The Wall: Roger Waters 2010


Many of you know that Roger Waters is doing a 100 stop 30th anniversary tour of The Wall this year.

Anyone been to the show yet?

fwiw I was about 2/3 of the way back and half way up on the right side of the Palace at Auburn Hills, a venue that holds about 18,000 people.

Also at the end of the concert they played some bass tones that had to be in the 20hz - 30hz range, I felt them more than heard them, at a very loud, gut churning, level.

Roger pushed the limits of the experience...
Glad to hear more experiences. Philjolet, I remember seeing the Division Bell tour in Montreal sitting 18th row and Gilmore and band played Sorrow from Momentary Lapse of Reason. The bones inside my ears started vibrating and rattling around, and during the first few seconds in the beginning of that song, I thought I would not hear again.

I never put much though into the acoustics but I heard the most earth rattling and disturbing bass I'd ever imagined. I went to a couple of other shows on that tour and never had that rattling of ear drum bones again. Makes me wonder about impact explosions in the military.

There are still tickets out there folks. I'm not related to the band (wish I was) but scoop them up while you can.
Saw the show in Jersey. It was great. Highly recommended.
Good tickets were being scalped for under 40 bucks.
"Also, there was too much trying to appeal to the masses through words on screens and suggestions. Could have done with a simpler performance."Bjesien
Really? What a ridiculous observation.Could it be your political views did not match that of Roger Waters? Simpler performance??? The theatrics were mind blowing and made up 80% of the fun.
Dreadhead, my good frind Mike saw the show in NJ on November 3'rd and loved it.

Yeah, I agree fully with Roger waters and the political message but don't like to have one liners streamed in text trying to say how I should feel about something. Those texts, IMHO dumb down the performance aspect, or perhaps, and I hope, make the message more clear for lesser Floyd fans in the arena.

It's kind of like seeing a plastic "Buy local produce" bumper sticker on the back of a car. No shit, I think.

I agree the theatrics were awesome.
