Wow

Pink Floyd has always been my favourite band. Since the late 70s.

I don't have to imagine being there - I was at 2 of the Earls Court gigs and they were 2 of the greatest nights of my life . The really weird thing about those nights was, when we were leaving EarlsCourt, thd crowd was almost completely silent. I can remember standing on the platform of the tube station and no- one said a word. We were all just looking at each other with that "WTF just happened" look in our eyes. Totally amazing.

I neer3 really for into pink Floyd until my earlygto mid 20's. Which wasn't very long 🙂 this song (and this live version) quickly became my favourite track.

My employer (Labatt Breweries of Canada) was the sponsor for the three shows in Montreal, they were offering employees discounted tickets, in addition to a draw of a few dozen tickets I bought mine for May 23 and I won those (a pair) for May 24. So I saw this concert twice, at the Olympic Stadium in Montreal. Some people have asked me, "Why are you going to see this show twice?" When they finally saw the video of this show a few years later, they understood why I was there twice.

Epic guitar solo!!!

I just cry every time I listen to this song. This guitar solo is historical! That was phenomenal and so emotional, that was just splendid and extremely powerful! I was there that specific day, I was really young. After the concert, we were walking in silence, thinking about this phenomenal concert, looking at the stage sometimes just to remember this moment forever before we leave for good. I also remember the smell of joints, especially in front of the stage (yes, that was, of course, forbidden, but ... Pink Floyd is Pink Floyd, right? Some people couldn't resist!). Now, when I listen to this guitar solo, I always remember that the sound was everywhere around us: spectacular, massive, imposing, powerful, but also perfectly clean! It was so impressive and so imposing. Like: the massive, colossal, powerful, and majestic Pink Floyd machine directly connected to your soul! And I can tell you that we were all vibrating. 90% of the time, during a concert, people are talking, laughing, and having good times; but during this concert, everybody was literally speechless. No stupid or annoying people. Everybody was just "connected". It was like, being in a parallel universe where everything was completely different. That was phenomenal and special, almost "magic" so to speak. And so many people were there, something like 16,300 people. I kept the tickets by the way, hehe - And today, I'm still proud to say _"I WAS THERE, WITH PINK FLOYD THAT DAY!"_
