantastic great reaction from a wonderful fan every thing you say echoes my thoughts completely rock on girl
😮I love every live songs on this pulse concert better than the studio versions and to watch them play live is so exciting and breathtaking
Im definitely a Floyd fanatic, a major Pulse fanatic, as i appreciate the giftedness of the artists, and im also a bit of a Stacey fanatic!!! Keep up the great work! Thank you ❤
They played here (Edmonton, Alberta) in the football stadium in 1994. The attendance was about 55,000 people. I was about 10.6 km/6.6 miles away and I could hear them plain as day. It was LOUD!
I lost my voice for a day on the The Division Bell (Pulse) concert! I was dancing, crying completely overwhelmed because "OMFG! I am not dreaming! I am actually at a Pink Floyd concert!!!", singing along like this song or close to pass out, thinking "Ok, if I am dying now, it's fine! What could top this?" In short, the perfect groupie experience! 😂
I SAW THE DELICATE SOUND OF THUNDER CONCERT IN LOS ANGELES OMG THEY ROCKED!!!!!!!!!I BROKE INTO TEARS THE SECOND THE GUITAR PLAYED// I SAW THE MOVIE WHEN IT CAME OUT I LOVED IT LOVED IT!!!
I had the chance to see them during this tour in 1994, in Basel and Lausanne. It was incredible, i haven't come back down yet... 😊
Heard this song the other day on Sirus Classic Rewind and wished you’d react to the song. So glad you did. Such a classic.
the music of my youth..nice to see you react to this music
This is brilliant but the original is truly fantastic perhaps I'm old and remember when it was released
Hi Stacey! The second guitar solo was Tim Renwick who used to support Al Stewart and was originally in a band called Sutherland Brothers and Quiver. He toured as support guitar with the Floyd and Eric Clapton for years. He’s sometimes overlooked in Pink Floyd live vids.
