David Gilmor

Pink Floyd hands down my favorite group of all times. I’m currently watching a David Gilmor concert in Rome and so far I’m just not carrying for it. And I totally understand that he is older than me and out there still doing it.

I never bough The Wall not because I didn’t like it rather I was at a stage in life were I just didn’t buy any music. I was bummed out after Roger Water left. I seen it as truly the end of Pink Floyd. When Pink Floyd played Rice stadium the wife was surprised that I didn’t buy tickets. Instead I made a picnic basket and we rode our bikes over to the stadium parked at asses in the shade and drank wine and munched out while listening to them.

When Rick Wright died I knew it was the end of Pink Floyd for me. I really admired that Gilmor said he would never preform Echoes again because it would not be the same without Rick Wright. Echoes is my favorite Pink Floyd song.

More proof that old age really just plain sucks .

Comfortably Numb from Pompei is maybe my favorite Gilmore work.

I often wondered how did they ever get by with just the 4 of them? Sure back up singers a saxophone player And some very talented people running the sound board.

Yeah there are some bands that just seem to rise above, despite having few members.

Rush was also pretty amazing considering they were just a trio.

Rush is one of my least favorite bands.
ZZ Top did great thing with 3 musicians.

The night I seen Rush Geddy Lee’s fingers turned into snakes.

A buddy and I are off to see Gilmour play the Hollywood Bowl at the end of October. I’ve been fortunate to see Pink Floyd multiple times, but I’ve never see Dave on a solo tour. I’m pretty excited.

I see that Sony bought the rights to Pink Floyd’s music today for $400 million. They were up for a $500 million deal several years back, but Waters managed to get the deal scotched with some poorly timed political comments. F- Roger Waters, what a deluded, self- important windbag.
